I’ve got them advancing out of the group; however, in my brackets, I’ve picked them tied with S. Korea on points. (I’ve actually got France going out as the 1st place team on goal difference.)

Even though I’ve got them winning Group G, I call them a disappointment because with the talent that they have, they should be contenders to win it all. As it is, I have them losing in the 1/4-finals.

Part of the problem, for me, is that the French are loaded with individual talent, but they seem to play as individuals too much.

Of course, during thier great run in ‘98 and 2000, they had the team mentality to match their talent. However, I just don’t see it anymore.

This is a perfect group for S. Korea, who can (somewhat) shock everyone. Good luck.
