Pal does love to discuss diving/refereeing like. Always there to let us know if it was a free kick/penalty or not.

You're just worried about your FF position.. Mexico have been outstanding and are better at the old 5-3-2 than your lot, but you obviously have a pair of world class players up front when they definitely do not. It's their wing-backs/wider central midfielders that could win it for them, which is where they're stronger. Back threes much of a muchness with slight edge to them, maybe? It should be mint either way. Cue 0-0 borefest.

If he's out they don't have much of a chance IMO. He's not going to be out, he's no doubt, it's just mind games. He's got a swollen thigh. For all the diving people talk about Neymar he's been standing on his feet quite well this tournament which has resulted in plenty of naughty challenges. The one by Aranguiz early in the game which caused the injury deserved a yellow. People said the same about Spain last World Cup. Beat Portugal 1-0, almost went out to Paraguay before showing up in the semi-finals. People don't give credit where it's due. For all the praise Chile gets, Julio Cesar made ONE (!!) save all game. We're playing extremely poor, but advancing which gives us time to make it right. We've played decent and organized teams, which all put that extra shift in to be the team to beat the hometeam. I'm not defending this team fwiw, there's no defending for the showing we've put on. Only Neymar, David Luiz, Luiz Gustavo and Julio Cesar gets praise from me for the World Cup this far, but we've conceded 3 goals, all from mistakes, none of them were normal goals which tells me if we cut the mistakes out we shouldn't even draw the game. Just rewatching last night's game again now and Brazil were actually much better than I gave credit to them for live. The pressure from Chile is relentless until perhaps the last fifteen minutes of normal time, but Brazil matched them for intensity and had much the better chances.

Dunno if anyone who isn't just a WUM actually believes that, tbf.

Tipping Mexico to go through btw (though Vazquez will be a miss, replaced by Salcido) - and not just to rile Unbelievable

This Netherlands/Mexico game should be class. Not sure on Costa Rica/Greece but would love the former to smash them up.

When you're at the top you have to be a dick. Makes it all the sweeter for everyone else when you get overhauled -

You've got 2 players on me, though. That will soon shrink again. I'll be taking Fernandinho out as well, so that's -5 to make up straight away. -

Pwah, Holland keep a clean sheet tomorrow and I'll be laughing. (Way to jinx your team ) Ospina made shedloads of saves as well though, which was a nice bonus. 13 points! -
Aguilar was brilliant again. Who even is he?
