If Spain win today, it could be that they're simply that good and their talent pool is insane especially in the midfield department.
Yeah but their players don't jump out. Their style of play sef is not must see TV.

Ask yourself who you would take in your team apart from Rodri and Yamal, maybe Cubarsi for upside but you wouldn't take the rest. Yet they look a class above France who most people argued is the most talented team in the competition

Make Deschamps lose this game fess! He will tell us why of all days, he chose to start Tchouameni today over Kone, knowing the former is just returning from a nagging injury. You can see he isn’t able to cover the spaces..

He is more defensively aware than Doue...
Then a third midfielder would have been better for this game with Dembele being on the bench..

There's no reason Doue shouldn't have started.. He's a phenomenon in the opposition half

That Rodri na demon


So cool on the ball. Plays as if there is no opponent chasing him down.
Seriously, his single-handed control of the midfield is incredible. Plays like he's got four legs


Thats why Olise is very lucky with that red card worthy tackle on Rodri.

Barcola has terrible decision making and can't even get the better of any fullback so I don't understand what you're saying
A couple bad decisions aside, he's been the most lively for France offensively
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by patrickmuf(m): 9:05pm On Jul 14
Spain will still score another goal because France has no choice but to push more players forward.

Deschamps should have lined up with a midfield of Rabiot, Tchouameni, and Kone. Kone’s energy would have been massive for them.

Play Mbappé from the left, Dembele as a false nine, and Olise on the right.

France actually outplayed them that first half. All they had was meaningless possession. And of course, a goal changes perspectives.

Mumu coach statted bacola.

Also Oliseh is not a midfielder so there is no way he wont be outplayed against spanish midfield.

Rabiot and tchoumeni are not as tchnical as rodri, ruiz and olmo.

Oliseh should just stick to the RW while dembele play the free roll.

Is Oliseh even a play maker? Smh

Aside goal scoring Barcola can beat full backs with his pace and square the ball to mbappe or anyone crashing the box. He sped past porro and almost created a goal earlier on. They tried to catch Spain on transition cause of the midfield control before they switched. He's also better at tracking back. Doue can come in and change the game sha
What do you mean aside goal scoring? Na Semifinal be this ooo not group stage..

Super powered France did not even create a single goal-scoring chance in the first half.

This Spanish midfield plus defence is really underrated

There is ecerything wrong with starting a bacola in this type of game. You need bacola in the second half or to start in a dead rubber game.

A player whose only interest is to show boat and not make any good business decision in the final third shouldnt be starting for a team like france against a whole spain. Anything he can do, doue will do times 10 better. Doue know qhen to dribble, when to pass and more goal sense than this foolish yahoo boy
Playing dembele on the LW with olise switching to the right while using a three man midfield could have helped better in the midfield battle but Deschamps doesn't want to change what worked for him which is reasonable. Doue himself hasn't had a solid tournament but he can come in and change the game sha. The game isn't over anyways and France are still in this game cause they need lesser chances to score due to their variety

England own this trophy. I want the ballon d or to be between kane and mbappe..so I want both for finals
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by ThierryJay: 9:08pm On Jul 14
And Yamal never really wake up for this game.

Spain should utilize his side more.

Rodri alone na team on him own, France gragra no go work here o
The guy is really a midfield masterclass.. he has it all, positioning, close control, passing,body movement. Unless he got injured I am sure none of the French midfielder will look like they are doing anything.

Wow, I just saw Olise's foul on Rodri. That was a nasty challenge, and I'm surprised he wasn't even cautioned for it. Hmm.
I am not hearing rigged anymore

Yeah..I have always expected him to play front 3 of dembele (LW) mbappe and oliseh(RW) ...and a midfield of rabbia, Tchoumeni and Cherki.

Cherki sef can also create chances amd score. It would have been more reasonable than having this bacola.
