Alonso got his first cap and did not look out of place even though he didn't have to do much.
Giroud scored for France.
Hazard has been directly involved in 26 goals in his last 26 matches for Belgium.
Jorgino scored for Italy, but apparently had a poor game, did anyone see it?
Bats scored a couple for Belgium.
And it looked like Ampadu had a poor game from what I watched lastnight.
Did anyone see our boys in action? Any stand outs? what do we make of Ampadu?
Giroud making a statement, and should he start the next game?

Azpi is like 3rd choice RB for Spain, even Nacho is preferred to him.
Giroud should start vs Cardiff, at least he occupies the defenders and creates space for other players. Did well vs Van Dijk yesterday getting in front of him for the goal.
Heard Jorginho was at fault for the goal but made amends by the scoring from the spot. As mentioned with Jorginho previously, he has the tendency to lose the ball in important areas.
Mbappe steals the limelight for France, didn't see Kante having to do much yesterday.
Ampadu was good in their victory midweek but Wales were poor in general vs Denmark.

I thought he did ok against Denmark, the pen awarded against him was very harsh.

I was not using the pen against him tbh, just thought he has a poorish game in general despite a couple little surges forward

Ampadus passing is unreal for his age 2 more years and he will be at cesc´s level fantastic player and if he remains a defender will be a new JT. Him and Christensen could our future CB´s quick with good passing ranges both ok in the air and not afraid to get stuck in ….Nice

Sorry doh, but that was a stonewall penalty,apart from that was average.
I watched Kante against Germany,even the German commentator couldn't stop mentioning him.
Rudi's love bite on Pavard, was a bit excessive though !

We should have kept Batshuayi as supersub and start with Morata and Giroud upfront as a striker partnership in crunch matches and in difficult teams which mark a lot of players and park the bus,we should play Giroud and Batshuayi with Morata as supersub!

We play 4-3-3, how do you plan on having 2 strikers up top?

Our wing options are too good to sideline, so Sarri can't play 4312 or 532, and he's not gunna play 442.
If Sarri's a success this season and continues into next, Batshuayi's gunna have to make a decision on his career.
