I think Mbappe's all right but his family management sucks

I also support all of his "gently caress you sponsor" endeavours for the national team and the FFF can eat poo poo imo

Apparently the French team all have an unspecified virus that gives them flu symptoms and makes them play badly and may have been given to them by Declan Rice: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/dec/16/varane-konate-and-coman-train-apart-virus-france-world-cup-final

It’s probably covid and they’re just not testing because then they’d actually have to do something

no it can't be covid they told me it was just a mystery unspecified virus that happens to have all the same symptoms as covid but doesn't require you to test or quarantine

For all the talk about France’s insane depth their options seemed limited this final. It was still all Mbappe in the end.

All of the subs in regular time were improvements imo, the criticism is that he just should've started with all of those guys.

Fairly certain Giroud greaseman and dembele were all sick and shouldn't have been on the pitch in the first place. Once they had their healthy b team on the pitch they looked good!
