Group E Match Topic: ( France, Switzerland, Ecuador, Honduras)

Surprised there hasn't been a thread for this one. Switzerland have thrillingly snatched three points from Ecuador in the last minute of stoppage time! Predictions for the Swiss to proceed into the next round with group favourites France are currently on course! Next up at 8pm (UK time) France v Honduras. I think France will do well at this World Cup. Semi finalists possibly? Will also be intrigued to see how Mamadou Sakho gets on. I'm banking on him having an excellent tournament!

Just home from work and whipped BBC on. Looking forward to seeing how France do, squad have really matured since the last WC.

Brilliant managerial decision by Deschamps to not bring Nasri to the tournament either. Clearly he's not standing for petulant, juvenile sh*te that would inevitably bring the French squad crashing down.

Exactly. Be interesting to see how they do though and I also reckon they'll get to the quarter's or semi's.

French team for tonights game.

Lloris, Debuchy, Evra, Varane, Sakho, Cabaye, Valbuena, Benzema, Griezmann, Matuidi, Pogba

Agree with you completely although it would have been nice to see more of his Mrs

Will also be shouting on big Mama to have a great tournament, think this one should be an easy victory for France.

Before the World Cup started France were my outside pick to win it, we played them earlier this year and their midfield just crushed us. I think it's a good thing Ribery is out for them, he wasn't at his best for a while now.

Oh god, I'd forgot about Jonathan Pearce.

It will be interesting to see if Honduras kick the sh*t out of France, or was it just England being given this privileged treatment.

Evra the dirty b***ard,booked again ! bet he scores the bloody winner for them !

Evra up to his usual standard.

Nothing I hate more than someone gesturing for a card... annoys the hell out of me.

Pearce is just willing Sakho to make a mistake.

c**t.

Really like this French side.

Valbeuna, Matuidi, Pogba, Cabaye and Greizmann in particular.

C**t.

Yep, Sakho has been outstanding and showing a lot of leadership.

Valbuena and Pogba also been fantastic, very unlucky not to be leading by a couple already France. Good performance so far, they just need that goal of course.

Honduras are a joke, kicking chunks out of everyone.

Had £5 on France to win the World Cup last week at approx. 28/1. Hoping they win tonight to take pressure off the Switzerland game. They need to top the group to avoid a possible 2nd round tie with Argentina.

Glad to see him get his second yellow, should have been sent off for the challenge on Pogba.

Hope France score this, they've deserved the lead and I can't stand teams that kick players rather than play the game.

28/1 b***ard, I've had a sneaky bet on them too but not near that price, well done.

This Ref is taking no sh*t. Good to see.

Honduras being Honduras.

Jonathan Pearce is stupid beyond belief.

Can't believe he's still going on about it.

It's embarrassing to listen to, it's even worse when you consider you're contributing towards his wages by paying your license fee. It did exactly what it needed to, showed that Benzema didn't score directly, showed that it went in after the contact with the keeper, meaning it can easily be given as an own goal immediately.

As for the way Honduras are conducting themselves they need booting out of the bloody tournament, although it's nice to see Evra get smacked a few times.

Jonathan Pearce is stupid beyond belief.

Agree. He's F***ing moron.

Pissing me right off.
