Wonder if there'll be ITK immediately after France get knocked out?

However, watching this shite makes me question whether I'd want Blanc.

In fighting again with the players, not really down to Blanc, the French players have egos the size of the moon it seems. Did Nasri touch the ball or make an effort when he came on?

Blanc looked disgusted with them at the end.

Now we wait...lol

With a chest as pumped up as his it's difficult to breathe let alone run and contribute.

Got to say that both Blanc and AVB have potential question marks at this stage. Yes the french have issues but Blanc should manage those issues particularly in a Euro Quarter final. Seemed they were hoping for a set piece goal and displayed a lack of ambition.Hodgson would be castigated in this country for that performance.

I'm not sold on him as good as Spain are. And anyone using the they were playing Spain excuse may as well be trumpeting prandelli or Capello as both had results against the Spanish.

AVB's question marks are known but my gut just seems to lean toward him as being a better choice. I can't put my finger on it. Maybe it's Blanc's Monty Python chin fluff.

But they are also not a team. They're a bunch of individuals and that never bodes well for excitement.
Yep, agreed, France certainly. Don't think it reflects badly on Blanc. They didn't kill each other, however much they were individuals, so Blanc might get the Nobel Peace Prize or a posting to Syria with the UN. If he doesn't join us. Which I rather hope he does. Spain play very capably (understatement). But I would rather watch Death and Time play an endless game of chess.

I watched this one. But some people might not have. Please don't ruin the game for them. This is the 3rd straight day people have come here and talked about the day's game. Some people might be watching it delayed.
i was gonna say this in the pm you sent me yesterday but:
the last place people should be going to avoid seeing talk about a football match, is a football forum. :cautious:

Sweeper goalkeeper!
Villa-Boas wants one and he's Blanc's international goalkeeper.

Welcome to the Lane, Hugo Lloris!

I'm sorry, but on a football forum I think it's fair enough to discuss a big football match that has just finished. If someone hasn't seen it and doesn't want to know the score, they should be avoiding the internet, especially football forums! Just my opinion..
