Imagine if they get a good offer, accept it and then he goes on to never get injured again and develop into the player he should become.

Only one plays for Spain. Our only creative CM also plays for Spain. Hope Thiago gets the armband back. He's a leader and tried his best tonight again. Only one that I'd give a passing grade to.

As if the second completely undeserved booking of the tournament didn't p*ss him off a bit. So what if it did. He's meant to be the responsible captain now. Not petulant child when things don't go his way edit: Just seen his headbutt at the end What a mug. Bacca being discreet with the shove too Agree regarding the captain bit, but he isn't captain because of that. That armband represents something else because he's never a captain in a milion years. I'm worried about the qualifiers to Russia because SA refs really have it in for him.

Headbutt, straight red meaning two game suspension. Here's to hoping we finish 2nd in our group and somehow play Bolivia in the quarters

Neymar sent off after the whistle and Bacca as well. Wonder what this will mean in terms of suspension...
-
Don't know why Brazilian players fell into their provocation. They won fair and square. Murillo and Bacca's stuff were unnecessary but be the bigger men and just step away from it.
-
Luiz Gustavo is our midfield. Hes really underrated. But we shouldn't depend on one for a nation of 200millions.
-
Wow. Glad he didnt do his signature no looker.
-
Gullit and Angel in the beIN sport studio saying Neymars name kept him from getting sent off as if his name isn't the reason to why he got booked. Idiots.
-
Colombia dominating after the goal. Been really great to see them play at this tempo again, they really haven't since the WC. Cuadrado when used right is a very good footballer. Still don't know what Falcao is doing there though
-
For once I actually support this kind of behaviour. Treatment Neymar gets in South America is ridiculous. He gets yellow cards because of his image and not because of his actions. Look at that yellow and look at the game before. Never yellow cards.
-
This ref is so fucking bad. Neymar banned for last match now. Guy has gotten two yellows because sa refs dont like him.
-
The captains fighting over worst performance of the half
-
How is that deserved? Been absolute s**** this. Both teams should be sent home. They've been less s*** and were pressing for a goal more. It's been aberration generally given the talent on the pitch. Brazil has controlled possession while they've sat back. Been no chances all game from both sides.

Only once tonight tbf to him. But yeah hes a genius at getting away with it.
-
Don't be so sure. He comes from Argentina. A country known for it's racism. But yeah, Cambiasso seems like a gentleman
-
Brazil changes, TSilva in for David Luiz and Firmino in for Tardelli. Great changes imo. Wanted Fred for Douglas Costa as well, but I guess Fred has really impressed in training and just had a bad game against Chile. Loving these changes from Dunga, especially reinstating Thiago Silva back in after having a great spring for PSG and David being pretty poor against Peru.

Brazil v Colombia in two hours

I think a lot of the people saying he's overrated or inconsistent are forgetting he's 20 years old. Inconsistency is standard for a player of that age. I'm more interested in his moments of brilliance and his high points, which, so far, have been higher and more frequent than any other 20-year-old in world football. The only comparable player is José Gayá. Obviously that means that he could be one of the best players in the world. He's already been (by quite some distance) the best player for a major footballing nation in a World Cup, as a teenager. He's also been poorly handled by Liverpool, but more as a symptom of how poorly Liverpool have handled losing Suárez; effectively piling a lot of the responsibility for goal and chance creation on him. I think it's legitimate for him to worry about Liverpool's ability to compete, but I also think Man City would be the wrong choice. To fulfil his potential, he needs a team with a more stable and consistent tradition of competing, a playing identity, a better manager and intelligent, disciplined and talented teammates. Basically one of Europe's actual top teams: Bayern, Barcelona, Real Madrid. It'd be a massive waste otherwise. Hakan Calhanoglu at Bayer has had two fantastic season both for club and national team and is rumoured to be valued at half of that and isn't at last year of contract.
