Well, it's something

If the score goes that way for either team I'd be overjoyed. Can't help but worry that despite the quality of both teams we're going to see a 1-0 result here.

If France click then they should walk through Argentina. With Kante terrorizing the slow old ass midfield. However, DD is far too defensive so, I don't think they can score too many today. Expecting a 1-0 game.since Argentina are inept at creating anything.

Messi is the false 9 today. Which means Argentina will be strikeless. Inevitabley messi will be dropping back. .
Pavon and ADM as his flanks. Sampa almost has it right just need Dybala as the striker with messi behind him.

 

[Turtleneck Plek]

DD starting Matuidi as a left mid/winger again. It's like he's trying to f*** things up on purpose.

If it's 1-0, it will be Argentina. I don't see France keeping a clean sheet, I don't trust Lloris right now.

If it's 2-1 or more, it will be France.

I doubt any manager ever has chosen to leave this kind of attacking force on the bench/out of team. It's really weird that none of the best players in the world at the most heralded position in the game won't start.

 

[maclean]

These coaches do know that losing this game doesn't give them any strategic advantage later in the tournament right

2 had their chances. One has failed spectacularly who shouldn't be on the team and the other has been hampered by injuries . Dybala is for some reason not seen as a 9 thank you f***ing Allegri and the other is cancer.

Unfortunately for France, Higuain is out. I’d rather he be in so it would be 11 vs. 10.

 

[Evilo]

Higuain's born in France. Of course he would play for us.

 

[Ceremony]

My boy Lionel learned from the best: Messi is right to take control of Argentina and I can relate - Barry Ferguson

 

[Ceremony]

Evilo where did they find this right back

 

[Loopy0ne]

can't decide who to root for - first big game

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Mbappe is going to terrorize Argentina.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

[TP]

[Halladay]

[Jussi]
