There are claims of a furious halftime bust-up between Chelsea striker Nicolas Anelka and coach Raymond Domenech during their defeat to Mexico.
Anelka has unleashed a scathing attack on Raymond Domenech after being criticised at half-time during France's defeat to Mexico, according to French newspaper L'Equipe.
Anelka told Domenech to "go screw yourself, dirty son of a whore" in the dressing room at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane after the coach criticised his first-half performance.
The outburst came after Domenech told Anelka to stop straying out of position during France's 2-0 defeat, in which the striker was one of his side's poorest performers.
When Anelka took issue with the criticism, Domenech threatened to substitute him, and the player unleashed his foul-mouthed tirade, reported L'Equipe.
Domenech's response was immediate.
"OK. You're coming off," the coach said, and Anelka was replaced with Andre-Pierre Gignac for the second half.
Easy match to predict. Selective passing, no captaincy to gallas, aging team...... pro coach... and wheres henry
good job Anelka!
good job Anelka!
gd
should sack him
i am half expecting the french to punch each other up during the last game. should be an entertaining end before they pack up.
had domenech won the WC the last time, he wouldnt have such crap from his players, me thinks. poor chap.
Anyway, anelka is another big headed idiot la....think he very good. actually suck cock oni la lol

I think he's having such crap only because he's crap himself...
The French team has too many personnel with ego problems.
The coach, Gallas, Anelka, etc.
And especially Domenech. He shouldn't even be with the French team after exiting Euro 08 in group stages. Looks like yet another early exit this time round in World Cup.
The entire French team should just screw themselves up and go home early.
They will accompany Anelka after a few days la....
Nowadays not many workers dare to screw their bosses, if the boss is lousy - Screw them! Tell them they sucks too!.
That is the way to improve.
Anelka have such an huge ego problem, Domenech would have done better had he taken Saha to SA... and perhaps done much better than Le Sulk too... Anelka has been quite useless for the French so far anyway...
with the blackies-white conflict in the French camp, time to bet on Sth Afica win and draw, it's a SURE thing !!!
i'm praying Domench stays on as France coach...........as long as he's around, those blackies won't win anything !
saha and heskey same. no point one. i prefer Trezeguet if i have to pick one between him and saha.
where's benzema arh seriously? nasri? ben arfa? Lassana Diarra? flamini? mexes?
what are all this players doing at home? why dont want bring along? instead he chose players like Djibril Cissé, Mathieu Valbuena -.-

he will be gone after the world cup, regardless of his achievement in this tour.
Apparently there's a rift between the old guards and the youngsters therefore some were left out of the team.
No wonder Domenech kept bringing them out for bonding excursions, like go-kart and cycling.

the best bonding way for the france team is a boxing match all between the unhappy ones. and yes ROYAL RUMBLE!
next world cup france sure wont qualify already. no henry. ribery is way overhyped. the rest of them dont need say.
more than half of the french team are blacks and if there is one trend about black players is they are generally poorer and much more inconsistent than white players. very few exceptions like drogba, eto, maybe evra
The coach should ditch those older and attitude players like gallas and anelka. the young represents the future and the old represents the past. if there is one group to be sacrifised, the older players should be ditched. how many more years can these oldies keep playing for france? euro 2012 the most?
Hope the new coach can settle these problem France is facing before preparing for Euro 2012 Qualifers.
