I was hoping for more posters to elaborate on the MVP selection. A simple equation might elucidate a better idea. Griezmann had 3 direct assists,...
I meant to say that both players have not been so dominant in international games as they have been in their leagues. They thrive against slightly...
Dayot Upamecano and Basile Boli Both French centerbacks. Both physical forces of nature. Both under Didier Deschamps command. Could Boli be the...
I'm not convinced about this analysis. The (obvious) counter pressing strategy would have been to hit longballs towards Giroud and have Mbappé...
It confused me because of this near half-time incident, where Juranovic #22 doesn't stop Alverez' goal. [MEDIA]
Do you mean the Livakovic/Alvarez incident?
The final XI GK - Livakovic (Martinez honorable mention) RB - Hakimi RCB - Castelletto LCB - Konaté LB - Hernandez LCM - Mac Allister...
Mbappé and Thierry Henry Both fast attackers from the left, with a reasonable left foot. Arguably, the alltime best players of their leagues (in...
To your credit, both Silva and Stones have been the most solid defenders when put under pressure. Their pass completion has been about 94% and 96%...
Update after the semi-finals GK - Livakovic (Martinez or even Lloris could surpass with a big performance) RB - Hakimi (lock) RCB - Castelletto...
Your theory/point still stands. Today that was not a penalty either. The VAR team really seems to have put itself above the law. Also the...
I agree on Griezmann being the best performer. The only match he wasn't clutch was the easy one vs Poland. That was where Mbappé took full...
In hindsight, Tchouameni did foul Saka, causing a penalty. So then it's Saka or Gakpo instead of him, although both Messi and Fernandes outcompete...
GK - Livakovic RB - Hakimi RCB - Castelletto LCB - Gvardiol LB - Hernandez LCM - Rabiot CM - Tchouameni RCM - Ounahi AM - Fernandes AM -...
I don't doubt your sense of justice. From your post I got to understand that the right to feature for the Netherlands is like a sacred right...
I was thinking the same thing, except for the burning part. A lot of their game today reminds me of Dutch street soccer. But speaking of burning,...
Since Messi has been sprinting like his younger self (vitamin Z), he can play on the right; GK - Livakovic RB - Hakimi RCB - Castelletto LIB - De...
I personally think that poltics are annoying and inefficient. But I recall that back in the day the Suriprofs had their annual getogether and it...
[ATTACH] Here's something to help this orange fever: [IMG] DUMFRIES, THE NEW THURAM!
v Gaal has a history of adding influential (ex)players onto his staff. His initial team-up with Rijkaard may have been the first hit of a drug...
I personally though that citizen Kane had more of an impact from the right. But I felt odd picking such a slow player for that position. I...
I'm pretty much agreed with all the above. But to keep the discussion alive, I'll try to pick just eleven. Morata, Hernandez, Saka and Zimmermann...
Blind is a mirror-image of his dad. They're both underrated centers but not sidebacks. If van Gaal doesn't fix the leaks on the flanks, especially...
Now i'm pretty clueless about the best gk so far. Alba and Hakimi look good for the sidebacks. Abdi is still there but Al-Shahrani is out of the...
I think I misstyped Griezmann for the midfield. You mention him aswell. Lozano and the Spanish players are on the radar. Maybe with the upcoming...
