Not individual brilliance but a great team goal with 21 passes which would break down on the 7th or 8th pass on a good day for Cafc was the 21 pass move by the Netherlands with Depay scoring. Never been snobby about goals and an assist by a keeper is fine; don't mean OG !
Luis Enrique gone from the Spain national team set-up after back to back round of 16 exits on penalties.
Yeah not sure how surprised I should be, given Spain are a mixture of a very young team (Gabi | Pedro | Fati), combined with players that are entering the end of theirs (Alba | Biscuits) - Notice too that Germany, who had a worse Tournament, have decided to stick with Hansi Flick.
Even if their Nations League performance wasnt much either...
aww shucks, thanks awfully thing is, I have not one penny on the double .. or the single for that matter .. Portugal seem to have come good at the right time .. and their manager is one of the most experienced and shrewdest out there AND he has a core of VERY good players
I on the other hand did double down on my own poor acumen…
never knew a winner who didn't bet .. next time !!!
Only personally known three people to be in the money through betting. Not saying there aren’t others but bookies are the main winners from betting.
Spain massively underachieved with that squad. Something wrong when you can't convert that amount of possession and general dominance into actual shots
Brazil aren't gonna be beating everyone 6-0 that's for sure. This is the business end of the tournament, and honestly I think the closest group of teams we have had in the quarters for many a year. Things have closed up at the top of international football.

Brazil lost in the QF 4 years ago, Croatia made the final. They are very good at grinding out wins when it matters

Yeh they are wise
Mo Salah and de bruyne left Chelsea and...

Samba, Capoeira and even a chance of a Lundu for the South Americans and can only imagine a clog dance for the Dutch.
The media:
This appears to be the happiest England squad in living memory. How can we screw that up the day before a mega quarter final.
Argentina | Croatia | England | Morocco?
Anyone but them!
