FIFA World Cup 2018 - Semi-finals [10/11 July] **spoilers**

Belgium's big players (bar Hazard) not turning up, Lukaku non existent, De Bruyne has been poor.

Yet another promising attack from France ruined by Giroud, he is actually dog ****.
 
Giroud is just Giroud, a few other places they seem disappointed but this is classic Giroud. Run on to the end of a chance from open play, useless. Almost scores a header that is behind him and from way out, awkward position again standard him. Scores awkward stuff, screws up the simple chances.

Why France start him I have no idea.

Mbappe though, his passing and creativity is just ridiculous. He runs the ball with the power and pace of (fat) Ronaldo, he has the creativity of Henry at his best, he has the finishing of Henry... and he mostly has none of the theatrics of Neymar. He can dribble without falling over every four seconds. Kid is already a star but what he could be in a few years. He needs to get out of PSG though, joke league, no competition, with Neymar being a giant ***** and wanting all the attention and focus on him he needs to get somewhere that is both really challenging in the league to help him progress even further and to play in a team without Neymar.

He is like the French version of Heskey. Mbappe and Martial could have been a crazy combo!
 
Some of France's one-touch passing is sublime, Lukaku has been a waste of space last few matches Batshuayi was more impressive for me.
 
I think England would prefer to play France over Belguim anyway.

I just feel Belgium is too awkward for England. France more conventional other than Mbappe.

Problem is France have the midfield 3 who basically turn into 6 players when defending, even with Pogba.
 
I have no idea what formation Belgium are playing now.

Have they gone to a back 3 with either Fellaini or Hazard trying to be the left wing back?! Chadli hasn't moving from the middle of the pitch for a good 10 minutes now.
