4-3-3? 4-4-2? And Who Will Play Against Austria

I’ve checked my usual news sources and am not seeing a starting lineup anywhere yet, but I’ll keep my eye out today. If you find one, be sure to send me the link. (English or French.)

The big question is what Domenech is going to do with the OL and Bordeaux players who are facing the Coupe de la Ligue final on Saturday. My memory is telling me we have 9 Lyon players called up for this game, plus Rio Antonia Mavuba for Bordeaux. So will Domenech play them, or will he have mercy on the club managers for a change? I’ll let you know.

So in the absence of actual news, tell me who you’d like to see play and in what formation. What did you think of 4-4-3? And who would you like to see playing tomorrow?

For me? I’m still not sure about 4-4-2 vs. 4-3-3. But I think my dream team would be some version of:

Coupet; Sagnol, Mexes, Gallas, Abidal; L. Diarra, Nasri, Toulalan; Benzema, Anelka, Malouda

P.S. I know there’s a great caption for this photo somewhere in my brain, but I haven’t had enough caffeine yet to think of it.
