??? Explain pls.

It doesn't suit any argument I've been making, and what's Kerr got to do with it?

Since the "retirees" returned they got 7 points out of 9. Before this they were average at best, a pale shadow of their former selves.

On paper the French can now put out a much better XI than 12 months ago and I think they could do well. I totally stand by my earlier remarks, fail to see how I've "flip flopped" and am equally at a loss to see how it ties into any opinion I have of Kerr, which you probably can't remember anyway.

I agree with you about nasri, he's only seventeen and even last year he already saved Marseille in several situations. Even though, instead of you,i Hate L'OM as i'm a Lille supporter:D and the two teams can't stand each other
