World Cup 2018

Should have signed Mbappe, not Dembele

Dembele is useless against defensive teams. He only shines in counter attacks because he is given space

I've watched pretty much all Dortmund games and there were plenty of times where he excelled in tight spaces against defensive teams. it's hilarious that this myth keeps getting thrown around.

also, mbappe has been just as bad in this game.

 

[El Flaco]

Griezemann should have been concentrating on this match, instead he was planning on how to be a big idiot with his Tv show

I think it's more down to Deschamps not utilizing Griezmann correctly by playing him out of position.

 

[Catta]

I have a feeling that Dembele will be the first one to be substituted, maybe even at half time.

 

[Jenks]

Just bring Giroud on and he'll get on the end of something no problem.

It's funny, because when the ball is at the French attacking player, there's no one from the 2nd line coming up to create superiority. It's basically a situation like, here's the ball guys, go and score. Abysmal.

Mbappe can actually get past players, but he keeps finding himself surrounded by the 4-5 players

Yep. Mbappe takes the ball and tries to dribble past 3-4 players and loses it almost every single time. That's dumb.

 

[Andresito]

They're like a bunch of friends gathered to play some football. They lack a leader.
Dembélé and Mbappé are right up Griezmann's arse, no width.

Never thought I'd say this but I think they'd be a better team with Giroud on the pitch.

 

[Laplacian]

Disappointment of a match, think Imma go take a nap. When's Argentina VS Iceland?

 

[Devils]

The whole French team has been trash.

Bunch of individuals who have zero cohesion.

 

[Hamzah]

If you want to watch a cohesive team watch Germany. Also Germany has many players from immigrant backgrounds and they do very well.

 

[MessiTBE]

Dechamps does not have clue what he doing. How they kept him after euros I cannot believe.

Brazil, Spain, are pretty cohesive too.

bet you dembele will get subbed first and mbappe will be moved to the wings

What does this prove? Mbappe and Dembele were in the pocket of Australian players all half minus 1-2 moments.

 

[Joan]

Mbappe can actually get past players, but he keeps finding himself surrounded by the 4-5 players

And Dembele can't? Both been poor.

 

[MessiTBE]

Thing is, Argentina will be like this too.

Ive been saying that too. Giroud is an underrated player who would actually suit this team and they midfield they have.

 

[Joan]

Giroud on the pitch suits their midfield and Griezmann.
