I'd be hooking Benzema at half time and sticking Giroud on. 

 

Not sure the problem is with Benzema. The entire French defense and midfield look confused with this new formation. Swiss are breaking into France's half with ease.

France have been really poor but Switzerland’s management of the game and tempo, slowing it down aside from the odd burst and overload on the left, has been genuinely brilliant.

The setup hasn't helped but honestly they look like this every game. Completely uninspired.

Convinced Xhaka will be great when he moves to another league. Lower pace of internationals suits him so well

 

I agree. Should be very well suited to the Italian league. Think that Roma move will be good for him.

Not always the most exciting but genuinely think Petkovic has done a brilliant job over the years, squeezing every last bit out of this squad. 

 

Always qualify with ease, get out the groups, and then are unlucky to be narrowly defeated in the knock outs.
