Comments on: Why Henry Shouldn’t Have Started With Trézéguet http://france.worldcupblog.org/euro-2008/why-henry-shouldnt-have-started-with-trezeguet.html France - World Cup - South Africa 2010 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 03:09:10 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Laurie http://france.worldcupblog.org/euro-2008/why-henry-shouldnt-have-started-with-trezeguet.html/comment-page-1#comment-49809 Laurie Sun, 11 Feb 2007 16:24:00 +0000 http://france.worldcupblog.org/euro-2008/why-henry-shouldnt-have-started-with-trezeguet.html#comment-49809 Alex, I still don't get Domenech. I can't decide if he's brilliant or just lucky and benefiting from other people's work. I'm thinking I don't agree with his Henry obsession, though. I'm not sure the team should be built around him the way it has been. (And Arsene Wenger agrees with me!) :-) Alex, I still don’t get Domenech. I can’t decide if he’s brilliant or just lucky and benefiting from other people’s work.

I’m thinking I don’t agree with his Henry obsession, though. I’m not sure the team should be built around him the way it has been. (And Arsene Wenger agrees with me!) :-)

In general you're right. I think this game could have been an exception. Trezeguet is Argentinian, so the French public really wanted him to play. (How many articles did I see these past couple of weeks about Trezeguet the Argentinian? Lots!) And have you heard the ovations for Anelka the last two times he's been subbed in? He's not just my favorite bad boy, he's France's too. Everybody loves a redemption story, and Anelka has SO much talent. So in this game, starting Anelka and Trezeguet might have worked. Possibly never again. “How many French fans would be able to accept a national side without Henry starting?”

I would argue he's not a good coach. France succeeded in Germany in spite of him and thanks to a couple of breaks - nothing wrong with luck! You need this in life and sports. As for Trezeguet, I feel for him. He has been a superb striker for France and Juventus. True, he is in Serie B but do not equate this with going soft. Serie B is a highly competitive league. More than people think. Of the two, while Henry is without question world class and in better form, Trezeguet does not fall as easily as Henry. Which brings me back to Domenech. This guy is rich. Hasn't kept his mouth shut since he lost to Italy and continues to babble about Materazzi. Let it go, lad. Did he not notice the antics of his own players in Henry and Malouda? Deal with your own team, Ray. Zidane had no one but himself to blame no matter what the French PR machine had to say. I was in France soon after. It was ridiculous how some French fans viewed it. Talk about skirting accountability. At least French soccer magazines were having none of it. Don't mean to rehash this but in my opinion France is better off without Domenech. Hopefully the superb Deschamps one day makes it there. Anyway, I'm afraid you're right. Perhaps it is time for Trez. to move on. But I will say this: France has the talent to play two strikers or one or whatever they choose. They have more options than England. They're pretty much like Brazil, Argentina and Italy in this way. Lot of depth there. Just my opinion. First Domenech. I would argue he’s not a good coach. France succeeded in Germany in spite of him and thanks to a couple of breaks – nothing wrong with luck!

I was just curious to see what went wrong. I'm quite sick of the way Trezeguet gets the blame for everything. I'm a Titi fan, but honestly, I didn't see the same Titi who plays for the Gunners. ps: Laurie, u gotta check out this video of zizou riding a horse. <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/flo_6/video/x1609a_zidaneelatf107" rel="nofollow">http://www.dailymotion.com/flo_6/video/x1609a_zidaneelatf107</a> I watched the match after I came to know the score.

Henry or no Henry, Domenech has to find the courage and creativity to try a few new options. In the final analysis, it’s up to the coach to fix it.
