For me, their weakness is in defence - highly inexperienced. I would prefer if Rami started in place of Varane but we all know politics happens in football too.
Would of put Dembele before Fekir but his lack of recent playin' time & poor form drops him to the bench.

Babanlagenius:
To have left out players like Martial ,Benzema, and Laccazette it means they just want to minimize error. But wow! A whole Martial. This is preposterous.

I think the coach wants players that can both defend when off the ball and attack likewise with the ball. This three names always appear lazy on the field of play. France will Get to the final.
