hensben:After playing "rubbish" for 85mins, one would have thought Deschamps will bring on the "game changer", but no he decided to bring on a player who only scored 3 goals In a full season. 2 Likes |

All this talk about Deschamps not subbing Giroud in... France were defending a slim lead, Germany cranking up the pressure and with minutes left on the clock, it only made sense to bring in Tolisso to add steel and fresh legs to the midfield, and then bring in Dembele to add pace in the attack in the case of a counter. If France were chasing the game, I'm 150% sure he would've brought Giroud on. But yeah, agenda must agend. 12 Likes 1 Share |

MaziAlaye: Yeah cos it'd be pretty smart to bring in a 'game changer' when you're the one leading and coming under pressure, rather than reinforcing the midfield. Very very smart. 9 Likes |

hensben:Y'all talk like as if Germany started pressing them from 85mins.. Germany controlled the game throughout. Why didn't deschamps bring on Tolisso earlier on since it was to defend their lead 1 Like |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by hensben(m): 9:27am On Jun 16, 2021 |
MaziAlaye:Its not about pressing them from the beginning, the game is about to finish so it is wise to sub in a player and that player shouldn’t be a striker when you already leading and playing against Germany. |

The coach knows better. Me personally, i would start benzema ahead of giroud because of his workrate on and off the ball. Giroud is a stationary forward unlike benzema who is dogged and hardworking 4 Likes |

Germany was pressing hard throughout the game and Deschamps wasn't comfortable with an own goal lead.. why didn't he bring on Giroud early 2nd half to help or were they defending their lead throughout? 1 Like |

post=102775706:said this yesterday and some people came after me because of agenda Noticed that people here aren't opinionated, most are sheep that follow the flock, they can't think on their own, they follow established agenda and anybody with contrary opinion is foolish, dumb, doesn't have a good TV or isn't a Chelsea fan, typical nigerian behavior I don't give a Bleep if my opinion doesn't sit well with you or your agenda, I will say it as it is with no sentiment attached, yesterday havertz had a bad game, could argue that there were things that hindered his performance, I could but I accepted it, unlike you that make excuses for mount, being wrong isn't a sign of weakness, it's a chance to learn and improve whether you like what I say or not, everytime you stand against the truth, the stupid person isn't the person that is called stupid it's the person that is wrong and thinks that they are right When you eventually find out that you were wrong or sentimental, I don't need to call you stupid then, you will arrive at the conclusion on your own Peace 8 Likes

hensben:Deschamps would be so foolish to defend an own goal lead against a team like Germany... Why didn't he bring Giroud on around 50-60mins? Because the last time he subbed him on for benzema it was around late first half and he went on to score two goals, why not deschamps do it this time? Or is Giroud reserved for friendlies and not big matches? 1 Like |

MaziAlaye: Na wa o. I don't know whether to say this issue is being overflogged. You've said that Germany started controlling the game much earlier than the dying minutes. That is true. But perhaps that in itself partly explains why Benzema stayed in for as long as he did. Germany's hold on the game kept getting stronger by the minute. But I don't think it truly became a one way traffic till the lattter stages of the game, when France became confined strictly to defense and counterattacks. Leaving Benzema on - up till the 60th minute as you keep mentioning - wasn't necessarily a bad decision, cos Germany's defence became more and more susceptible WHILE France still had a fair amount of control of the game. At that point, France were doing both attacking and counterattacking in fair measure. Bemzema can lead the attack when the team has possession, and he can contribute valuably on the break as well. What's more, Benzema's mobility advantage means he would contribute more to defense that Giroud would. But when it became a strict case of attack vs defense, by then it made little sense to bring in Giroud. Instead, introducing Tolisso to add steel to the midfield and aid the defence was a smarter move, as was the later introduction of the pacy Dembele. 4 Likes |

TheHulk616: If not for the dearth of quality strikers in world football, France wouldn't have recalled this bag of beans. Now 3 matches, no goal. Even Dayokanu aka Raumdeuter knew Benzema has always been a useless striker, long time ago.
