As if benzema would have brought something different to the team

I still got your point though

The French team na all stars

So pressing is a joke to you?

A team shape with Benzema as against a team shape with Giroud are worlds apart

Before na 2.75 against Argentina's 2.85.(bet9ja)
Now 2.88 against Argentina's 2.85.
The final is Argentina's to lose. France will have to rely on moments of magic as they no get wetin them dey play.

We saw a team shaped with benzema at the euros

Not taking anything away from benz ,but giroud suits that team better

A40:
Seems there is a bit of tension between Benzema and Deschamps. Not sure bringing him would be a good idea. Mere looking at their body language when his name is brought up it's not screaming we're missing him and sad he's not able to play so far.

I think Giroud, Thuram and Muani are enough in the attack and hopefully Coman is also fine. Getting Benzema back doesn't guarantee anything

The worry is in defense. A Saliba or Upamecano against tricky players like Messi and Alvarez is recipe for disaster.

I'm not under any illusions that these refs will not blow PK at the slightest fvck up by France. They've given away 3 already and Argentina has won 4. So that's something to look out for

Coman is sick now. If Giroud or Thuram fall also sick before the final then it’s slim pickings. Tension or not it would be advisable to have Benzema on standby in Doha.

If 2 adult men with bia bia can’t get along for a couple of days to achieve their ultimate goal then they are both unserious.

At Aparisports, the player that beasted the final matters most to us. Courtois and not Benzema lifted Madrid to win by saving 9 shots on goal that night.

Nobody remembers the goals that got Man city to the final only to get knocked out by Chelsea. But everyone still remembers that Havertz scored from Mason Mount's assist in the final.


Courtois was lively while Benzema ghosted in the biggest Ucl match of the season.

go and sing it in to the birds..

Benzema was a starter from start to finish when it mattered most..

Not some carry-Alongs you always parade here

When benz was lighting up the whole place, hazard was on the bench eating burger and gala.


That is a perfect example of carry-along

I hope Ronaldo and Portugal are ready for tomorrow final against Argentina ?

You know these French folks can have a flair for the dramatic sometimes

But reason this thing well oh. Why and what are the odds that all the French players are suddenly falling sick. This is not even like France 98 where it was just one guy. It's a gang of people falling ill like anthrax was unleashed in their camp. They're not even disclosing the exact nature of the illnesses. I've never seen anything like it

Where I am for the past 3 weeks, the only website that can work here is nairaland.

Please egbon mii, tell me, is the sickness getting worse? How many French players are down now?

Just a friendly reminder,

If Messi wins the final, he will be the undisputed greatest footballer of all time. If Messi loses the final, he will be the undisputed greatest footballer of all time.

andrewbaba44:

No he doesn't. He puts too much pressure on the midfield as he cannot chase defenders stepping into midfield, nor does he offer any outball to the midfielders cos he can't chase anything.

One result doesn't change that. Same reason he was dropped for Havertz when Tuchel came in. Giroud can only play box football

They said they caught it from English players in the QF. There is a bad strain of flu going around in England sha, half my children's class have been bedridden

So if he wins he is still not greatest

If he wins, he can enter the debate for the greatest with a serious argument to back him up

Don’t worry stick with your goat

He remains among the greatest of all time ,winning or not

You guys will always pretend as if some certain players are better than Messi because of World Cup win

Nkunku signed and sealed

raumdeuter:
Busquets retires

While Tear-go is still checking the calendar for when 2034 world cup will start

Difference between those who achieve early in life and those who spent their youth doing unproductive things

No more Xavi, Iniesta or Messi to carry the spineless DM again. Escort merchant became useless since and finally bows out at 34, when his elder brother, Messi is still gunning for greatness.

Fraudsquets for a reason, according to your boy, A40.

CAPdan21:

Spineless Fraudsquets led who to where...
The people carrying busquets retired and the spindly legged fraud could not carry even his own frame...

Others stopped being his meruwa.

popizaino:



Pls don't call Sergio Busquet a fraud again cus for every Sergio Busquet who they carried there is equally a Stephen Gerrard carried by Alonso.

Alonso carried Gerrard? I hope you watched that Ucl classic against Milan and what Gerrard did there. In fact, Gerrard >>>>>>> Busquets + His father.

Heard Rabiot, Konate, Upamecano, Coman, Varane

nkunku don sign for chelsea , imagine nkunku behind moukoko , Hutchinson for right wing,leao for left ,fofana as back up striker,the squad depth I dreamt of is happening

A40:
Heard Rabiot, Konate, Upamecano, Coman, Varane

They have finally gotten FRANCE o. Rabiot, Konate, and Varane will be a big loss o.

Cap. Nothing like greatest if he fails in the Final again.

Which kin GOAT wey no fit lead traditional football superpower like Argentina to a World Cup title?

That GOAT issa counterfeit, placebo

Omooor. That's serious o.

But what type of flu is that?

I don't know why i am feeling this way.
Something is telling me that even mbappe and some of the french team wants Messi to win the world cup.

I wonder the kind of conversation that Neymar will be having with mbappe now.

Lol mbappe couldn't care less if France lose this one at all.
Messi is going to carry next year's balloon D'or anyways so what's the point.

Nkukun.

SIGNED SEALED DELIVERED.

I just pray to god that bundesliga have not scammed us again with the Germany fraud tax.

He must turn out to be good because if the opposite is the case, I may become depressed o.

If Messi wants to seal his status as GOAT, he has to win the WORLD CUP.
Unless his legacy will always come under question.

Just watched Dembele's interview, he literally said he wants Messi to win the world cup

These guys are literally Loyal to Lionel Messi, even griezman said the same thing.

Hahaha Ronaldo's fans will be sweating through their Asses now

Don't be surprised when Mbappe and dembele drops a 2 rating performance out of 10 tomorrow
