Happening now

Someone said play Mbappe through the middle. I have to concur

Worst possible decision right now. He's going to get mauled trying to out-muscle anyone in there. 60th-70th minute in the 2nd half, maybe, to throw off the opposition's tactics if it came to that. Deschamps is panicking in the first half.

The Argentina backline with those 3 midfielders in front is causing all types of trouble for France.
Every pass is being deflected, intercepted, crosses cleared....Argentina looking possessed out here.

Messi causing Rabiot to pull up farther away from the backline...one more through ball and we might be putting this one to bed.

I'm waiting for stories about the usual French infighting to come out as to why they have been poor


We already have a good glimpse from this Deschamps/Benzema situation with Decshamps eager to say Benz was out for the whole tournament.
He went back to Spain, Real Madrid said his injury wasn't even that bad.


When the full details come out from that, it won't look good for Deschamps at all.
