Florent Malouda Wants To Replicate Chelsea Form With France In South Africa


France have been in far from impressive form in the build-up towards the 2010 World Cup, but highly-rated Chelsea winger Florent Malouda is still full of ambition.

"It’s difficult to say how the players who were excluded [from France's World Cup squad] will feel; I imagine that they’re very disappointed. But now, for those who are part of the group, it’s time to get serious, to take responsibility," he told FIFA.com.

"There is a lot of work to do and I can assure you that we have no intention of turning up at the World Cup with our heads down. We’re going to South Africa to win.

"When you have the good fortune to win trophies at club level, as was the case this season with Chelsea, you want to replicate that with your national team.

"I’m ambitious, there’s no denying it. Nicolas Anelka and I would love to relive our recent successes, but with France this time."
