30 & 31. Both have got 3-4 years as none of them are known for their speed. Look @ Thiago Silva - You can CBs playing into mid 30s & being...
Obispo has played a couple of games. Let him get half a season in. Timber is not a physical beast but his on the ball, positioning is potentially...
The Wingers were mediocre. Gakpo wasn't good. He should be a fiery young sub coming on the last 20-30 minutes pushing the starters. Berghius is a...
De Ligt made a rookie mistake & looked shaky in the 2nd game. De Vrij is just too slow to be a WC CB & also doesn't have the distributio ability....
Also post Goals/Minute. Most of Huntelaar's games or atleast quite a lot came as sub. RVP will be well behind Huntelaar & Kluivert & RVN in...
Malen is going to be a top class attacker. He will be better than Depay & Wijnaldum & probably better than RVP (who was a total flop IMO for...
Very good decision not to select Karsdorp. Dumfries is a starter & you can Rensch & maybe Timber. Why waste a spot on a 26 year old RB who hasn't...
Ake got selected because he is a back-up for LB in a 4 man Back-line. The other back-up LB is Blind who has no space. Gravenberch got selected...
CBs play well into their 30s if they can adjust their game to their falling pace (Not a highline type defense). Van Dijk is 30, best in the world...
Inter has a good backline - Skriniar, Bastoni, De Vrij & Dumfries (if he does well). Dzeko is nowhere near Lukaku. Eriksen is also out...
The selection is current except Pasveer. Karsdorp had his moment & flopped. He is 26, playing 4 games in Roma doesn't warrant him a selection....
Malen needs to go to a club where he will start day in & out for the next 2 years. He doesn't need to directly go to Liverpool & compete with...
The criticism on Depay is justified. Look @ how bad his free-kicks & corners were. Why does he take them all? His layoffs were atrocious &...
My assessment - Stekelenburg - Fumbled an easy ball. Was out of position for the 1st goal (if you go to catch the ball, you better catch it). Got...
Italy produced many top defenders but currently many teams have many central midfielders & couple it with a 3 man backline & the CB gets all the...
I have different views to others. I thought De Ligt was very good in Half 2 & bad in Half 1 when De Vrij was better. As a matter of fact, I...
Portugal have big issues. Their central mid-fielders can't play football. Carvalho & the other guy just recover balls & can make a sideway pass....
De Jong is under-rated & having him & a 3 CB line-up allows you a +10ish 8 in a 3 mid-field set-up. De Jong can easily play before the defense....
Yea but does Depay (your best attacker) do better in as the lead ST or some-one behind the ST? I would say #2. And you probably need 1 ST in this...
This is the most idiotic post I have seen in this forum. And the person who liked this post are equally stupid. I don't want to dignify this...
Defense is also very mediocre. Declan Rice is a typhical over-hyped person in midfield by the English Media & I don't like the defense (Atleast...
I called for the 3-5-2 or 5-3-2 formation before De Boer went for it. And it has to do with having mediocre attacking players. Depay should have...
BTW when it comes to the team - 1. Arjen Robben coming off 10 minutes to go isn't going to win the Trophy. The overall team will. I always...
Sneijder & Bergkamp are way way below Robben. Like a couple of tiers (& I love Sneijder). Bergkamp has done jack for the NT. Being an Ajax legend...
Cillesen can't save a penalty to save his life & will need to subbed off if it gets to that ! Depay is the natural choice possibly followed by...
