[McNamara That Ghost...]

Paddington. :bow:

[Globalgunner]

OG starts.
Always rated him.

[Marc Overmars]

Come on Padders :bow:

[Marc Overmars]

The commentator named dropped Paddington :bow:

[Globalgunner]

Awesome save by the French Spud

[Marc Overmars]

1-0 Mbappe taps it in

[Globalgunner]

1-0 Mbappe taps it in

We almost signed him, y`know

[Globalgunner]

1-0 HT

[SMatthews]

Griezmann showing he is nothing without Giroud playing ahead of him.

[Marc Overmars]

Scores plenty without Giroud at club level to be fair.

Though granted he seems more effective in the French team with Giroud.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

With Costa supporting him. Seems to need a big target man to play off tbh.

Anyway, please not another 1 - 0.

FFS Peru! So close.

.

He's only ever played with Costa for 5 months of this year.

Costa left for Chelsea the summer Atleti signed Griezmann.

[Globalgunner]

Peru giving the French all that they can handle.

[Özim]

How does Deschamps produce such average displays with the amount of talent he has at his disposal. Such a poor coach.

He is the French Dunga

[Özim]

He is the French Dunga

I thought that was Domenech. Somehow the French FA have managed to find another one and again keep him in the job for a long time. Should have lost his job after losing to Portugal in the Euros.

That’s what I meant, in the French side. It was the same at the Euro’s.

[Marc Overmars]

The top sides in this tournament have been shite.

[Globalgunner]

Comparatively he is more aligned with Dunga than Domenech

Both dull as dishwater DM in their playing careers
Both won the WC
Both went on to manage their country
Both uninspiring tactically

Domenech is just awful on all levels

[Globalgunner]

Peru just can`t score. Home they go

[Marc Overmars]

:sleep:

Hopefully Messi provides some entertainment later.

[Master Splinter]

Bif the difference for France again.

Dids has done to Pavard what WUMger did to Chambers.

Peru :wave:.

[Master Splinter]

:sleep:

Hopefully Messi provides some entertainment later.

They're even more uninspiring than France.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Paddington was robbed.

Also, this is the Boring, Boring Arsenal World Cup. :bow:

[SMatthews]

Yep, the get behind the ball in numbers and slog it out in midfield game plan has been almost everywhere. Maybe once the big teams start facing off against each other we’ll get more open games.
