big Olly getting the start for this one
As he should. Good move by Deschamps. He needed more experience and better linkup play.
agreed.. balance seemed wrong with dembele in there
Dembele better suited to games where they can predominantly play on the counter.
France desperately missing Mendy and Sidibe. They are literally playing with 4 CBs without much width
Mbappé has been taking lessons from Neymar I see
Good chance missed by Peru. They’ve played better so far
guerrero really should have scored there
edit.. was at a worse angle than i thought.. still good chance, but not the sitter i thought
Mbappé scores. Jammy
oh dear.. mbappe..
Wish we had a striker like Giroud. So useful and brilliant in linkup play.
flobs, you're about 30 second ahead of me.. lol

We have a striker who's much better than Giroud.

France look much better with this selection

As do France. Benzema - better link up and overal more quality going forward.
Wenger’s biggest fan is such an exciting player
Kante is a superstar.
I loved Giroud but lets face it, when he was starting regularly for us we were wishing for something else altogether half the time.
almost a good break from france.. olly just couldnt get to the ball (was too far in front of him, he was never that fast)

I wonder how much is that down to the space they are getting today ?
I don't like seeing Mbappe in midfield (criminal really) and Pogba isn't half the player in a 2
