Can't get over this France set up, like. It's bizarre. 

 

Think he tried to match the Swiss setup, but France don't look like they are comfortable with it at all.

Lucky that Deschamps ignored Laporte for years and ends up playing Lenglet in a crucial match 

 

Although watching Laporte earlier...(know what you mean though)

Yet again France look dull, awkward and unconvincing. I hope they get knocked out man. Frustrating watching a team with this amount of talent look so awful.

 

I think the French Pards has relied massively on individual talent to dig him out of holes There's no 'team' at all in this squad.

Sounds a bit like my assessment of England under Southgate.

 

Yeah, the situation is not too dissimilar at all. Deschamps is making a much bigger cock up of things though. It's incredible.

Yup, classic over reliance on that 'bit of magic'. No fluidity or rhythm to any of their play whatsoever. Just hoping Pogba plays a through ball to one of the front men at some point.
