    Got him on scoring at anytime.

    Ribery is injured & Benzema is out ot favour due to blackmail.

    Would've been nice if Benzema hadn't been a dick and made himself unselectable.

    It's always a bit of a shame when big players aren't at tournaments.

    A much bigger shame though is Kompany. Benzema it's his own stupid fault, Kompany's just had such a bad time this past year. He's defo the player I feel the worst for when it comes to those who aren't at the Euros.

    Kompany keeps aggravating old injuries at this point.

    Never really got why France was praised into the heavens. Yeah they have a decent team. Pogba is a great talent, Griezman is great and Payet played a decent match. But all in all they don't seem like a trophy winning team yet.

    Giroud sitting on the wings sometimes hasn't done them much good either. Aside from a few headers I think he's rather mediocre.

    My guess is that he'll go out for Martial at some point.

    Well that was a really disappointing first half, but then again first match in the euro is usually always crap.

    Remember when Brazil were favorites for the World Cup? Neither do I.

    Pretty much got similar feelings. I don't see how this France team is going to beat Germany for instance. Sure they will make it through their relatively easy group but after that I really don't know. Then again some teams grow into the tournament...

    Could be difficult to start a first game on your own soil. Pressure might have clipped their wing.

    Aye, and the team that grows the most will be most likely to win. See Germany 2 years ago and Spain the 6 years before that.

    Yes that is definitely true. Home turf pressure is immense. First thing I noticed is how nervous the France team looked during the anthems.

    Keeper fucks that up.

    But of all the people to score, it's the guy who was booed by his own fans a couple of weeks ago.

    My ass he is. If that keeper did his job it wouldn't be a goal. Hardly makes Giroud amazing.
