“Domenech shouldn’t leave:” Ribéry

Although France failed to impress at Euro 2008, star player Franck Ribéry hopes that manager Raymond Domenech opts to stay with the team for another two years.

The Bayern Munich player, who went off injured during the lost clash with Italy on Tuesday, was the first to support Domenech in public.

“For me, Domenech doesn’t have to leave. We need him to continue the job with this group. Mistakes have been made, but not just by him,” says the midfielder.

“There is a new generation about to arrive, with lots of quality. The French team will show great things in the coming years.”
