The youngins today will not make it to Brazil and I'm not sure they will make it to 2016 except if we have a coach ready to destroy and rebuild around new people.
There's something missing in that team. I had a trill when we drew against Spain because if we hadn't as much talent or skill than Spain we had more determination and heart. These days, there's no team spirit, no soul, the team is empty, I don't feel no will to win, no hunger in the way they play. So add that to the lack of talent and proper animation and tactics, you have weak ass team. Well I have.
:sadcam:
What would a list of your most promising/best players under the age of 23 look like?

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

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.

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

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​

:pachaha:

Nasty Nas :wow:
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 :ehh:. I don't like him really but he's proving me wrong.

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 :blessed:

Doesn't look bad tbh. Thauvin looked good at the u20 World Cup :tu: 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. :lupe:

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.

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

Of course b :wow:

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.
