Mavuba? Sissoko?...(and I'm a Newcastle supporter!!)

 

So what team for friday. There is so few passion and interest in this squad nowadays...

 

According to L'Equipe, might be :

Lloris – Debuchy, Koscielny, Abidal, Evra – Pogba, Cabaye, Matuidi – Rémy, Giroud, Ribéry

or

Lloris – Debuchy, Koscielny, Abidal, Evra – Pogba, Matuidi – Rémy, Nasri, Ribéry - Giroud

 

The second one is great IMO! Except for Abidal... his season is really not that great so far.

 

Line up for tonight :

Lloris - Debuchy, Koscielny, Abidal, Evra - Pogba, Matuidi - Rémy, Nasri, Ribéry - Giroud.

 

Ok, no hand this time.

 

promish

 

twice the ball goes on our left flanc and nobody to reciepe it.

 

Good match so far, played at very high tempo.

Why no Benzy???

 

considering how engaged is this match, better not to have benzema playing.
that said, hard match, very physical.

 

Dropping by to say good luck to France

 

Merci.

 

Ribery wins a corner, really puts in 100 per cent in every match.

I hope he wins the WPOY

 

Pogba 'impeccable'

 

ukraine score alm:

 

They nearly score again.....shit.

 

Well...

 

Nasri nearly scores, I honrstly thought he was gonna score

 

We will score I am sure

 

benzema enters.

allez benz ! it's now or never !

 

there is more wishes on the side of ukraine. i'm worried.

valbuena to enter. maybe that will change something.

 

Ukraine scores from penalty.

Need to score at least once for having any chance to qualify. A vital away goal.

 

7 mins remain

 

Over if we don't score.

 

Koscheilny sent off for a STUPID push

Anyway I'm off to bed...Bon nuit
