    And objectively Benzema is none of the above.

    He's definitely a big name. Real Madrid spent tens of millions of euros on the guy. That doesn't mean that he's a great player, in fact I don't think he's all that good. You would expect him to make the squad though.

    He has picked a squad of yes men bar maybe Ribery and Henry, Nasri,Vieira and Benzema would all have no problems standing up to him and putting him right.

    Disgrace Henry is in that squad French FA should of banned him from the world cup its not like they really need him with the players they have.
    I personally wouldnt be too upset to see him shot by a mad african or get injured just before the World cup.
    Although he did single handedly got them to the world cup.:D ;)

    Comments like this are why I will be proudly sporting a French jersey for the month of June.

    Ribery and Govou are as much midfielders as they are forwards.

    There more forwards than they are midfielders though. Like Messi you wouldnt really call him a midfielder.

    Ribéry is definitely a midfielder, Govou not so much.
