After just being knocked out as bottom of the group, if his removal comes quick enough, he could still put in for the Blackburn job...

If Bolton is, as Domenech claimed, "the arsehole of the universe", what the juddering f*ck would he think of Blackburn?

Paid the price for his bizarre selection of Abidal in central defence. I know Boumsong is garbage but Abidal struggled even at left back so God knows what Domenech was thinking putting him up against Toni.

Still, only half his fault after Thuram wussed out because he "wasn't in the right frame of mind." Nice of him to lose his nerve in the most critical game of the tournament after Domenech built the team around him during qualifying. What a dick.

Makes for an interesting Hiddink vs Holland. I think Russia have a chance. We all know they've got a great perestroikas, and it will be interesting to see if Holland can banish their major tournament kremlins. :mrgreen:

If Portugal go out, Scolari may start at Chelsea early and the merry-go-round might speed up a touch

Just a thought
