What was our reason not to buy this from Everton?

Because at club level, he doesn't care anywhere near as much. He's been sh*t for Tottenham.

Korea are being shred to pieces. 

"Silva is too old and slow to play in a back 4".........utter bollocks.

The red card given to Tottenham Hotspur star Heung-min Son for his tackle during the match against Everton that led to a serious injury for Andre Gomes has been overturned. According to Bryan Swanson of Sky Sports, an independent panel has decided his dismissal was incorrect, and he will not be suspended for the team's next three domestic matches.

 

never forget: Son was chasing Gomes all over the pitch after some sparks between them

Brazil's midfield didn't allow their defence to get exposed unlike our midfield. Our players especially under Potter have no idea what role and formation they are expected to play. One thing about Brazil is how well they were playing as a TEAM. They looked a proper team with each player having clearly defined role and responsibility, sadly we don't have that.

I don't fancy watching Brazil v Argentina SF. Cheating, diving, roll around, clutching the wrong body part, surrounding the ref, bench players invading the pitch, they are true masters of the dark sh*t.

Holland 1 - 1 Argentina (Holland on pens)

Croatia 2 - 1 Brazil (aet)

England 4 - 3 France 

Spain 1 - 2 Switzerland

Amrabat reminds me of Jorginho. Very good at finding space and has the technical ability to lead a transition under a press.

Amrabat is the one player on the pitch that least reminds me of Jorginho!!!

Strong, physical, flies into tackles, runs forwards with the ball, looks decent in the air.

The only similarity I can see with Jorginho is they both wear shorts.

I'm speechless @axman2526 I can only imagine @coco is performing an elaborate and cunning counterjinx. If not, I'll clutch some wrong bodypart of his 

How can I support Spain (or Azpi rather) when they're playing in the Man City kit? Ziyech has the edge now.

Morocco have their own version of Lukaku as their striker.

Seems Ziyech wants to be the first taker for Morocco. I don't always fancy him, but when given the keys he's always up to it. Will be rooting for him and Morocco to come through. 

Another dreadful penalty.

Edit: and another. And another.

Just don't put that Chedira guy to take one... Please

Lol Spain....it was indeed a masterstroke to lose in the group game and possibly avoid Brazil in the quarters.

Spain out. I've only seen part of the match, so I can't say anything about who deserved it or not, but those penalties were not exactly convincing.

Hahaha Spain! Truly diabolical penalties from those patatas bravas eating bastards

Morocco deservedly through  

What is it with this "modern" technique of slowly walking up to the spot, or doing a hop, skip and jump, and then side footing it at 3mph.

It was better in the old days. Run at the ball full pelt from at least 10 yards, and leather it as hard as you possibly can.

Rick's bar is gonna be packed tonight

Spain were toothless. How the f**k did Gavi and Pedri win young player of the year in the past 2 years? Has to be Barcelona bias, because if they played for Valencia, Villareal or Bilbao, nobody would care about them.
