Is it true he calls up players and fields them according to their sign/horoscope?
yes
he killed our hopes, i never saw a french team play so slow and so afraid to lose, i rather lose by playing to our indentity, than string a bunch of nil nil games playing whatever Raymondo feels that day.
i can't believe he actually thought relying on Toulalan and Maka to play through the middle, for gods sakes they are incredibly defensive holding mids, why would you need two to play against a team that was parking it, Abidal was aweful on the left so thin, same as Flo.
oh let's talk about substitutions for a second
Gomis for Anelka, ok we need to win this because let's face it's the toughest group, but Raymondo in all his wisdom can't even think about attacking or switching tactics that weren't working he didn't even try switching his wings Rat was doing an Awesome job on Ribéry he closed him down, but noo let's stick to something that doesn't work, so he changes striker for striker when it was obvious that two holding mids weren't needed for this game.
second sub, Nasri for Benzema, nice, this actually means we had no strikers left, Gomis was playing his third match in bleue and Raymond leaves him alone up front..... Raymondo actually killed our attack on purpose, how's that for tactical genious, i can't wait for him to fail miserably so we can get rid of the worse NT coach in the history of Football.
