Silva really needs to work on his goal scoring, his shots don't even go on goal anymore. I know it's too late for him now, but for somebody with so much ball control he has horrbile shots in his foot.
Hard to believe that two years ago they couldn't pull off play like this at the WC. Need to keep the momentum going against Croatia. Good to see that VDB realized that with Costa the team was dysfunctional and now that he is gone and Nolito and Morata are on target the panorama has changed for the better!!
I think it's too soon to say Morata and Nolito are working, hardly saw either of them last game. But that Morata (or any striker we would field) couldn't do much worse than Costa was too apparant. Next game will be a real match in the sense that Croatia is better than the other 2 teams we faced so far. However for us it won't really matter much anymore (and maybe we'll field the B team) so the true test will come in the 2nd round.
I don't know.. Nolito has been performing since he started playing a couple of months ago. Morata, is another story.
