The_jagster Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Just now, Astafjevs said: There's definitely something up with France. Maybe a few more are ill than they're letting on. Giroud definitely wasn't fully fit because you wouldn't take him off otherwise at 33 mins. Not when they have two small central defenders I think we'll be hearing a lot about a bout of flu in the days to come. Don't know what France are playing at. They aren't merely passive, just standing around giving a nothing pass eventually and then Argentina actually put an effort in to scrap for the ball. Theo has been one of the worst for this aside from Dembele. France have quite a few players who can carry the ball and have done none of that this half.

Proper narrative reaching nonsense German's defense looked like a FIFA gamer set it up, ridiculously bad. Then he starts switching their positions after one match. And playing Muller at #9 as if it's written in constitution. Brazil lacked balance in midfield and would lose to Argentina, much like they did in Copa final. 4-1-5 football from 70s. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prefer Drury to a lot of commentators but he really is way way overboard a lot of the time.

Light touch and dive = penalty, sorry. French are killing themselves. At what point did they even threaten to score or put any pressure on the Arg defense? France play for the counter. I find it rather sweet that they ran into one. Didier better come up with another plan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Di Maria is the definition of big game performer, delivered in every final he played, both club and NT. There's no way Saka gets awarded the penalty Di Maria won - that's the bigger difference than anything else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
