Pogba and Griezmann dropped. Payet in the Number 10 role.

A couple of nice bits from Payet so far. Crowd sound very excited when he gets on the ball.

Martial keeps getting in good positions but looks like a scared little boy when he gets the ball

Superb display by Albania, not being afraid to play rather than sit back and have probably had more decent chances than the French.

Quick insight into Slav's mindset there....admit when you've got it wrong and make the change. Something he did more than once last season :thup:

Albania are like a team of Jack Russell's - they don't give France an inch fair play to them.

Karembeu's English is rubbish btw.

Anyone wondering why Lacazette wasn't selected should note Deschamps refusal to play Martial through the middle.

France look flat and a little short of ideas.

England style really.

France have no fluidity because Albania are defending all over the pitch like Trojans.
Popgba and Coman are too selfish and no one has thier shooting boots or 'Wurzel Gummidge' heading heads on.

Pogba's value dropping all the time, was looking forward to seeing what all the fuss is about, massively unimpressed.
