    France dropping Pogba and Griezmann to the bench for today's game. Wow I know they didn't play that well(it can be argued that Pogs had a good first half) but those are 2 world class talents you just don't drop after one game.

    I just want to see a great tournament, I'm not a France fan or anything.

    Second game, France looks weak again. Guess we have to cut them from our favorites list for now.

    I should've known. France's lack of goals and Giroud playing correlate.

    There hasn't been any really dominating performance in this tournament, by that logic there'd be no favouritesfavourites right now.

    France had a crapload of chances tonight and can beat any team.

    I bet France regrets not taking Lacazette and Gameiro at this point. Giroud and Gignac suck.

    True, those decisions never made any sense.

    France should play Griezmann up top next game with Martial and Coman out wide, get Giroud out of there.

    Me too, which would unfortunately mean us losing to them in the semis. :p
    Also realized we'll likely face Italy in the quarters, very tough road to the title.

    Not like that. Offensively they were very uninspired in both matches and the defense has had "crapload of" problems. Let's not forget they defeated Romania and Albanaia - who are far from elite - just in the last seconds. Will be interesting to see how France does against Switzerland.
