Haa yall flat. You said Abidal is crap, so you dont have much credibility in this current debate.

You said a team featuring him at centre half was the 3rd best in the world at the moment and you're questioning someone else's credibility in the debate?

The only reason he is playing there is because Domenech is a poor coach - as a left-back he is clearly one of the best in world. I also said that it does seem also that other than Gallas other natural central defensive options like Mexes, Squllaci, Escude, Boomsong seem just club quality rather than full international quality. So in the centre of defense they are weak, but everywhere France is full of quality thats very obvious.

Well, you've clearly got enough time to reply. But as you decided to but into something I was saying to someone else and make an absurd and baseless statement, I would suggest that it is you, rather than I, who should cease making posts.

So they aren't one of the best teams on paper in other words? Yes? Good.

Haa seems like you have been stuck in off-topic too long..

So what if you made the point to someone else. Thats how debates are generated on this site - someone makes a comment you disagree with - you quote them on it whether they are already debating with someone else or not.

Yes. If France picks this team, only Spain & Brazil are better on paper.

Yes, only what I was talking about had absolutely nothing to do with whatever you spouted in response.

And that team however, is not the one you showed earlier, and was the foundation for your suggestion that they were the best team on paper.

No it wasn't - it was just beginning. If you took time read what i said in response to Matteh & Pup Clarke further elaborating my position on France - instead of as you claimed in responce to DCYE's post that you just skipped my two post - the connection is very clear.

Don't wanna steal the Vimesian thunder, but Ireland have copped a raw one in the play-off draw: :mellow:

Republic of Ireland v France
Portugal v Bosnia-Hercegovina
Greece v Ukraine
Russia v Slovenia

Funny how the weakest seeded team is drawn against the strongest unseeded one too, eh? Wafer are ****s.

The Vimesian thunderstorm is stuck in Athina following "small technical issues with an aircraft", so you're more than welcome.

Will second your opinion, though I didn't notice much righteous thunder four years ago though. Exactly the same thing happened - play-off was suddenly decided to be seeded on a whim. Presumably no Anglo-speaking nations was involved so it was all ok. :dry:
