Ribery is an absolute no-brainer like a few others but I just hope it does come together on the field. I guess there is a lesson to be learned from the Azzuri in terms of playing as a team (yuck, did I just say that?). Winning this Euro, given the group of death, and what could be a really hard road to the final would be a brilliant success, alongside the Euro 2000 (which - and I know this may be heresy in some circles - remains to me the greatest achievement of Mes Bleus Precieux) I know it’s been said a million times but the team, especially with Reibery playing like he has been at Bayern, just looks phenomenal.

If those two are on fire at the Euros, then there should be 9 other able bodies, Makalele, Toulalan, Anelka, Gallas - these fairly reliable types, to make up the numbers. It's a big "if" though, because players' form so often seems to desert them when they change environments. Also, Domenech might botch things completely and start Benzema from the bench.

I watch Bayern a lot, mainly for him. He's just extraordinary. I desperately hope he'll be on fire at the Euros. Same with Benzema. Those two are just about two of the most exciting players to watch in world football today. RIBERY ROCKS!!! I watch Bayern a lot, mainly for him. He’s just extraordinary.

What a trajectory in 5 years! He doesn't have ZZ's shy persona, he is more a of Gavroche-like figure, funny, loud, bragging, but that seems to get other players to respond very positively. Here's a little gem from not so long ago: http://www.dailymotion.com/relevance/search/Ribery/video/x4me3m_superbe-but-de-ribery-anderlecht-05_sport supposedly, he had placed a E 100 bet that he would score this one!

No one will fault him for including those three in his summer plans. He’s got a few no-brainers for the final selection. No one will fault him for including those three in his summer plans.
