Where are you from Tony?
By the way, if Deschamps replaces Giroud with Martial then France can win this tournament no problem. Giroud looks even slower for France than he does for us.
Martial hasn't turned up whenever he's played in the tourney so far.
Didn't Giroud make a goal and produce a brilliant pass that resulted in an Ireland red card? Seems like he and Griezmann are an ideal pairing.

Thats because they're basically Tottenham/Man Utd Dules. If Jack was starting hell even Theo or Calum were in the team we'd be up for them. Not going to support a team with Rooney in it.

Who would have flicked on to Greaseman for the equaliser then, France might otherwise be out.

Exactly. Giroud was good when they could actually find him.
That header was a superb bit of play, and Giroud's one of few footballers alive today who combine the intelligence and experience in his role to bring it off. He's a limited footballer, but he's still an elegant thinker and player of a rare kind.
Martial's been shit for France. Giroud has done well, was much better yesterday when Deshamps pushed Griezi closer to him, he was far too isolated in the 1st half.
Said ahead of the tournament that France won't win it if Giroud is their main striker. Seen nothing yet to change my mind.

well.. they havent lost yet, so............
You won't ever be wrong on that claim cos even if France win it you'd say he wasn't their main guy.
Italy look odds on to win the whole thing right now and their main striker is Pellé. France won't win it because they're a shit team machine, not because Olly starts.
A shit team machine?
End of the road for the Italians against Germany I reckon.

i dont know if i would say they look odds on favorite though...
Would imagine the winner of that game will win the thing.
unless belgium somehow manage to pull their shit together, i would say thats not a bad shout
