Griezmann and Martial were missing Turok... and Kante is actually better right now than Lass as Lass was Gimpy.

Not too worried about Kos... he took a boot in the head on that goal that wasn't called lol. Rami is another story.

We don't have any competition until maybe even the semis given our draw. Definitely to the quarters though.

Oh and we always play crap in friendlies. Don't really take them seriously which is why our FIFA rankings suffer.

You cannot mask injuries though. Martial and Griezmann cant do it all by themselves.

You expect too much from them. Maybe if Varane and Benz were around, I would be more confident but Varane is hurt and Benz didnt get called because of premature, preconceived notions in regards to his court case.

You use friendlies to prep. Euro 2016 is right around corner. France dont look like prepping to me.

Koscielny joining the party.

Good to know our players can score against shite like Scotland.

by RealGunner Sat Jun 04, 2016 8:41 pm

Scotland look abysmal

by sportsczy Sat Jun 04, 2016 8:48 pm

Scotland are so shit... hard to figure anything out from this game.

by RealGunner Sat Jun 04, 2016 8:51 pm

Rami still doesn't look that good despite this Scotland team lol. But I guess DD has picked this CB pairing for Euros

Back 4 seems to be set now actually. Midfield too with Pogba-Matuidi definite starters. Kante would be my 3rd choice mid as well atm.

Giroud is a sure starter by the looks of it. But wide forwards still not decided. Martial and Griezmann both big names and probs will start but Payet is giving DD a headache.

by sportsczy Sat Jun 04, 2016 9:25 pm

Martial is so astoundingly talented... frightening.

and you wonder why I want him so bad at madrid.

France playing really well but at the same time its scotland so I am not certain how to perceive this. having said that, this performance can only be a positive.

by urbaNRoots Sat Jun 04, 2016 9:41 pm

Players like Giroud and Payet will win France the tournament if Deschamps knows how to use them. Not losers like Griezmann and Martial.

by sportsczy Sat Jun 04, 2016 10:17 pm

Lol... Griezmann is sureshot starter. Opposite himmis between Coman and Martial since DD made it clear he wants speed in that position. Payet backs up Griezmann.

Only reason he didn't start was to rest him... He has nothing to prove.

by urbaNRoots Sun Jun 05, 2016 9:01 am

Are you saying Payet won't start every game? He's your only creative outlet, a set piece specialist, can score AND assist in every moment for... Martial?

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised as it's not the first time Deschamps makes retarded decisions.

by farfan Sun Jun 05, 2016 2:44 pm

Losers like Martial .... winners like Giroud . Laughing

Quality trolling .

by RealGunner Sun Jun 05, 2016 3:07 pm

Giroud has won more than martial. No trolling there

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Sun Jun 05, 2016 3:07 pm

Giroud has 5 trophies compared to Martial's 1.

Quite clear who the winner here is and who the loser is tbh.

by sportsczy Tue Jun 07, 2016 10:03 pm

Payet-Griezmann-Giroud were aligned in training today.

Coman has a knock and Martial was with the second team.

No surprises for the rest.

Our set pieces are going to be absolutely killer with both Payet and Griezmann.

by RealGunner Tue Jun 07, 2016 10:42 pm

Payet is going to act as a ribery-lite with dropping into midfield when he has to making it a 4-4-2. Not surprised there. Martial was really good when he came on against Scotland so thought he might get the nod. But starting all 3 of martial-griezmann and giroud would be too unbalanced i suppose.

Bench looks promising.

by sportsczy Tue Jun 07, 2016 10:53 pm

Coman and Martial coming on for Payet and Giroud around the 65-70 min mark will be killer. The 3rd sub will be Cabaye for whatever CM needs subbing... probably Matuidi as he kills himself and needs a breather.

The rotations look good.

This looks much better, scary even.

Hope France win it, because I made a bunch of bets with people beforehand.

If they suck i'm coming for you sports.
