  1. Belgium look at their most threatening when Brazil get a corner.
  2. France looking very efficient & have been impressive in the 2 knockouts games they showed against Argentina what they can do it you go toe to toe with them & today they showed against a side that like to sit back that they can beat you in a different way.
  3. Neymar is so overrated, I really don't get the hype about him. I wouldn't even put him in the top 30 Brazilian players that I have seen.
  4. Surely the BBC have got to get rid of Lawrenson after this tournament the man is absolutely clueless.
  5. Still think we need two wingers, a centre forward, centre back and a right back. If we get that then I will be quite optimistic about the new season.
  6. Probably the best of business we will do this summer.
  7. Not know why Firmino doesn't start, Brazil look a much better team with him on and Jesus has been anonymous all tournament.
  8. How is that not a red card? He took him out from behind as he was about to roll the ball into an empty net.
  9. Colombia, Russia, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden and Croatia will all think the same. As Spain would have before today. Koke's penalty summed his performance up & for a top goal keeper De Gea is poor at saving penalties.
  10. Koke hasn't developed into the player he looked like he was going to a few years ago, Saul would be a better option for Spain.
  11. But Silva & Asensio are no stronger that Iniesta and neither are in his class as a footballer.
  12. Very rare that he gets the better of Godin. This world cup has highlighted that there is a shortage of top quality defenders however Godin is an exception as he is world class as he showed again tonight.
  13. Who'd have thought it Messi plays deeper behind a proper striker and is more affective
  14. Should have gone to a proper club in a competitive league instead of following the money in a one team league.
  15. Is Sampaoli for real bringing Meza on ahead of Dybala & Lo Celso. There's a reason that Meza is 26 and never played outside of Argentina & after the tournament he has had is never likely to.
  16. Not sure that Icardi would improve Argentina but the best player in Serie A last season certainly would. Dybala is the only other player in this squad close to Messi's level yet he has played 20 minutes all tournament.
  17. Otamendi is shocking Guardiola can buy all the stars he likes but he won't win the Champions League with Otamendi leading the defence.
  18. Unstoppable, goal of the tournament so far.
  19. If Argentina want to play with a false 9 then they should play Dybala.
  20. But Southgate rested players to give us an easier quarter final in order to get to the semi final. If he had played our strongest side last night we would have had a much better chance at beating a weakened Belgium team, which would have meant we would've topped the group and had an easier last 16 game against Japan instead he looked further ahead and now we have Colombia.
  21. Falcao is a different player now. When he was at United he had only just come back from an ACL and his time at Chelsea was blighted by injury. Now he is fit & has his confidence back he is not far of the Falcao of 2010-2013 although I don't think he will ever hit those heights again as he has lost a yard of pace. The only striker in the England squad better than him is Kane and at his peak Falcao was as good as him. And I would say Uruguay have turned up 3 wins from 3 no goals conceded from their rock solid defence and Suarez and Cavani both on the score sheet. At the moment they would be my favourites to win it.
  22. Huge risk taken by Southgate, yes if we get past Columbia then we have an easier game to get to the semi than if we had won last night. But now we have a harder get just to get to the quarter final. For me Southgate has needlessly put his job on the line against Columbia.
  23. Brazil have basically spent the last 20 minutes passing to Neymar so he can score, the problem is Neymar is not as good as he is hyped up to be and is not in the same class as Coutinho.
