    Cabaye and Debuchy score. Remy and Sissoko both should have too. Anyone else catch it? France played some wonderful football and three of our lads were in the the starting XI. Hope to see this replicated against Liverpool!

    Can't be a bad thing! Hopefully they bring confidence back to the camp.

    Cisse scored with the last kick against Ivory Coast. They lost 3-1, but the away goal gives them a chance.

    I really would love to see what a sports psychologist has to say about player's mentalities when wearing a different coloured shirt...

    Still, a bit of heart injected before the Liverpool game could be good.

    I know it's not about our french lads but I didn't think it deserved a new thread

    Cisse scores, and Tiote gets booked


    In the 96th minute the hosts failed to clear a corner, allowing the Newcastle United striker to poach a goal that prompted the Ivorian players to collapse to the turf in frustration at the final whistle seconds later.
    If the late goal was disappointing for the hosts, so was the booking for Cisse's club colleague Cheick Tiote - a second caution of the qualifying campaign ruling him out of the away leg on 16 November.
    Even so Ivory Coast, frequently described as the strongest side on the continent, take a healthy advantage into the game in Casablanca, where Senegal will need to deliver one of their best performances of recent years if they are to qualify for their first World Cup since reaching the quarter-finals in 2002.
    "We showed today that we can be a team," Kalou told BBC Sport. "We scored early, which gave us the confidence to go forward and score more.
    "I think it's a good victory. We can be positive about the next round because there is one more game to go, but we did one step and we have to fight to get the second one."

    Yay! Tiote can stay at home!


    And it's not like he can drive anywhere and get into trouble at home <laugh>

    Nice strikes from our lads. MD caught that a treat. No chance for the keeper. How good did Ribery look tho! Austrailia are not that great however. Giroud's first is mint.

    Don't tell Pards, he'll have him playing at centre forward.

    Could do worse, Tiote's got a good dig on him.

    Hmmm. One magical, memorable goal in one hundred and eleventy attempts from about 30 yards+.

    I think defensive midfield is about right. :)
