Seems like the growing trend as caught on in trendy France. Should be interesting to see which guys actually get some playing time..... http://www.soccernet.com/europe/news/2002/0812/20020812frasquad.html
I don't want Anelka on the team. I'm glad Cheryou,Mexes and Govu got picked. Lebouf and Dugarry people say they suck but I still love those 2 guys.
Dugarry is pretty erratic.... however he's a great team player... I think Anelka needs to play some consistant 1st team football with Man City , before he sees National duty.
Lebouf might have more fans if he wasn't so stuck on himself that there is no room for anyone else. "You can't be my biggest fan - I am my biggest fan." I think he has an inferiority complex after being stuck firmly behind Desailly and Blanc for so many years. That and the fact that he does not always play well in big games - he is pretty slow and for some reason his mistakes look much more embarrassing than other guys. It's like a gift with him.
Why no Mickael Landreau? I saw him play in goal for Nantes several times last year and thought he was fantasic.
