Worst French team since '10 - Griezmann looks like he's never played the game before

Quote

Giroud starting increases our chances of a 0-0 significantly. This ref has clearly decided there will be no penalties or VAR nonsense on his watch. Which I don't mind after yesterday's shenanigans.

Yes, Denmark are through unless they lose and Australia win, and beat Denmark's goal difference.

France ought to go against the current styling dogma and revive the shorter short; properly evoke the golden era of Platini and Giresse and Rocheteau.

Got it, thanks!

I'm learning a lot today, and I think I'm right in saying this has been "gash" so far, correct?

It's been nearly thirty years since the heyday of the short shorts. I'm surprised that one rogue kit manufacturer hasn't tried to revive them, it's long overdue.

Also the majority of these kits are very dull in terms of materials used. Bring back the ultra shiny, super short shorts of the late-80's - as seen when Peter Beardsley's cock fell out that one time.

Grizouille is really out of his depth

Fucking shite. I hate supporting this bunch of wankers

They're all colour by numbers kits, Nike being the worst

This group has been awful. They should have to forfeit a place in the next round as punishment.

It was Spurs who revived the long shorts wasn't it? 1991ish? I thought they looked utterly ridiculous at the time.

The half-time magic sponges and camembert segments can't come quickly enough for les Blancs.

I just don't understand their fucking attitude. I can only surmise that their IQs are less than 70, especially ET phone home Griezmann and Rylan Giroud

I had a pair of Adidas ones bought me in the eighties.  Mid-blue with white piping.  The heavy satiny material they were made from looked and felt decadently luxurious.

You could have told me it was the Jon&Ally show covering AUSPER, wasted bloody 45 minutes on Clive and Hod

But did they wick moisture away and keep you 41% cooler?

Sounds about right. Spurs' super baggy 1950's-style shorts with the draw string were the first set I remember. Once the Premier League came in everyone was wearing 'em and the days of the shirt hanging out, covering every inch of the micro-short, was over. Made sense at the time, it was a new beginning, the 1990's - short shorts, terraces and lobbing bits of the stadium at opposition fans went out of fashion almost overnight.

Little did we know that thirty years later we'd still be living through the never changing, never ending long-shorts era.

Peru scoring is good for everyone. It's good for the game of football.

no its bad, bad for my CaB fantasy score

Do you think in 20 years time we'll all be laughing at how today's players were wearing shirts 2 sizes too small, or will shirts have given way to just a sports bra by then?

If Sepp Blatter gets his way...
