Sounds interesting - I'm in. Will also be good to see what level I am at compared to others here.

He's a central midfielder like Vidal. Can play CDM and CAM but his best position is as a box-to-box midfielder - similar to Pogba in that regards.

You know, Old Trafford, even as a kid, before I was imagining I could be a top club manager, I always had this historical connection of Old Trafford as the Theatre of Dreams. And then the first time that I played there, it was exactly a dream because it was winning the Champions League with Porto – making history for myself and for my country. So for me, it was always that connection with, like, anything is possible so why can’t I do it with Man Utd playing at home with the stadium behind us. So, I’m waiting for them.

This makes me love him even more. You can tell this is his dream job, his final destination for his managerial journey. I hope he stays with us for 10+ years, I really do.

Well Rose is currently the starting LB as Shaw is out. So I would have Bertrand in the 2nd XI as Rose will be starting until Shaw gets his place back (hopefully soon but anything can happen).

I'd love Ronaldo to coach us in the future, his drive to win is incredible.

I think the issue is that they originally wanted to play Diarra behind and since he got injured they replaced him with Kante instead. However Kante didn't really fit like Diarra did so he got dropped and instead of playing with a DM like Schneiderlin or Cabye, they played a flat 3 midfield with Pogba and Matuidi dropping deep to cover the CB's.

The only problem with that is while Pogba/Matuidi can defend, they are much better further forward as box-to-box midfielders with a DM behind or paired with a DM. Since France were not playing with a DM, it meant Pogba dropped deeper which doesn't really utilize his talents properly. Matuidi didn't drop deep enough which meant Pogba had to, when I think Matuidi should of been the one to go deep more.

Also why was Sissoko playing instead of Kante? They look much better in the midfield with Kante playing behind Pogba and Matuidi, which explains why Pogba was dropping deep.

Wasting Pogba's attacking talents when you ask him to defend more and trust Sissoko of all players to take his role.

Yeah I agree that he hasn't been at his best, but not through a lack of trying. He could of easily had 5/6 goals this tournament as well. I think they look more balanced as most of their plays go through Ronaldo when he's on, otherwise their plays vary.

But he still did his part as captain and has stepped up during the many penalty shootouts they had, which is still no easy feet.

*Annoyed that Martial didn't get more playing time, even though he hasn't been great, it is hard to impress with 5/10 minute cameos. Similar to Hodgson and not playing Rashford. Not saying Martial would of won the game or whatever, but he has stepped up multiple times for us this season so no reason why he can't do the same for France if he was given the chance.

Also, congrats to Nani and especially Ronaldo. I was upset that he had to come off and seeing him cry but I am so happy he has won. I think the Ballon D'or is his for sure this year and thoroughly deserved.

*edit - got pissed off with /r/soccer and Martial not getting enough time on the pitch.

Because that guy who plays in Mexico is apparently France's savior, what with his ability to produce no chances himself and his mediocre technical ability.

Smalling would be in the first 11 by far, same as Rose (until Shaw is back).

Thoughts on this squad I just finished.
I have about 15k left but also have TOTS Bruno and Mkhitaryan which I can sell, though I'd rather keep Miki.
