Welcome to the "Frog," my little piece of cyberspace to talk about my passion - le foot (or soccer for my North American friends) especially anything around French football. Of course I will have some guest contributors that might want to discuss other aspects of footy! I support Les Bleus, Arsenal and PSG but really just love watching, analyzing and following the beautiful game. "You have to trust your teammates, always. If not we are lost."

Adebayor in hot water with the FA
The Togolese striker may have to face some serious charges from both the FA and the local Manchester authorities for his antics this past weekend. So is he to blame for all this? Or do the fans need to shoulder some of the burden? I would argue both sides need to be more responsible. Fans have a right to voice their opinion about the players, within reason. At the same time players should be used to the verbal abuse and must realize that they need to control their emotions...if it were just between the player and the fans, then have at it. However you have others who are their to maintain security who are their to ensure the logistics of the games are smooth. They are the ones that get caught in these fracases...as we saw last weekend. So shame on Adebayor and shame on the Arsenal traveling fans.
