Haha!! But Morocco acquitted themselves very well in the game tho. They were the better team for a vast swathes of the game. I think they were just unlucky and their inexperience cost them as well. Conceding that fluke first goal didn’t help either.

The good news is, I think Messi and Argentina can defeat this French team. France got badly exposed by England and Morocco.


O pari


What's good about that.

The Bad news is that France is going to Flog Argentina 3-1

Have a great morning

Thank you, while these guys may have the coaching badges, I did a google search on their coaching careers and there's nothing impressive there at all. Efan is excelling in media no doubt but no coaching job yet. Now I agree absolutely that these guys were all good players in their days except for Akinbiyi who I don't know much about.

Ade played for Nigeria and was a striker with a number of EPL clubs .

But even John hasn't coached since like 2016. He had a stint at Crystal Palacd U16 then one season as senior team coach and nothing since then.

Darren Moore was left to rot in West Bromwich Albion academy with no opportunity.

Fast forward WBA were about to be relegated and he was given the job did so well narrowly missed staying up.

He was sacked when WBA were third place in the Championship. Ledly King and Sol Campbell all badges completed but no opportunity.

Gerrard, Lampard and Rooney have barely retired and they were manageing top teams.

Gareth Southgate became Manager of Middlesbrough with no qualifications.

It's called racism and white privilege.

I know these guys don't think because they didn't get certain experience that thry can't do the job.

The football politics want Messi to win 1 world cup..

Expect Argentina to get penalties against France.

How do is football politics want Messi to win the wield cup ?

Griemann is the unsung hero of that French team, dude is best described as box-to-box attacking midfielder
His energy, his foresight, his sleek moves and his passes are too good to be ignored
Ppersonally I pick him as my man of the tournament for France
Kudos Griezmann!



Griezmann is the heartbeat of that French team. Everyone loves to talk about Mbappe but I'm of the opinion that if you remove Griezmann from that team, it is going to fall. He's the orchestrator of everything good in that team.

At the beginning before the start of the world cup when I said that the French were formidable I knew what I was saying.

To think they have gotten to the final without the services of Benzema, Kante, Nkunku and Pogba makes it that more impressive this feat of reaching the finals.

If Mbappe nabs a second World Cup title then he will most definitely be in the GOAT conversation.

we should also put giroud in goat conversation and even griezman who was their best player at the 2018 world cup

Make everybody kuku become goat once and for all

The 21st Century GOATs fanboys war is set: Messi Fanboys vs CR7 fanboys

Messi Fanboys: We know what they want. Messi to lift that WC and finally end the MessiVsCR7 debate FOR GOOD.
Also want Messi and Argentina winning it so they can boldly place Messi super comfortably in the class of Pele and Maradona.
Honestly speaking it would be the perfect way for Messi to finally end his WC journey but... it doesn't matter what I think. He and Argentina just gotta turn up.


CR7 Fanboys: Obviously prefer Mbappe and France winning another World Cup rather than face a night and Christmas of Premium banter against their Lord, Cristiano Ronaldo. Lol

Note that they call Mbappe, Baby Ronaldo/Ronaldo’s apprentice.

Need I say more? grin .


In a nutshell, the WC Final is still kinda a Messi vs Ronaldo Final on a low key, from these perspectives. grin


Ronaldo fan boys are fasting so mbappe can win the world cup ahead of messi grin

I completely disagree while griezeman has stepped up 10x over from last World Cup.

I still think he’s a focal point and the heartbeat still remains mbappe

Because they hardly disappoint.

If this guy hit the peak that’s expected from him watch how scout will ravage his country leagues

There’s a reason while top clubs pay top dollar for Brazilian prospects. Because they rarely flop very hard

Bros to inspire your country to reach 2 world cup finals and probably win both in this modern era no be beans.

Why else do we hail greats like Pele and Maradona if not their world cup performances?

Yes the world cup is the peak of international football but Mbappe regardless of his contribution will be in the conversation of football greatest like Zidane, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Cruyff, Paulo Rossi, Thomas Muller, Puskas, Ronaldo de lima, Baggio, Romario, etc but not GOAT

It's remarkable how the French have managed to get the best out of their present golden generation ..on the verge of back to back world cup titles.

Germany was unfortunate that their recent golden generation peaked about the same time with that of Spain. England hasn't done badly but Belgium been a let down.

I hope this our NFF can learn a thing or two from these countries.

If Mbappe is faster, it will be just a little. There is no much difference between their speed.

Andy, thank you. I talk am. Dembele is fast, he just doesn't use his speed most of the time because he is a dribbler.

Exactly because I remember in the early days

Mbappe was so fast that he always leaves the ball behind grin
