'We are going to worry about our football, not the Irish', says Sagna

Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna added to the tit-for-tat pre-match needle that has developed over this week when he responded to Richard Dunne's criticism of France manager Raymond Domenech.Sagna said: 'We're going to go into this game thinking about us and our football. We're not going to worry about the Irish, who are talking a lot.'Dunne had remarked on Domenech's domestic unpopularity in response to an earlier comment from the France coach himself but Sagna saw that as unnecessary.  Focus: Sagna (left)He said: 'They're trying to attack the coach, they're trying to attack us. But the game will be played on the pitch. We'll try to give our response on the pitch.'Sagna was asked in turn what he thought of the Republic of Ireland coach, Giovanni Trapattoni, and about the 70-year-old Italian's 35 years in management. 'I don't know the man,' Sagna said. 'I don't know what he's done.' Beware the Bull: France ready to unleash Gypsy king Andre-Pierre Gignac on Irish defenceGrown-up Sean St Ledger buries his wild past and hopes to keep Nicolas Anelka and Thierry Henry at bayWenger's Irish stew: Arsenal boss can't call France World Cup play-offMcGeady hoping the numbers work in his favour for France showdownDunne dismisses Domenech as 'the man who is messing up France team'Evra: World Cup is more important than Champions League glory  Explore more:People:Richard Dunne, Raymond Domenech, Bacary SagnaPlaces:Republic of Ireland, France
