Most definitely, likely winners. Strong in every department, resilient, skillful, outstanding individuals. A collective team, well coached and such flair, scary if we have to play them with our defence!.
Likely winners indeed. However they are French, and as such they have a couple of potential achilles heels.
The biggest one is arrogance. Fair play, they've got a lot to be arrogant about but with that can come the belief they've won it already and a drop in intensity then lets a less pedigree dog bite them.
The lesser one is losing their heads, Zidane in the final v Italy being the prime example.
They've yet to be properly tested. If/when they do the possibility if those twin potential weaknesses will come into play.

France, even if you removed Mbappe, are so much better than anyone else at this tournament.
Their movement, their creativity. It's so, so impressive.
I've never seen a tournament where the eventual winners are so clear cut.

I just remember them being miles better than anyone else. I'm getting on a bit now mind!
On paper they were brilliant, unbeatable, but they lost to Switzerland in the group stages and squeaked two 1-0 winsI just remember them being miles better than anyone else. I'm getting on a bit now mind!
