    10 - Lamine Yamal

    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.

    Spain

    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.

    8 - Pedri

    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 -...

    Nico Williams

    Absolutely loved that little bit of skill and finish.

    Euro 2024

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

    Spain

    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...

    Euro 2024

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

    0 - Own Goal

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

    Euro 2024

    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.

    Jude Bellingham

    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.

    Euro 2024

    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)

    Jude Bellingham

    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...

    Jude Bellingham

    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.

    Jude Bellingham

    '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.

    Jude Bellingham

    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,

    Jude Bellingham

    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...

    Jude Bellingham

    Imagine bumping this thread after that performance - all because of a once in a lifetime overhead kick he will never repeat. Some people just don't play the game and never have. You should get your arse kicked for a performance like that, him individually and the team collectively. No wonder...

    Euro 2024

    2-0 Spain. I don't wanna underestimate Georgia though.

    Euro 2024

    The guy is a dangerous concoction of clueless, reactionary, thick and aggressive.

    Euro 2024

    Gonna go watch the rest of this game. This guy is a clueless fuck with no tactical acumen whatsoever. No idea why he watches football given his hopeless takes.
