Checking VAR again. Totally unnecessary.

Yep definitely. It should be a request by the ref.

They need to tweak it quite a bit. Its killing the pace of the game.

Yes, Fekir and Giroud coming on.

Just a bit strange to make that point when 99% of what's written on here, in fact 99% of what football fans talk about anywhere, is fans thinking they know better than coaches.

Surely it'd be a much more worthwhile and interesting conversation if you told me what you think about France's team and how it's set-up? Or what you think Mbappé's best role is? Etc.

This is a typical first WC group game from France - completely uninspired, pedestrian

Those French subs don't make sense to me.

Just play Griezmann behind Giroud.

Giroud, what a man.

What an unlucky goal to concede

Giroud doing Giroud things.

Lucky goal. Not impressed at all by this France team. Kante is probably the only player in that team who isn't overrated.

I just think it's a tournament too early for this French side.

Mbappé will probably be PSG's starting striker by the Euros; bigger, stronger and smarter. Dembele will be a more consistent and reliable player. And hopefully someone will emerge in midfield to give them what they're missing.

I actually don't know Mpabbe's best roles or really care. I don't pretend to be a footy expert and I appreciate you know a lot more about tactics etc. than me. There's no doubt about it and I'm cool with it.

It just stood out to me as odd and arrogant what you said about Deschamps as if he, after a career in football for 30 odd years, that he wouldn't know he could play a player he picked in a particular position. Of course he does. Maybe he prefers other shapes or he's not brave enough. Clever? A bit much for me.

I just picked it out as I'm free to do so.

France have always struggled against these sort of teams. It took them a goal from Laurent Blanc in extra time to see off Paraguay in France 98. I also remember them struggling through the group stages in the 2006 world cup. That was a team that consisted of  Zidane,  Henry, Vieira, Makelele,  Ribery etc

Still struggling to get my head around Umtiti's cock up, what the f**k was he thinking ?

Fucking hernandez eating grass again. Wanker.
