How the French circus evolved over the past 2 years:
Euro 2008 Build up - Nasri sits in Henry's seat by accident. Henry gets in a huff. Nasri stands his ground, making him the first Frenchman to do so since Austerlitz. A grudge is born
Euro 2008- France vs. Italy - Domenech has to play Abidal at centerback because he left Mexes out of the squad because Mexes is a Scorpio. When Abidal is sent off, he has to bring on Boumsang. Also, brings on Nasri after injury only to sub him off after red card
Euro 2008 - France are knocked out, having only scored 1 goal
Post Euro 2008 - Domenech also proposes to his girlfriend on tv after getting knocked out, confirming stereotypes about the french being the best lovers
Post Euro 2008 - FFF doesn't fire him. On a completely unrelated note, Domenech runs academies that the FFF depend on
WC 2010 qualifiers - The team is very cliquish. Players from the Antilles, the Muslims, those who play in France, the old timers, and then those who play for bourdeax. No one really likes each other, and the bourdeax contigent and older players hate each other
WC 2010 qualifiers - Can't beat Romania (again), can only beat Lithuania 1-0 at both times of asking, can only beat the Faoroe Islands 1-0. Have to go to a playoff

WC 2010 Preparations - Gourcoff pulls an Ireland to get time off
WC 2010 Preparations - Anelka tries to stick up for Gourcoff, but Domenech ignores him. When Anelka is coming out as the paradigm of class, you know you're in trouble

WC 2010 France-Mexico - The older players ask Domenech to change to a 4-4-2 and to bring back Henry for the Mexico game. Domenech agrees, then finds out that Zidane was behind it.
