    Gerard Piqué

    What are you on about? Not everyone in Spain is a Spaniard. Catalonia may not be a sovereign state, but Catalan ethnicity is valid and recognized.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    It would truly be a shame if his NT career ended so abruptly and so scandalously after a tournament as irrelevant as the CA Centenario. Besides, he's only 29. No reason for him to retire.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    People forget that losing a final means winning the silver medal. Silver medal > everything else except gold Yet the players who don't win medals at all don't get criticized. Imagine if you were watching alpine skiing and your country's skier wins 2nd place, climbs the pedestal and receives...

    Croatia

    Long story made short: Čačić is not a star coach in these parts. A few years ago, he was appointed coach of Dinamo Zagreb, an underwhelming choice, had a short unsuccessful spell and was sacked as "a bad coach". A few years later, he's appointed NT coach by the same guy who appointed and sacked...

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    Somehow Messi is the failure for reaching finals and not winning, and Cristiano is the goddamn messiah for not ever even beginning to accomplish anything with Portugal, and therefore not disappointing anyone after raising expectations. What absolute horseshit.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    The level of misunderstanding and just pure unfounded criticism of Messi's NT career is astounding. Yes, he missed a penalty last night and that's absolutely his responsibility. BUT. It's amazing how extreme the double standards have become with Messi. People see him and Argentina reaching three...

    Croatia

    Even with our exit, I'm still very proud and happy with our NT as a whole this Euro. With the exception of yesterday's match, I don't remember us playing this well technically, with so much heart, discipline, and in phenomenal physical shape. We looked like one of the powerhouses. Much to be...

    Croatia

    The whole team played badly compared to their previous performances, so it's not fair to single anyone out, but truth be told - Mandžukić is worthless. We might as well have played with 10.

    Cristiano Ronaldo - v1

    Strange that we couldn't beat Portugal since Cristiano wasn't playing.

    Croatia

    It would motivate him more if he wasn't back in the starting 11 by default. I'm not a big fan of neither of them, but so far Mandžukić has been very underwhelming. You'd expect more of your main center forward, and rightly so.

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    Wtf happened? I know there were some travel problems with the AFA, but other than that?

    Croatia

    Of course I want Croatia to advance, in general, but I would also love to see that spoiled brat's fake tanned face when he drops out of the tournament after zero wins. Especially at the hands of our own boys. :)

    Barça's Transfers and Rumors

    Now that Alves is gone, we can finally stop subduing Alba and reverse the former Alves-Abidal roles. Let Alba attack more, and use the RB more conservatively.

    Sergio Ramos

    Yes, he stepped out way too early (and the players rushed before Ramos hit the ball) but I think the ref turned a blind eye because he might have made the wrong decision to call the penalty in the first place, especially after not calling one on Pjaca only moments earlier.

    Croatia

    Yes, the entire team is fit, it was confirmed to the media after today's training.

    I'm still not sure where I'll be watching, but my girlfriend will be in Lisbon, of all places. :lol:

    10 - Lionel Messi - v4

    Probably his best free kick to date. Just phenomenal. :wub:

    Cristiano Ronaldo - v1

    That gif will be around for ages. Might even overtake the injustiça. What a spoiled fucking brat. Most four-year-olds I know would behave more appropriately.

    Croatia

    Our attack is so much better without Mandžukić, I hope Čačić saw that.
