France finally got back in business after their poor wc performance + against tunisia and cyprus by pulling off another their favorite "5-0" win over slovenia.

France wins 5-0, 9 black guys on the pitch, Slovenia wasn't there, 80,000 people, i think this team can win Euro 2004.
Anyways your thoughts on the game freinds.

I didn't get to see the game obviously, but there are no bad 5-0 wins. This team, healthy and rested, can acheive anything. Of course, this is Slovenia, so we can't get too ridiculous.

What if Italy and Germany for example had 9 black players. How much better would they be then ? My point is why did you find it necessary to mention that.

[Papa Bouba Diop]

Why? i don't know, it's just funny, Candela, Lizarazazu, Petit, Pires and Trezegol were missing.

[SportBoy321]

Trezeget isn't white I don't think.

[Papa Bouba Diop]

hes got a nice tan going for him.

They're saying the same about Arsenal. Better physique, more pace?

I don't think it makes that much of a difference though. Just brought to our attention by commentators who can't think of any thing else to say.
