    Zinedine Zidane

    Damn right. The man is perfect for that job right now. It's like when Zidane took over at Real. The France squad is filled with stars. They only need someone that has the respect of the whole lockeroom.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Last time I've checked Messi tops the individual stats for attackers and attacking midfielders. And that happens pretty much every season. And he did that with the best team around him and with one not even top 5 around him. Messi 2011 couldn't have won us the CL this season by himself.

    Antoine Griezmann

    were did you come up with this shite about team being built around mbappe? griezmann's position and role hasn't changed since deschamps took over. and they've played some dire football along the way, for a such formidable squad. again making griezmann bigger than he really is. mbappe eclipsed...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    he is the no 1 favorite right now. not "among the favorites". surely it means something. even if you disregard the fact he is still the best player around.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    the bookies placed him as favorite, mate. barcaforum isn't a betting site and its members don't vote for the ballon d'or.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    many follow this team to see messi play. no other player in our squad is even close to half of the attention messi generates. even in covid times he is the guy that sells the most for fc barcelona. he's also a club icon that ties in well with the la masia philosophy and all that. not just a...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    why would 60M a year for 2 seasons be too much for Messi at 34-year-old? if he is by far and away our best player. 12M a year for Dembele, 16M a year for FDJ or 20M a year for Griezmann offered better return because they were in their 20s when they got those contracts?

    Antoine Griezmann

    he would be stupid to do that. at NT and Atletico he had two defensive managers that used him in a role tailored to his strengths. let's see what happens if zidane takes over the french NT. mbappe is clearly the future and the team should be build to maximize his output. griezmann at 30 doesn't...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    It could be that they wait for the contract to expire and re-sign him as a free agent? Another case of financial workaround so as to lighten the burden on the accounting books?

    Tbf Mbappe is the one who looks set for taking up the mantle from Messi. He achieved so much for a 21 year old. A The main issue he had is not having a Pep/Sir Alex for manager at club or NT. Like Messi and Ronaldo benefited from having early in their careers. There was nobody to mentor him. At...

    Paul Pogba

    Yeah, better than at Man Utd for sure. Decent EURO at most, overall. Was just surprised to see him being dominated by the swiss midfielders. Heard he didn't care about Deschamps and just dictated tactical instructions at the end of the game. Maybe he'll turn out a good manager.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    I'm calling them bums when compared to Messi. Don't think I've mentioned big games as argument, even though it's a deciding factor. Never denied he could have been better in those games, even though some of the performances were decent to good. Mbappe and Haaland are fine players and they've...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    so just some overblown ranting about a water carrier like kante "singlehandedly" eliminating real madrid. and that you would happily take two young players that either had an unspectacular season or don't even play at an elite level yet. discussion is about right now, not what you imagine would...

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Aside from Lewandowski(who is a legendary striker), those other bums are not even worth mentioning. Lewandowski on the other hand stat pads in a league that is dominated by his team. Who do you recon would be better than Messi right now?

    Lionel Messi - v7

    realistically speaking, he is still the best player around. mbappe winning the euros wouldn't have made him a better player than messi.

    so you think it's ok that some of the players that represent your national team, to just go on sex marathons with prostitutes(underage or not)? or to call the manager a "son of a whore" and then not train?

    Ousmane Dembélé

    This reminds me of Football Manager, when I wanted to just get rid of a player and offered him to other clubs for free. Only to be ignored by everyone.

    Lionel Messi - v7

    Most likely scenario. That's why Messi would have to deliver an epic performance vs Brazil in the final. And not even sure that would be enough.

    That team is full of overrated divas anyway. Played some shite football in three consecutive international tournaments and they're acting all like some historical team. Luckily for them Deschamps brought some discipline along with the shite football. Otherwise they would've been involved in...
