Euro 2014
France was eliminated in the quarter final by winner England, by 1-0.
Only five of the national team players are playing for French teams, while the rest are at top clubs around Europe.
France reached the final to lose in 2012, to winners Germany and appear to have lost momentum going forward.
The players are quite experienced and the team will have to let some younger prospects play more and gain more experience on national level.
France is a serious contender for the later stages of the European Championship.
