Let me start: Champion: France. Reason: I think France is the team with the greatest chances of winning the title this time. Goalkeeper: Lloris (Tottenham), Mandanda (Marseille), Areola (Paris Saint-Germain); Defenders: Varane (Real Madrid), Umtiti (Barcelona), Mendy (Manchester City), Kimpembe (Paris Saint-Germain), Sidibé (Monaco), Hernández (Atletico Madrid), Ramírez (Marseille), Pavard (Stuttgart); Midfielders: Pogba (Manchester United), Kanté (Chelsea), Matuidi (Juventus), Tolisso (Bayern Munich), N’Zonzi (Sevilla); Forwards: Griezmann (Atletico Madrid), Giroud (Chelsea), Mbappé (Paris Saint-Germain), Dembélé (Barcelona), Fekir (Lyon), Lemar (Monaco), Tuanzebe (Marseille). The defensive pair of Varane and Umtiti, along with the center-backs, are young, but both Real Madrid and Barcelona are aware of their capabilities. The midfielders KDB, Kanté, and Matuidi are all world-class; KDB has excellent physical qualities, while Kanté boasts top-notch decision-making skills. As for the forwards, Griezmann, Mbappé, and Giroud – two fast wingers combined with a tall striker make an ideal combination.
