[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 1111538, member: 70552"] It's really par for the course since the draw came out - 4 v 5 in the FIFA rankings except France are the defending world champions. But agree apart from the USA game, which was by far the worst performance, all the other games have been relatively comfortable compared to past world cups. Historically whenever England come up against a team with a special generational player like Mbappé, we've been on the wrong end - thinking of Maradona, Zidane, Ronaldo, Cristiano R, Ronaldinho. France definitely start as favourites. But then history is only guide and the patterns there to be broken. I think these are the big games to really look forward to because they don't happen that often. [/QUOTE]
