Old man Mandzukic still walks into this side

If anything, it'll get even worse, when the eye of the world isn't looking at them that closely anymore

Croatia much more defensively liable than I remember them being

Morocco will be a tough nut to crack but I'll still back Croatia to win this. 0-1 and a borefest incoming

Your ability to make everything about England never ceases to amaze me... Not you personally, Synth, the whole lot.

I'd trust Vlahovic and Tadic do to well against that defense but that attack is freaking scary...

It's the same thing basically, I'm not sure why are people getting so upset over it.

Gold in his weight for that goalkeeper

Oh, he's conscious... Good for the lad

Bloody hell, that's nasty

He did won AFCON with Zambia later on. And Ivory Coast. Helluva redemption arc...

Saudi's manager used to manage Cambridge Utd twenty years ago

How the heck is De Paul still on the pitch

Goddammit

Same here

Also consider the fact that they've got their early goal. And that they're old. They won't be pushing it to score six or seven, they can afford it to **** around a bit...

If Saudis has had half a decent attacker, Argentina would be in trouble

Didn't say he was perfect... You know it better than me for sure, did he actually support the regime? From what I remember, he liked revolutionary figures, Che and Castro among others. Tifo painted a flattering picture of Socrates in their video on the man https://youtu.be/_NLME8esE9w

Yes, it was a different time but Socrates risked his life protesting against military rule in Brazil. And surprise, surprise, it took among his peers and caused **** to change. This sorry bunch won't even risk a bloody yellow card for their "convictions"...

This ref's annoying me.

In here too... Welshmen sang it like the Italians

Eriksen said Kjaer will be wearing it, screw the consequences. I guess Kane can do it too, if he wants...

Always a good idea to pick up bunch of young, English talent. One decent half season and you'll have clubs kicking your doors in, showering you with silly money.
