What would a list of your most promising/best players under the age of 23 look like?

And LLoris who was one of the few to never disappoint is at fault on BOTH goals. The overall shyttiness of our team caught up with him now.

 

[Liu Kang]

Fortunately we have Ribéry... He and Valbuena never disappoint.

Pretty sure you'll have a decent group of players in a number of positions.

I don't follow the NT like that but that may be something like that (in a classic 4-2-3-1).

Aérola
Umtiti - Varane - Sakho - Digne
Pogba - Kondogbia
Thauvin - Rabiot - Ongenda
Benzia​

Nasty Nas
2nd assist from Valbuena.

Dude coming back in full force as a right winger. He was good against Georgia last week and scores in this match . I don't like him really but he's proving me wrong.

 

[Premeditated]

omg, England are so hard to watch. Can't even string along a series of passes without looking rocky.

Italy vs Czech= higher quality football with superior players

 

[Liu Kang]

Pogba

EDIT : Well we are leading 4-2 now

EDIT 2 : Doesn't change the fact that we are shyte.

Doesn't look bad tbh. Thauvin looked good at the u20 World Cup Little slow but he has great technique.

@Don Rhymus you watched House of Cards? It's absolute quality, easily one of the best out. I can enjoy stuff like Homeland but this is a different level.

Had a marathon session over the weekend. I said I'd stop watching new shyt but I can't help myself.

Damn, no Grenier and Griezmann?

White excellence

Edit: oh and Lacazette >> Benzia if that means anything

dont think France are shyt. Just that the players can't seem to play as a team

Forgot about them. But I'm not really aware of the young players. Yeah you can replace Benzia with Griezmann. From what I saw he's better. For Grenier I though he was older than 23.

And that's why we are shyte as a team. What's the need to have talented players if the coach can't make them play well together ?

Of course b

It's almost cheating, having Kevin Spacey and the directors they have.

First two episodes by Fincher da Gawd.
Second two by James Foley who directed Glengarry Ross
Five and six by Joel Schumacher
And then the rest were done by a dream team of TV directors.

It really is.

They make everything else look amateurish. I don't even want to fack with Homeland any more but I'll watch it just for that @obarth piff

The main problem is France have too many good players and very few great players. There is no hierarchy whatsoever.

Then there is no creative midfielder you can really count on. Ribéry is our best player and he needs to be surrounded by creative players or he is bound to run around like a fool. The fact that Valbuena is our best playmaker doesn't cut it. Nasri is... Nasri. Grenier is too young, don't really know if he will be THAT good.

Our full backs are shyt.

Yeah it feels like Grenier has been around longer that he actually has...


I think Sakho is 23/24 though. Kurt Zouma holds some promise as a central defender.
