I always had my doubts going into this match, and it's not much of a surprise that we are losing.
This is just a friendly and a exhibition match to flaunt the new talent that is on offer. We cannot expect the likes of Carroll, Henderson and Gibbs to put on performances like Lampard, Rooney and Ashley Cole.
France may have come back from a terribly controversial World Cup, but they certainly have not got a shortage in talent, and it has been shown in Benzema and Valbuena's goals. France's midfield has been compact, yet creative and are justifying why they are still a top international side.
Yes, we may be sinking into yet another defeat to the French, having not beaten them for more than 10 years, but it will matter most when we play our best side. If we play them in Euro 2012, then I will start to have concerns.
EDIT-
Okay, 2-1. There's still time for either side to score.
