Stars

Kylian Mbappe is the certain star of this France team and scored four goals at the last World Cup as an adolescent. The PSG forward is already halfway to flattering the side’s all-time top scorer, a record he will no doubt disrupt in the years to come.

Strengths

There is no lack of goalscorers in this France team. Alongside Mbappe, veteran pickets like Karim Benzema and Antoine Griezmann give this lateral no shortage of players capable of stepping up in the last third. Age is also on Les Bleus’ side going into Qatar, with a perfect mixture of youth and knowledge set to take the pitch. 

Weaknesses
