Fred, gonna watch France's game?

 

[Fred]

Yup, definitely.

We may get to see Payet's debut today. Blanc might even play Nasri and Gourcuff together.

 

[Gabriel]

I dunno how to feel about that, but i definitely want to see if they're able to play together. If so, it would be great.

 

[Fred]

I think its a better bet than having to see the likes of Valbuena play on that right hand side. In all cases, when Ribery is back, he'll probably occupy the right, with Florent on the left, Nasri and Gourcuff will be back to fighting for one position.

With Gourcuff being so average for Lyon this season, while Nasri has been one of Arsenal's top peformers, Yoan's place in the NT is no longer guaranteed.

 

[Gabriel]

Yeah but Yoann is Blanc's spoiled child.

 

[Fred]

I wouldn't be too sure of that, he was his spoiled child at Bordeaux, because he was their best player, he never had to face a situation where Gourcuff was off form, and Blanc had a better option on the bench.

 

[Gabriel]

I dunno what to think about Blanc tbh, after saying that he would only call Toulalan to be a CB.

 

[Fred]

Ya, up till now he's made some extremely odd decisions

I don't understand why he doesn't call up Toulalan, he is imo a lot better than any of France's other central mids. I hope he comes back to his senses soon.

I also wish he can take advantage of players like Menez. Menez while inconsistent, is a really good talent, and imo he should be called up, at least as backup to the wingers.

 

[Gabriel]

He said Toulalan needs time to adapt to his new position and blah blah, as if he magically forgot how to play as CM , also i doubt Toulalan can be worse than Rami as CB.

I like Menez a lot, he has been getting call ups so i guess we can kinda expect him to be part of the team, is Blanc planning to use Ribery on the right when fit? Imo he's better on the left but with Malouda's form it would be a crime to bench him.

Watching a re-run of Germany-Turkey.

Germany are possibly the side in world football, club or country, who's style I enjoy the most.

And the crowd is awesome. The stadium is pretty much full, and half the folk there are Turks.

 

[Bozi]

you will love the dedication from the Turkish fans in booing every touch Ozil takes for the whole game

[Gabriel]

what time is that match, Blondu?

 

[X Æ A-12]

Its about to start right now

 

[X Æ A-12]

Boring game, neither team really looks like scoring.

 

[Red]

France seem to be passing the ball with a bit more purpose than they usually do when facing a packed defence.

 

[blondu]

i expected this domination...too bad for us that we don't calm ourself when we have the ball...i'm hoping for a better 2nd half but getting a point on stade de france ain't bad at all considering our actual team

 

[Red]

You contained them quite comfortably from what I've seen.

Your coach should get someone to man-mark Nasri, as everything is going through him.
