Romania - France

WC 2010 Qualifying at Constanta - 11/10/08 -​

The squad should announced today. I believe Ribéry will be back after his pretty good performance against Lyon. We will certainly see Gourcuff aswell.

Yeah he is a a 100% starter for Lyon, but at the moment Mandanda is ahead of him. Not sure if it's the good choice.

LAst official at least, i think he would stay at least till the Tunisia game.

L'Equipe guess, since Anelka is doubtfull and likely not to play at all :

A 4-5-1

Code: 
[B][CENTER]Mandanda 

Sagna Gallas Abidal Evra 

Toulalan Vieira 

Ribéry Gourcuff Ben Arfa 

Henry[/CENTER][/B]

My impression on the first half. The defense looked unsecure and not confident at all. Adding to that that we don't know how to defend on aerial ball. Well we can't have our say on Raymond's choice to give a chance to guy who barely play with Lyon behind a Cris (coming back from Injury) and a former midfielder (Bodmer). But we can't say that either Abidal, Evra and Sagna were at the level too. Back in the days we knew how to defend and to built up the play starting from the back. Now at time we just push the ball away adn alea jacte est.

The duo Ribéry - Gourcuff started well from the start, A.Diarra/Toulalan not that bad. Henry pretty much hard time with a defense defending that deep adn us playing a 4-5-1.
