Clementona’s remark re: French colonial legacy in football is on-point. But, uh, Le Pen would like it back.

There have also been no international games since July 2006, further proving Ned’s point.

Man, I totally forgot to implement that. And will continue to do so tomorrow. Sorry.

Is it just me, or does Anelka look awfully twisty and bendy in that first picture (like, unnaturally so)? And in the second picture it looks like they’re about to have a particularly passionate make-out session.

BTW, my demand for more cute puppies with soccer-related items has gone unheeded. Boo.

Ned, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Yes, the world anxiously waits the opinion of a fourth rate defender playing on a 5th rate team… why not ask a canadian soccer player for his opinion?

Domenech took his team to the WC finals where they lost in PK, so I think he should tell everyone to Maradona him.
he got blasted years ago when he called Ribery instead of Guily or Clichy or some never-was. Seems like that was a good call.
And when he brought back the old fart Barthez for the 2006 world cup he was again blasted for not using Gregore jacquet I believe…. again, his pick ended up going to PK in teh Final.
Im not saying he is a good coach but he was getting blasted for his good decisions and he went to the Finals.

The italian coach who WON that damn final is getting blasted in Italy for the past 2 years and HE WON the last cup.

So please stop it with the Domenech storylines, the new french generation of offensive french players are NOT the same caliber as the 90s teams.
As for an irishman criticizing another coach, at least the french team has a french coach, the british teams dont know enough so they have to import italians.
Traps showed them the whining and moaning pretty good.
Any day now, they will master the dive.

Their transformation will be complete when they are fitted for new kits and vaginas.

Agreed, but it was excessive. Italian excessive even. Not even playing to the whistle, but giving up on balls in order to complain. I am not a fan of Trapattoni’s influence on what has the potential to be a much more competitive team.
