Poor lacazette, he deserves at least to be in the team. Same goes for Payet, he has been tremendous for OLympic lyon.will kimpembe be starting in place of umtitti, or will it be zouma? Or could Pavard move to CB, and have Sidibe at RB? this last one would be my favourite choice. lets hope Areola starts, or Mandanda, as areola is still young, or because mandanda may retire soon. let Lloris "recover" from his "injury" he doesnt look ready. hopefully dembele gets more minutes now, as he has been crucial for barca. im surprised Sakho was chosen over Lenglet, and we are all waiting for Laporte to make a decision, France or Spain.

Still can't understand why Rabiot is not there... He has a been a key midfielder to PSG since the preseason The guy held his own against an experienced Liverpool midfield

I'm still surprised Deschamps still took Giroud. Martial is 7 times better
Do you know why Giroud was picked ahead of others mate?he is the best target man ever but can’t often score goals. Others can and will score goals but the role that Giroud plays can’t be played by anyone in the French team and that is why he still is ahead of other strikers. He holds the ball long enough for other players to join up play and the way he flicks the ball to those players leaves the opposing defenders open and often France scores in those instances. You can do anything to Giroud,hack him down elbow him and wrestle him down he will not retaliate and will be bandaged and with a smile would be back and doing his job. He is not scoring goals at Chelsea but look according to the look of things he is our main striker,that tells it all so don’t be surprised if you see his name in all team sheets.

I personally think France will regret taking too much chances with Laporte cuz I doubt if any one can tell me Zouma n sakho are better than him.
U know football, perhaps his manager is not talking or playing along;,as well like other good players we know supposed be in that team

If he didn't have an attitude issue, he could have been one of the best French players. He definitely deserves to be in there ahead of the likes of Pogba.... Pogba is criminally overrated.
yo Right bro. Miss him so hard.

Oh please, he had a full match to love himself and was getting outplayed by a championship level side lol...
united had a bad game ...so since Romero had a bad game you think Argentina will call cabalero ahead of him please think again before blaming united woes to Martial did you see the chances he created ? the first goal was all because of him ...despite playing out of his natural position ....don't just watch highlights or follow via live score please watch a live full match and dont judge one player instead of the team...

you just a hater Martial dosent deserve full 90 minutes but what i know he has made an impact of the bench than strikers who play 90 minutes without short on target ....just like gabriel get called ahead of ferminho in first squad and the likes of sane lacking in germany squad ..if Martial is overrated what do you make of Rashford who is even more overrated less talented but already has made his impact in england squad..

Not saying Morata ain't a flop, just saying Martial is. He's so overrated.

Zouma been injured mate. Under Terrys wing, Zouma showed much better promise. Plus the Nations cup thing is overrated, it's just a glorified friendly, anyone who takes it serious is wasting their time. That's why clubs don't send their best players unless it's very necessary...
yea its overrated but laporte is definitely better than zouma though

Martial isint a fop check your stats well you pugaa ....stats don't mean scoring week in week out ...they just reflect minutes per goal ...Martial not having the best seasons under mourinho just like Rashford but southgate choose Rashford in those friendly over sterling welbeck Vardy and walcot and the results were sublime ...and talking of Anderson have you heard him over the years??

Once a golden boy winner dropped ...Deschamps isin't serious club struggles doesn't mean nationality struggles ....if southgate couldn't have trusted Rashford just imgn those games could have ended without them scoring

Zouma is lucky fellow but digne deserved that ..
Zouma is a tank defender. If he didn't get injured he would have probably been at least a sub in our current squad....
