  1. Iling Junior is a winger who has played wing back in a 5 man midfield. Definitely wouldn't say he's a left back.
  2. I don't think it's a foul. If anything defender runs into him and then momentum carries him. Just sloppy defending IMO.
  3. Chance they might not be able to TBF. Any country that size is going to go through peaks and troughs. Every chance they go the way of a Czech Republic.
  4. Fair play to Ronaldo for still keeping himself in shape but a low block defending him up top at 40 doesn't half make for a boring watch.
  5. Still can't believe how much PSG paid for Kolo Muani last summer.
  6. Midfield is a bit meh I think, I am doubtful Kante still has it.
  7. Wouldn't be surprised if Trubin is in nets next game.
  8. I don't understand why if you were Ukraine you would have Zinchenko at left back rather than midfield. Especially when you have Mykolenko who is OK.
  9. Love some of the journeymen you get at tournaments. Stanciu has won league titles in Romania, Belgium, Czech Republic and China. Now playing in Saudi.
  10. One of my all time favourite players, great to see him back amongst it.
  11. Yeah don't disagree, more noting the difference in perspective. He's going to Inter on a free this summer fwiw.
  12. Maybe I'm just a saddo who watches too much football but I do find posts like this funny as if he's an unknown youngster, rather than a near 100 cap veteran with 350 games for Napoli. Admittedly Poland have usually stink out tournaments when they get there.
  13. Scamacca is doing pretty well but he needs to start offering more goal threat at international level.
  14. Good ball striking ability but would say he was solid on the ball rather than a ball playing defender as such. Outstanding at everything else basically though when it comes to defending.
  15. Italy had Chiellini and Bonucci for so long that they were basically from a different era of football. Bastoni and Calafiori are actually much better on the ball than either of them, like modern CBs. Not saying they're as good as actual defenders - but it's such an interesting contrast.
  16. The very good Greece Euro 2004 documentary is on iPlayer. I know they were rightly a divisive side (documentary covers this a bit) but it's a very good watch.
  17. You not thinking is his brother Hakin? Murat was a lumbering defender.
  18. Aye fair point. Still think it doesn't change the point though.
  19. 3. Didn't leave Hampden and only allowed 25% in TBF. Can see why this feels more like they've actually gone to a tournament.
  20. More like 200k, but yeah, prohibitively high wages.
  21. He's got 2 years left. If he gets offered a 4 year deal or a lucrative 2-3 year in Saudi then it would be surprising if he didn't go, tbh.
  22. I get the impression he's our number one target this season. Just can't see it happening given the other teams involved.
