Will Ribery make the French squad for the World Cup? He's
a class player, though I don't think he plays like Zidane - I
see him as a winger who creates chances with his dribbling.

France has always relied on one player. platini first then zidane, they always have one genius in midfiled who get them through every time. i think thas the main reason. they need to get bigger than that be able to play without having to have leader. because they will be transition times where they wont have a leader like these two to get them where they need to be.

Well, if we win as many tournaments each time we find our hero, the French sinusoid doesn't bother me too much. Now, if we have to wait 30 years between two of these periods...

does henry drop as deep for France as for Arsenal?
Usually, I think not. But if Ganu was in place of Domenech, he would have the solution (http://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showpost.php?p=8243961&postcount=26). ;)

Let's bring both of them.
are there 2 evras?
No. And it's likely there won't be even one...;)

Reveillere should make the squad at all. i don't think ya'll need Cisse, personalmente. Ribery and Govou are more dangerous. also, about Dhorasoo, i think he's great but i just can't see him really being that good at international level. especially compared to the other players you've got in your pool.

I'd almost state the opposite. The problem with Vikash is that he seems to chose the games he will be motivated for ; which make his performances in championship matches far from being consistant.
