khay Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Griezmann wearing a shirt with 2 stars on which they obviously had made before they won it. Arrogant French underestimating Croatia!! Looks like a half moon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Lad at work who organised the sweepstake won it with France. Been getting pelters all day from other staff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 The boss won it here. I've asked the person organising it not to hand out the money until the boss himself asks for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I won mine at work but grossly miscalculated the winnings. It turns out it was £1 per team, not £2, there were 2 teams unallocated, and there's a £5 for second and for last. So the £64 I thought I'd won is actually £20 and I spent a fiver trying to get a decent team in the first place. Still happy like, I never win these things.

Infinitely Content Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Did everyone get a song, or are they rightly giving recognition to the best player on their team? Really hope he stays in England, but a Barcelona would be mental not to go after him, wins you titles this lad, he's proved that 100%. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely Content Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Other than the CB's, in which I'd have Varane & Umtiti, I thought the Guardian's was spot on - subs as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I know it was slim pickings for a choice at LB, but Ashley Young wasn't even anywhere near being one of England's better players. In fact he was arguably the player that most England fans wanted to have replaced. Lovren, Paulinho, and Neymar as well. Fucking hell, proper joke.

Not a single England player in there is daft like. I could understand if Meunier snuck in ahead of Trippier, but that Croatian rat at RB shouldn't be ahead of either. Him and Vida are in there because they made the final and nothing more imo, two of Varane and Godin or Umtiti is the only acceptable pairing really.

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I would have Mario Fernandes at right back and Cherysev as the #10 ahead of Greizmann, who I thought was one of the bigger underperformers for France, tbh. Subasic is the easy pick for best keeper, as he won two shootouts, but I don't recall a single great save he made all tournament. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subasic is the easy pick for best keeper, as he won two shootouts, but I don't recall a single great save he made all tournament. Subasic might as well have taken his crutches onto the field with him in the final. Not testing him more from distance was a big mistake by England.

Vrsaljko had a great tournament, better than Trippier in open play. More than an acceptable pick at RB. Agree with CBs. CBs have to be Silva and Godin. Both were freaking excellent all tournament. The French and Croatian CBs did well due to the collective but were nowhere near as dominant as the other two individually. They're also the only two I'd have in the team who didn't make the semi-finals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 L'Equipe's team seems fair enough to me. Godin and maybe Kante a bit unlucky. Also love how l'Equipe start with 5 as an average rating and work from there rather than average being 7 like most papers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Their rating system is stupid. There's no point in a rating system of 1-10 if you never give players a high score. The whole team is rated slightly above average. Nonsense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
