    I get our formation is dynamic, but Julian is positioned almost like an offensive wingback at times.

    Giuliano playing with way too much emotion and far too little brain

    Always been the risk with him. Maybe Nico was the play all along

    I am thinking the same thing... We can't risk anything that could get us into trouble...

    Messi is being marked and they need to get it out wide and spread the pitch plus those two troncos Molina and Simeone really need a kick up the backside. I'd get Barco on for Simeone and switch Julian over there.

    Yeah, but Molina is just the weak link... He's gonna cost us if this continues...

    Simeone needs to calm down. Wasted our corner opportunity with his stupid antics on Pickford.

    They've allowed themselves to get involved in a street fight instead of a footballing match. Control the ball and start playing against their weaknesses Spence, Stones and James in defence.

    Physically England will tire they have the advantage right now but it will even out.
    They offer very little creativity they will just wait for a gap to run into and cut back.

    Julian was very close. I hope Scaloni has made changes in the set up and told the players what he needs.

    Scaloni is partly to blame. Simeone should have gotten some minutes at KO stage leading up to his game, instead just throw him in all of sudden at semifinal.

    I ain't gonna blame Simeone, he's been thrown into the semi final of a world cup, obviously he's gonna be pumped. Just needs to calm himself down.

    Barco is the only our young player who plays like seasoned veteran. Paz is good but can also looked anxious at times. Simeone is being Simeone.
