      Have France no other left backs?

      Evra is abysmal he makes Moreno look like a defender.

      Hard to believe he's still playing (only one with Lloris to have "survived" 2010 world cup debacle).
      I see like half a dozen full backs I'd trust more in our home championship alone (ie : having legs), he's purely there because of his larger international experrience and big club pedigree (while I don't remember he had any really good performance in his last 30 caps or so), and perhaps because he's an ex-Monaco player from the time Deschamps trained them.

      Wtf did we not go for Xhaka? In those 45 mins of watching the Swiss, I see Alonso in him.

      Dzemailli is the one midfielder i thought really stood out. Nice to see a midfielder burst in to the box and get on the end of attacks.

      Hope he knocks one in (for the sake of my fantasy team).

      Been a decent game this, thought the red card would have killed it but Albania have done well.

      What a save that was by Sommer. How's he got his hands up to that?

      Good game, that. Didn't expect it after the red card but both teams had a fair crack at it.

      Shame for Albania. Deserved something from it.

      Wow wow, really didn't want Albania to score because it would have fu**ed my accumulator up second game in... but wow what spirit and fight they showed. They performed brilliantly with 10 men and deserved something from the game. Credit to them! Should really score with the chances they had but well played Sommer in goal for the Swiss, some cracking saves.

      When I was in Switzerland I was told he was going to Wolfsburg for something silly like 30m euros. Not sure if true. Supposed to be a really good player

      According to Swiss newspaper "20 Minutes" Manc is in negotiation to sign him for £15 million. "Leipziger Volkszeitung" reported that £90,000 a week contract is on the table.

      Enjoyable game. Keepers were the best players on the pitch. Switzerland unimpressive in the circumstances really.

      Rumours that Pogba and Griezmann dropped for tonight in favour of Coman and Martial. Payet to play behind Giroud with Matuidi and Kante in midfield.

      Swiss v Romania now. Not expecting too much in this one.

      I was literally typing how Switzerland is my pick but they lack a goal scorer and Seferovic misses a sitter. He has looked sh*te so far this tournament.

      Romania still have trouble scoring so I'm going to say Switzerland nick a 1-0.

      :f_tongueincheek:

      Game has gone how i thought but that doesn't bring back my accumulator that had 1 goal or less in the match :D

      I really like the movement of Dzemailli for Switzerland. A midfielder that drops back but always willing to burst forward in to the box and not isolate the lone striker. Hasn't done too much with the ball but always in a good position.

      I like how France are setup with their 2 midfielders. Yes, not quite a creative midfield, but they are marshaling the middle well. I think it's time for them to drop Giroud and bring on Griezmann!

      As for the Albanians, they are impressing as a team!

      France with a last minute goal again. They're going to have to do better than this if they want to win it, not been impressed with them at all.
