Its all about team dynamics!

Overall, team cohesion is developed through coaches and athletes working to achieve common goals and living up to the team philosophy both on and off the field. Building a unified team environment requires constant feedback, direct communication, identifiable leaders and developing a team culture within the parameters of the organizational mission.

This was probably not very evident with the 'Les Bleus' or so as the French National Football Team is called. The French saw an early disgraceful exit from the FIFA World Cup and have been blasted by all and sundry, so much so that, the captain Thierry Henry, has requested a meeting with the French President, Sarkozy.

That the team, played poor football, is evident and that team cohesion was poor is pretty clear.In the run up to the world cup, three of their stars were caught sleeping with an under aged prostitute and were severely castigated. This was followed by an unseemly spat, over the team staying in very expensive hotels in what is a recession hit France and to cap it all, the team saw a mutiny over one of the members being sent home by the coach for indiscipline.

On being beaten by rookies South Africa, the coach of the Bleus stormed off the pitch with out shaking hands with the SA coach. Peevish & poor behavior.Would you expect a team with this ethic, to win anything? I would be surprised if they did!

I wonder what Henry is going to say, to the President? Probably he is going to tell him, how he scored a crucial, goal against Ireland, with his hand, which an unsighted referee, did not penalize.
