He was terrible with Man. U which is what I base my statements on because I saw alot more of him there than for France. I believe that they ended up releasing him after a while when Tim Howard beat him out for the starting spot. There was a contraversy over who the keeper would be in the French camp leading up to this Cup and, if I remember right, the goal keeper coach and a friend of Bartez chose him as the starter, not the head coach. The other keeper, who most of the fans and the head coach were in favor of, quit because he refused to be a backup to Bartez.
