Coach Domenech angered by Dhorasoo

Dhorasoo's attempts at film-making have not impressed his coach.

PARIS, France -- France coach Raymond Domenech has criticised Vikash Dhorasoo after discovering the Paris St Germain midfielder was planning a documentary film on the World Cup runners-up.

"I never gave him my consent to use the tapes publicly and I'm not going to give it. It's as simple as that," said Domenech on the eve of the friendly match against Bosnia in Sarajevo.

"As far as I'm concerned, he can edit me off," he added.

French media reported that Dhorasoo, a bit-part player at the World Cup who was often seen filming his team mates in Germany, wanted to use the tapes to make a documentary entitled 'Substitute'.

"Vikash should start a new career and it's maybe what he is trying to do. When you become a spectator of other people you cannot pretend to be an actor any more," said Domenech.

The coach left Dhorasoo out of his squad for Wednesday's friendly.

With midfielders Zinedine Zidane and Claude Makelele retired from internationals and central defender Lilian Thuram yet to decide on his future, Les Bleus travel to Sarajevo with a new-look team.

Among the fresh faces are Lyon midfielder Jeremy Toulalan and Bordeaux defender Julien Faubert, members of the team which reached the semifinals of the European under-21 championship in May.

Lyon defender Francois Clerc has been called up for the second time while Bordeaux midfielder Rio Mavuba and Roma defender Philippe Mexes have only three and six caps respectively.

France, who lost to Italy on penalties in last month's World Cup final in Berlin, start their Euro 2008 qualifying campaign against Georgia and Italy next month.
