Freakiie Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Can't wait for France, as the by far most talented national team, to stick 10 men behind the ball and play long balls to Mbappé and hope that he does something with them. Oh, and Germany of course playing their suicidal high line with players way slower than Mbappé, playing right into their hands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikka Mezzala Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 On paper, this should be a terrific game. I hope it lives up to the billing. Don't mind who wins. Just want to be entertained for an hour and a half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised Rabiot got the nod over Tolisso tbf. Not that I'm a huge fan of either, just didn't seem like the expected choice. Backline is pretty good I think, if a bit defensive.

Freakiie Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 I mean, Deschamps doesn't want his backs to go forward at all, so it's no surprise he's starting with basically 4 CDs again. He's been doing that for a while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pearcey_90 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Hoping for a real classic. It was against utter crap, but Germany tempo and movement was superb against Latvia.
