I do feel very well as the end of june approches. really Lemerre was a bad nightmare for most of the tunisian sportsmen. although i was for a tunisian foot ball coach but , whatever happens during the peroiod 2008-2010 with Humberto Coelho it’s better than lemerre nightmare. i wish the best for Mr Coelho and for our NT anyway.

You are correct my friend. Mouihbi in Saber Ben Frej, Majdi Traoui, Zouhaier Dhaouadi out

Ben Frej and Traoui both got hurt in the Burkina FiAScO match.

I just learned (from kawarji.com) that Sabeur Ben Frej will not be traveling with the NT to Seychelles or Burundi. Not sure what’s up! Only 22 players will go!!!

LOL Tahar, if going crazy makes me legendary in your books then perhaps I should do it more often, haha! Thanks for appreciating the alchemist jokes buddy;) And great call on the retro gear for mr walrus mustache. latest pictures show its gone but i want to start a campaign to get him to grow it back. it’s very endearing lol.

Rachid, the fact that Lemerre is going to Morocco after Tunisia might work in our favor because if he completely screws us, Moroccans will see that and take note of it. Actually, forget I said that. They already know how crazy he is. I still think he’ll do well with them initially and then ultimately get set in his rigid ways, ignore talent, and treat journalists like lepers. Their Federation better take heed, when Lemerre pushes everyone needs to push back. You need united front to combat him.

Yassine and Zouheir, we’ll see what this guy is made of. I do sincerely wish him all the best. I just hope they pick an assistant that is not biased towards any one team and that will point Coelho in the right direction. and Yassine, the day I see the players you mentioned together on the field in an official match will be a great day for Tunisian soccer.

Thanks for the input guys and stay tuned for a new post this evening…

I’m actually very optimistic about this. Enough of Ecole Francaise! That style of play doesn’t fit our players, but it does for the French. Finally we’ll going to see a pleasant style of play with an an attacking spirit. I hope that we’ll going to see Dhaouadi Mouihbi Chermiti and Chikhaoui together on the pitch.

I feel exactly the same way you feel Rami. But to all the other readers, does it not seem that Rami has completely lost his mind since the Burkina Faso game. Usually hes so composed and diplomatic, and in this last post hes totally lost it hahaha references to the alchemist and paolo coelho hahaha

Rami forever a legend in my books!

Anyone, but Lemerde is a relief right now! The change was not made because of Sunday’s loss; it merely was a coincidence! The FTF had wanted to hire one of their French masters, but apparently failed. I’m glad to see you still insist on Marchand; I too had hopes for him. He treated the FTF with respect. He was told how dare he put any conditions. Lemerre on the other hand gets a free hand to do whatever he pleases. That’s the kind of language the FTF morons understand! The irony is that our Moroccan friends do not think much of him, but of course they do have a full grasp of what the hell they’re getting. Good riddance to Lemerre; may he burn in hell!!!
