Never Say Never

This is what Zidane said in April this year:

"You know very well that when I have made a decision, the decision has been made. I'll stick to my decision. I can assure you France will qualify."
"I heard on television that it was possible I would come back. It's not right, I think it's a pity because it calls everything into question and contradicts what I said."
"I don't want to think I'm the saviour of the team and I don't want people to think I'm the saviour of the team. Such behaviour would be pure conceit and I never behave like that."

Apparently he stressed his retirement strongly. But, look at what he said today after 4 months:

"France have given me so much that I want to help them."
"For the first time in my life I am changing my mind on something very important."
"I had thought about it carefully before taking my initial decision. I did so again this time. This is very emotional."
"I was on holiday and I realised that I did not have that much time left in football and I wanted to make the most of it."

Wow! Quite shocking, isn't it? By the way, Makelele, who announced his international retirement in September last year, is going back too. All I want to say is... Look at what you've done, Gerrard!! It seems that U-turn has became a trend! Haha, unbelievable!! Well, again, you never say never. It's hard to say whether it's a good decision or not. Like French Football Federation president Jean-Pierre Escalettes just said: "It's a brave decision because he is taking risks with his image."
