Love the African sides, would be great to see Senegal or Nigeria progress. The former looked quite decent in their opening match like. Nigeria with Mikel at DM looked much, much better too.

Really good half of football, Tadic & Mitrovic superb.

I do hope so. And I also hope they quit playing dross like that Acuna lad amongst many others. I could understand leaving Higuian, Dybala and the likes on the bench if you had a system that was working, but they've been shocking so might as well play a simple system and get the danger men on the pitch. They looked much better with Pavon & Dybala yesterday. They made no difference like, that was their worst part of the game. IMO they need to get a 4 man back four with full backs playing as full backs in their best positions. Mascherano, Di Maria and some shit cunt in midfield and Messi behind Aguero and Higuain Aye? I thought Argentina looked more likely when Dybala & Pavon were on like. Must have seen in differently to yourself. They still created fuck all and that was when the game was over Fair play. I agree with the rest of your comment like. That set up or similar is certainly what they need on yesterday's evidence particularly.

i think it's been an average WC at absolute best with a few games that have elevated it in people's minds to being better than it is por-esp ger-mex peru games have been enjoyable and a few others dotted about arg - cro good for the croatian performance and unbelievable shitness of the argies there's been as much dross as there has quality basically Aye, don't get me wrong I've enjoyed the fact there's so much football to watch, but thus far, and after the dust settles, I will only really remember the first two games you mentioned plus perhaps the Japanese v Colombia. Scraping the barrel a bit even then. At this rate I'm actually looking at England to reinstate a bit of quality, enjoyable to watch football. Who'd have said that a week or so ago?

The WC has gone a bit flat the past few days imo. At the beginning the stakes were tangible in the way the games were being approached, the past 5/6 games I've watched have been almost friendly-esque. And there's nowt worse than an international friendly There's only so much of the Icelandic brick wall and I can be entertained by - as unpopular an opinion that will be.

2-1 Argentina (Aguero, Messi - Rebic)

England

Commentary is bloody aaful.

All the attacking talent in the France squad and they play a DM at left wing *facepalm*. Deschamps is the French Pardew.

France formation probably wrong there like, doubt Matuidi will be left midfield. More likely to be 433 with Griezmann & Mbappe on either side of Giroud.

Enjoyed the game. I wonder by Kasper Dolberg can't get on the pitch for Denmark, 20 year old attacker and has been brilliant for Ajax at times. You would think he would offer a bit more than Braithwaite or Cornelius.

Can't be, the one-match player reviews concluded he was shit.

The guy's a hero in my eyes, a man of the people. A Watson should be from now on known as a Milad Mohammadi (yes I had to google the name). Carry the torch with pride, young man - you've earned this.

Wtf

I feel robbed.

I wonder how many minutes of actual football gets played in a match. I bet it's rarely 90, not just in this tournament either. The average 3 minute added time definitely doesn't account for the accumulation of every stoppage like.

He was offside like.

Yeah fair point, we were quite lucky with injuries to big players. Although maybe we're just fitter than years gone by because of proper coaching. I don't know. Either way we don't need to start pissing ourselves at every West Ham/Southampton rumoured signing just yet, we're in decent shape! We have much to be envied by the other teams imo

:lol: That's brilliant.

Because they have no idea what they're talking about (the papers).

Isco is the best player I've seen at this tournament so far like. Ridiculously good to watch.
