I think he's a fairly young guy so I don't see why not.
The problem is, he is playing in an unattractive league like Turkey and when players who are playing on fire in England and Germany can't get a look in under Domemench, then you really do worry.
I would like to see him given a chance in Les Bleus setup for the Hungary friendly.

Played for Metz and is considered as an excellent and very creative player. I question his reasons for moving in Turkey, while he could have played in a better league. He undoubtly has a chance with France, but we are not lacking of very good players, even if we are lacking a very good team.
As a (tragic) trivia, his face was broken in a car crash when he was a child.

yeah L'OL made an offer 8.5M euro but Gala did not accepted.I think Turkey is right choice for him because he is direct first 11 player he is not a big backup for the team. is he develops himself he will be wondefull player :) :)

He's a really nice player... Good pace, he's very good on the left of the midfield but can also play on the right. Every Metz game I saw before they offloaded him, he was their best player. Pierre-Henri is right about his face though..... I never new what happened to him, always looked like he had been burnt pretty bad. Kind of makes you root for him even more.

Yes, overcome such a trauma in your youth and become a european-class player is worthy of all the admiration we can share.

being the n°1 scorer when playing for a poor team can sometimes be misleading. if the whole team is playing for you, and if the opponents are always playing to win, never draw, the goals can come easier than if you're one of 5 or 6 possible scorers on a team everybody plays carefully.
but being the n°1 passer is different. i think ribery is the real thing. every match, every match, he's there.
