You obviously don't know the history between the two teams.

I agree, his substitutions were the worst. Govou wasn't doing anything out there and he puts in a dude that is like 5'5?? How is he supposed to get a head on the ball when Malouda or Ribery put a good cross in there. Malouda had that one cross where Gignac was at the near post and nobody was at the back(where the short guy should have been). A player like Henry that is competent and has experience would have been in position for a good header in. Domenech should be stoned, dude is a bumb.Originally Posted by tonton32
not a supporter of les bleus but...Domenechwhat has this man done to france...where did he get his coaching license frm? no team cohesion whats so ever, no tactical approach, and absolutely awful substitutions! this (*&^*& has henry cisse and gourcuff on the sideline and doesnt play either of em

this! is why i cant stand it when mexico wins... their fans are amongst the most delusional in football. it's a shame too because i actually think mexico are a fun team to watch, other than a few key players.

That's why I said you start conservative and reassess at halftime. Let's say both games are tied 0-0 at the half. Mexico still has a 4 goal cushion on France. Is attacking to win the game really an unnecessary risk when it creates a much easier path to the QF? It's not like they'll be completely oblivious to what's going on in the other game. If they get news that France has suddenly gone up 2 goals, they can pull the troops back and defend. It's not like France will score 3 goals at the same time, while Mexico gives up a goal that very same moment. That's what'd have to happen for Mexico to lose here.

What does being unafraid have ANYTHING to do with getting eliminated in the round of 16? So you can't be unafraid if you lose? We know what level we're at, we know where we stand. We don't claim we're an elite team, but we do know we play hard and we don't bunker and play scared like other national teams. You should know about that...Originally Posted by PlatinumFunk

that is what i want to know!
Why doesn't my man play, was it a bad season with Barcelona? Did he just fall off completely?
I thought he was supposed to be one of the best strikers of our time

It's hard to tell with Domenech at the helm, he could've read Henry's horoscope and felt that he wouldn't do well in South Africa (not kidding).
But Henry's best kicks are undoubtedly behind him. He's sort of in the Jordan-on-the-Wizards stage of his career. He can still put up impressive performances here and there, but he's not the force he used to be, and France has other, younger options. He wouldn't be thinking of a move to MLS if he was still capable of changing games at the World Cup.

Well well well... first a red then down a goal!
This changes everything...
Trigger-happy ref...
Klose is out of the next game, but everything resets for the elimination-rounds right?

I #%%%@$ hate card happy referees. Is this guy for real? Is he trying to beat the Russian referee's record from the Portugal/Holland match in 2006?
Klose didnt deserve a yellow on either one of those challenges.
Anyways, this group will be extremely spicy if Serbia hold on.

Tim Cahill was sent off against Germany in that 1st game for a stupid foul from behind...now it's Klose's turn...
half time...what seems to be an easy mission is turning out to be an uphill battle...
