Bollocks.
Try best.
Just because Evra is good for Manure doesn't make him good for France. He's been super shite for France in every international he's played for them but been pretty much shocking the last two games. He's made several defensive errors and gifted the opposition the ball in dangerous positions several times.
Clichy and Abidal play left back for France better than Evra has ever done.
Hence for France Evra is the 3rd best LB. Doesn't even deserve to be in the squad let alone the captain judging his previous two performances.
Plus he's a w***er.
Clichy is near Evra, but not as good. Since the season is from August to May, its the far more accurate basis of how good the player is. So your argument doesn't make sense because no one would not play a star for their country, and Evra is clearly the best left beck from France.
Evra is a better LB than Clichy Domestically, not Internationally, Internationally, Evra has been diabolical, the only reason he is playing at all is because France have no CB's and Abidal has been forced to play at CB, where he is absolute 1 million% shit.
Clichy has looked outstanding even in his relatively short time on the pitch for France, the International game suits him even better than at club level if thats possible.
And no, Evra is not clearly the best LB from France, he was a flop in his first season at Man Utd, where was he at Clichy's age? Slumming it at Monaco, Clichy has been recognised as one of the top LB's in the World since he was 20 years old and i still have no doubts he will be the undisputed best in the World one day, its hard to believe he is only 24.
Making Evra captain was one of the most laughable decisions i have ever seen, you leave your captain (Vieira) Out of qualifiying, and appoint Henry, who he then proceeded to leave on the bench when he is clearly, 100% still their best player, top goalscorer and the only player capable of scoring goals.
Domanech is the Worst manager i have ever seen at the helm of a supposedly World Class team, he should have been sacked after Euro 2008.
He leaves out Mexes, Benzema, Nasri and takes Anelka, Govou and Cisse?
Wally.
