Desperately mediocre game. Easily the worst one not involving us thus far. Switzerland looked tight & well organised but lacking a cutting edge up front, but yer Forgs were shocking. They played like strangers for most of the match. Vieira looks a pale shadow of the collosus who bestrode Highbury & Zidane still has great vision, but has lost that crucial yard from his legs.

Terence was pretty disappointing too; if he wants to save his best performances for God's own team tho that's more than fine by me!

France were so so average. Fairplay to Switzerland who seemed to be attacking a bit more, but they were happy with a point so didn't want want to risk it that much.

You're welcome. Teams have started badly and done well (Argentina '90, Italy '82) in the past so there's hope for France yet. Fingers crossed anyway.

Zidane and Henry don't work in the same team. Just my two cents.
