Rothen, kapo, saha, marlet, cisse, Desailly, lizarazu, coupet..list goes on, surely the favourites.

Is Zidane's omission purposeful?

 

[Slagathor]

A necessity I'd say, after watching the friendly against Holland roughly a month back.

BTW Steph, was in Brussels again the other day. Never know in which language to start a conversation. Any unwritten rules to that?

 

[Martin]

Rothen might just edge out Pires there... maybe.

 

[Stephañho!]

I don't think so, Martin.

Erik: Although Brussels is located in Flemish territory (Vlaamse Brabant), up to 85% of Brussels inhabitants actually speak French as their mother-language. Some outskirts are also totally French-speaking, to a couple of Flemish leaders' biggest despair. That's why Brussels is such a sensible subject between politicians from both communities.

I most of that. Except the 85% part. Astonishing. So French is the better bet then. I'll remember that! Thanks!

Hydde: Playing Evra and only one proper DM is the best way to expose France to deadly counter-attacks.

Erik: Where and why do/did you go to Brussels, if you don't mind my asking?

No I don't mind. Went to a concert in the Ancienne Belgique and stayed at hostel Génération Europe west of the centre near metro station Comte de Flandre. You know it? Had a wicked time as I always do when I visit Brussels. Really love that city.

Good for you!

L'Ancienne Belgique is a fine concert hall, well located too. It's fairly small though, but I guess it's precisely that intimate feeling to it that people appreciate there. Which band was playing?... Comte de Flandre-Zwarte Vijvers isn't the nicest nor safest part of the town however.

We should arrange a meeting in Europe's capital one of these days.

So I noticed. I'm not an exceedingly rich or posh person myself and I live in a similar neighbourhood in The Hague so I wasn't very intimidated though.

L'Ancienne Belgique is indeed very intimate. I got to just couple of meters from the stage, very nice.

Not a bad idea. You tend to miss a lot if you wander through town without anyone who really knows the place. I did stumble across that ... what do I call it ... boulevard? The one that offers a really nice view of the city. It's behind that big statue that has some significant Belgian dates on it such as 1830 and 1944.

 

[Stephañho!]

Bvd Anspach? Bvd Lemmonier? Avenue Louise? Avenue de la Toison d'Or? Rue Royale?

 

[Slagathor]

Couldn't tell you if my life depended on it. All I remember is that statue, then I had to climb some stairs, then on both my right and left hand side were exceedingly ugly modern buildings and from the edge (railing) I could see the city skyline. Nice view.

Zidane never turns up for friendlies. His body double just takes a strole around the pitch for a bit.

[flieeeekke]

this formation with a little more experience on defence would work wonders
