All I looked at was your draw from Hell, and I assumed that was the draw we had drawn. Scared the hell out of me. Don't do that Ganu, jeez....

My thoughts...

France are screwed.

Italy: It had to be - Randy will be going nuts and shall be trolling the board in the near future! That's gonna be a match and a half!

Ukraine: Up and coming side who gave France two solid games in 1998-99. And fo course they will have Shevchenko. Going to Kyiv is going to be hard.

Scotland and Lithuania are beatable but are tough and can gave les Bleus a hard time.

Georgia and the Faroe Islands - no question.
