Based on the last 2 games, what does Domenech need to do to get a win against Ireland in the next matchup?
What are France's main weaknesses at this point and does he fix them?
Any predictions?

I think people are too harsh with a team under reconstruction.
Losing half of your team and a player like Zidane is disturbing to say the least.
The 1st half of the Bosnia match should have ended 2-0, if Henry hadn't missed the penalty, against Israel we had a lot of chances a lot of one on one with the goalie, and in the Faroe if Henry, Cissé and Vieira are more inspired and more fit then it would have been a different story.
Weakness : we lose the ball too rapidly, the team is not too confident when under pressure, there is no one to organise our attacks, even though i liked what Dhorasoo did in the 2nd half. H was quite a relief.
But i think they're getting better as they're playing.
In a month, things will be different, they'll be more fit.

I know absolutely nothing about this guy except that he plays for Milan and that his last call-up was years ago. Is he a good fit for the current lineup?
Also, whats the word with Trezequet?

Well, if he keeps playing like that yes.
Too bad he's not very physical.

Arghhh, you found my secret hiding place.
Mal, i'm telling you like i told you before : Don't come come to Paris it'll be a mistake.
Being ridiculed in front of the whole of Europe will be tough for you.
We love Ireland in France so please give up now. For your sake :)

Andy Reid is gonna pull of an O'Driscoll ;).
It'll be a good match I reckon, and a lot tougher on you lot without Makalele or Vieira; if we exploit that correctly, and Silvestre sees the pitch, anything can happen. We are the underdogs, obviously, but ask the Dutch how that works out.
