    Here's the list of 23 players called up for France's two final matches of 2016 versus Sweden(World Cup qualifier) and the Ivory Coast(friendly).

    FRANCE SQUAD - IN FULL
    Goalkeepers: Hugo Lloris (Tottenham), Steve Mandanda (Crystal Palace), Alphonse Areola (Paris St Germain).

    Defenders: Sebastien Corchia (Lille), Lucas Digne (Barcelona), Laurent Koscielny (Arsenal), Layvin Kurzawa (Paris St Germain), Adil Rami (Sevilla), Raphael Varane (Real Madrid), Djibril Sidibe (Monaco), Samuel Umtiti (Barcelona).

    Midfielders: Adrien Rabiot (Paris St Germain), N'Golo Kante (Chelsea), Blaise Matuidi (Paris St Germain), Dimitri Payet (West Ham), Paul Pogba (Manchester United), Moussa Sissoko (Tottenham).

    Forwards: Kingsley Coman (Bayern Munich), Ousmane Dembele (Borussia Dortmund), Nabil Fekir (Lyon), Kevin Gameiro, (Atletico Madrid), Olivier Giroud (Arsenal), Antoine Griezmann (Atletico Madrid).



    Rami makes his first return to a post-Euro 2016 squad. I believe that this is the first time PSG's Adrien Rabiot has been called up to the full senior squad.

    Martial, Lacazette and Gignac out. Cant say without logic however.

    I'd love to see Lacazette given a run of games up front. We can do better than Giroud.

    Apparently, Pogba injured himself today while playing for United during their Europa League game against Fenerbahce. It seems he will be a doubt for Sunday's visit to Swansea. I really hope he doesn't have to drop out for Les Bleus.

    it's not like he's been tearing it up for either club or country.

    True, but Pogba is the sort of player who can produce something out of nothing at any given moment. He is a nice ace to have up one's sleeve.

    Another poor game, imo, from Pogba. Sure he scored the first goal, technically, but knew nothing about it. Should have been credited to Varane. And Sidibe also very poor.

    I know that his international career is very much in its infancy, but Sidibe looks lost at this level. With better finishing, France could have won more comfortably. Still, I will take the 3 points.
