LMAO!

The “Das ist kein Nicky Lauda” quote at the end just caps it perfectly.

Remember people were calling for him being fired during the world cup? After France’s pathetic showing in the group stages. Luckily they were in a group where it was harder NOT to advance then to advance (Togo? Really?)

From then, they picked up and played an obviously better tournament. But perhaps that was more the players doing great DESPITE him…

Maybe it’s only obvious to those who actually know the game, but he substituted Nasri on because of the injury to Ribery, then substituted him off because of the red-card to the defender Abidal so they didn’t concede more goals. With Henry there, they still had a chance of scoring on the counter-attack, but he didn’t want to play a player short in defence.

Oh Man! this is hilarious! Yeah, I agree that coach sucks, dont think you’ll be seeing much of france anymore in major tournaments.
