They need leadership, the big difference between them and the late 90s early 2000s IMO and the 98 defence was just nasty. I didn't believe it until the 2002 team that went to the world cup with the top scorers in EPL, Serie A, Ligue 1 just crashed out after Zidane was injured and they had Viera/Makelele too. Germany took 2 tournaments to finally win a tournament after the talented 2010 and 2012 team lost in semis. I think France might just do the same as their talent might eventually get them a major trophy.Modeste is French too. France is filthy stacked.
If Dechamps doesn't at the minimum make the Final in 2018, he needs to be executed by firing squad.
The next three world cups/Euro's is literally France's to lose.
I don't think you will ever see a team mismanage talent as much as Argentina has done for the better part of 2 decades now. They have produced more number 9s in the last 5 years than Brazil has done since Ronaldo and at some point had midfield options like Veron, Mascherano, Cambiasso, Riquelme. Almost all their guys played way below their level for the NT and that includes Aguero, DiMaria,Higuain and Tevez. If you gave Brazil any of their strikers they would have probably performed better. Losing 3 straight finals doesn't help either and many teams make radical changes after that type of run.Messi gets suspended for four fukking games, and these bytch ass nikkas sat Dybala and Aguero.The spread is -0.5.
