Group A - France, Romania, Albania, Switzerland

[grecian]

Decent game for an opener it has to be said, much more open then I was expecting. Hope it's a sign of things to come.

 

[Uppercut]

Yeah loads of fun. Hopefully we see more of the same but France have by far the biggest gap in quality between attack and defence in the tournament so you'd expect their games to be like this.

 

[Pothas]

What a player.

 

[Pothas]

So Deschamps subbed their three best players off over the course of the match, which is interesting. Also why on earth is Sissoko anywhere near their national squad?

Don't think Pogba was all that good.

 

[Pothas]

Also how good is Kante, there is no way his being amazing is just an 'its the way Leicester play' thing.

Don't think Pogba was all that good.

What game were you watching?

 

[Pothas]

Meh plenty of fancy stuff and a few great balls but lot of waste in there as well.

 

[Furball]

Also how good is Kante, there is no way his being amazing is just an 'its the way Leicester play' thing.

Kante and Matuidi are an amazing pairing. Throw in Pogba beside them and it's an amazing midfield trio.

Meant in general rather than on the night. Pogba was good I thought, more creative than Griezmann. Not sure what the thinking behind taking them all off was, particularly Griezmann and Pogba early.

 

[grecian]

Kante is always one of your best players, he even made idiots think Drinkwater was good.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Pogba looked the sort of player you want getting the ball a little bit further up the field and one you'd be holding your breath if he gets it deep, he gave the opposition every chance of winning the ball off him.

 

[Furball]

lol

 

[duffer]

Heh, first time I'm seeing Granit play and the first thing he does is dive in two footed with studs up on an Albanian player.

Me like.

 

[duffer]

Terrible keeping

 

[duffer]

There's a lot of angry in these Xhaka boys

 

[Scaly piscine]

That sort of foul should be red card/sin binning. Totally blatant professional foul.

Yes they're certainly fired up. Went all Cantona on that goal post there.

 

[duffer]

Oh ffs Gashi....

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Living up to his name with that miss was Gashi.
