To be fair, it is kinda the role given to Mbapp?.
Last WC, locker room speech of Deschamps was akin " defend well, everyone has to trackback with only Mbapp? staying high and once we get the ball back, quickly send it to Kylian".
Yup ! Defence is their strongest point and it is lost with the injuries. What is left is an average team with some great talents. Hence why i had warned Switzerland and other teams can exploit them.
