France need to sort themselves out. They don’t look comfortable in this formation.

Yeah, they don’t look very solid at the back. I really don’t see the point of boring Deschamps negative tactics if they’re not even going to defend well.

Yeah I'd say he's changed his game so he's not blowing past defenders in open range as often and is more about shorter bursts, but he isn't slower.

 

I gotta confess though as effective as it is I don't particularly like the way he's evolving at PSG. Not really sure why.

That might explain it then. I just recall in the WC he was melting every defense with his speed and no one could do anything about it without sacrificing somewhere else. I haven't seen it from him so far in this tournament (French soccer is rarely on TV here so I've seen next to nothing of PSG).
