    Hard to imagine anyone but France winning this tournament

    France's attack is ludicrously good, but their defence is fallible. Lucky to not concede a penalty then.

    I don't know, they're great up front but even Sweden are creating some chances against them. The France defence is there to be got at

    I always thought this one would be a rout. Netherlands are half the side of France and did this lot 5-1.

    France look incredible going forward. Still don’t trust that back line though.

    I am not sure why we are so focused on France.  We are not getting past the winner of Mexico/ecuador anyway

    Cant say they havent deserved it. France would absolutely annihilate our defence.
    Let’s not go over board. They are 1-0 up against Sweden who conceded five to the Dutchies who are at home already.

    Yea but that attack would still annihilate our defence.

     We are pissing about trying to decide who is the least bad with Gordon and rashford and Saka and madueke, and France have Doue doing fuck all on the bench!!

    France look very good. But they'll face tougher opposition. France Morocco could be a classic

    Well they did finish bottom of their qualifying group, with no wins, qualifying because of their Nations League 2024 performance.

    It didn't feel like the same level though.

    Game Over, may retire for the night. Cue a Sweden fightback (doubt it though)

    Thought that may well be offside, not that it would have mattered.

    As long as they're willing to buy into Jones' philosophy I wouldn't mind us signing some of these French attackers.

    Mateta doesn't really fit in with the rest of their squad does he?

    I’ve always said players should play for their country of birth, England would be much better off for example with Olise playing and Haaland and Kane rotating.
