And the french back at training today
If the expressions on their face could tell what they were thinking...
Henry "I am listening to instructions"
Gallas "Now, with just a little more squeezing this fart will finally exit my backside"
Malouda "I will just play as Mourinho used to tell me to"
Toulalan "You have not convinced me Raymond!"
Diarra "Please please pick me"
Govou "If I look interested enough, I might just get picked in spite of my poor performances so far"
Ribery "Vive La France"
Evra "What a load of boules"
Or maybe more like...
Henry: "B'Jesus said Paddy… "
Gallas: "Iz zat a bananeur in ze azziztant coach’s purcket or iz he jursst 'appy to zee me?"
Malouda: "I'm a cunt. But at least I'm not Evra"
Toulalan: "Yep, even when I tilt my head at this angle Evra still looks like a cunt."
Diarra: "If Domenech keeps caressing my thigh like that I’m gonna... Ohhhh, merde!"
Govou: "Look into my eyes Raymond, not around the eyes, look directly into my eyes. You’re under. Now… I am the black Zidane & the French Maradona & Cruyff combined. I am NOT just Wiltord in a wig! You WILL pick me!"
Ribery: "Sacre bleu! How did I end up next to this cunt?!"
Evra: "Is that a cunt I smell? Wonder where that’s coming from?!"
radford suggest that the manager is mad but the french squad is full of ego's that are out of control. and refusing to train was simply pathetic, whilst their performances have been a disgrace.
"Louis XIV, Napoleon Bonaparte, Charles Aznavour, Edith Piaf, Charles De Gaul, Serge Gainsbourg, Francois Mitterand, Michel Platini, Joeystarr, Asterix the Gaul...your boysh took one hell of a beatings!"
With apologies to Vince and French Gun, I just could not resist. You can have you fun with us tommorow
Emmanuel Petit : "If the president of the french federation doesn't want to quit, he needs a kick in his ass [...] Domenech is the 'Jerôme Kerviel' of french football"
Patrice Evra : "I'll have an interview and a press conference in a week. The France needs to know what really happened. I'm sorry for the French people, I respect so much their pain. [...] We refuse to get money, we wont get a penny."
