Chamakh has just posted this on twitter, albeit in French. Is he happy to be selected or happy to see someone else selected? Could Bannan or Guardiora starting?

I'm really happy to see the selection, which is what the post name is. Hope that's clear now.

'Je suis vraiment heureux de retrouver la sélection' thats what chamakh tweeted... and the op is right... my minimal french translates it as 'I am really happy to see the selection.'... chocolates, morocan team or the dvd choice for the trip on the coach to the game... who knows?

Odd use of the infinitive "retrouver" here. "trouver" means to find..."retrouver" therefore means to find again. However, the verb is usually used to mean "to meet up with someone". I suspect he means "I am really happy to find myself selected again." Apols for being quite so nerdy - was a French teacher for 19 years. Reading between the lines, a more liberal translation might be, "Relieved to find myself still in the team with resurgent fans favourite FFS back in contention and young whipper - snapper Gayle breathing down my neck. Let's hope I bag a brace for the red and blue army down in South Wales."
