This guy gets it. Lots of good posts from him. Bellingham is even being criticised online for his arrogance. "As I have said before, he’s so far up his own arse he can barely run, much less play actual football most of the time now, which was shown tonight. “Who else?” What a twat. He has...

Ah right, sorry, I didn't follow the entire thread or the conversation before it.

It's Sunday 14th July.

Love to see you quote where I said he's playing better than any of those four. Another guy making up straw men to try and strengthen his already flimsy point. He didn't play excellently or anything, and he lost the ball a few times, but overall he played his part and was fine. He was likely...

Was really hoping he would score and make history - chances will likely be more of a premium against Germany, so if he gets an opening he has to try and take it. A couple went just by the post today, or were saved. That cross was amazing though, and from there, Spain never looked back.

Thanks, and yeah maybe those three are close too. But I just feel nobody has the cohesion and synergy Spain does. It's a remnant from the Barca days - they've taken that philosophy and it has never left them, long after Xavi, Iniesta etc have departed.

Carrying an injury and actually did fairly well when he was on, but only Morata is worse than him. And, for that matter, Morata pressed really well in the second half and contributed to Spain being able to be so dominant. You're right about Olmo though, but that's all you're right about. Edit -...

Absolutely loved that little bit of skill and finish.

They did win easily. Georgia took a shock lead and had a few moments but Spain were in control from start to finish :ROFLMAO:

They're a serious team, really impressive. The pressing, the way they squeeze the space and smother the other team. The little triangles and combinations in midfield, how well drilled they are. They look like the only team in international football who play like a well-oiled club side. And now...

Shut up you embarrassing reprobate. You get kicked all over here every day like Brazil did against Germany in 2014.

He's doing very well. Could be in line for a world record transfer.

Rodri is a proper footballer. Controls games, great technician, good at closing off passing lanes and defensively sound, and can pop up with a goal at times. Best midfielder in the world.

To be fair they said that before this game - 'Slovenia is a wake up call' - didn't happen. Yes they have game changers but you cannot rely on that all of the time. Sometimes a cohesive system beats moments. Switzerland are a much more drilled team than England.

It's nice to see underdogs do well, but not sure if I want Georgia going through here. I am intrigued to see Spain-Germany, rather than watch Georgia try to Greece their way to the final (understandable given how small a football nation they are)

I am not dismissing them - I am saying Bellingham isn't gonna dig them out of a hole three games in a row (four if you include this). For them to win it, they need to play MUCH better than they did today, rather than rely on someone getting them out of a hole constantly. Play like that every...

And Temptation rates him so highly, because he's a superstar off the pitch. He's a celebrity chaser who loves 'superstars' with big media profiles eg Beckham, Bellingham, Ronaldo, Grealish.

'Clutch' is one of the most cringeworthy Americanisms ever to infect football. and it's never gonna happen - he won't do it game after game if they're this shite.

I am not a Barcelona fan. How is he great? He was invisible the entire CL knockout round, and was woeful this entire game before one wonder goal If he plays like that the next game it's highly unlikely he will do that again at the end. He's a good player, he will never be an all-time great,

It's not that people don't rate him - he's clearly a good player - to a point. It's that people don't buy the insane PR hype surrounding him indicating he's gonna be one of the best players of all time. He runs around a lot and does the spectacular now and then, so he's easy to rate for guys...
