It's not just about pace though - you can see the mind is still very sharp and working overtime, he's faster in his head than most people. And he's not slow when he starts running with the ball. It's more the longer recovery time from accumulation of injuries, and the time it takes to get back...

Yeah, I would rather see teams in their traditional kits when there is no clash for normal-sighted people personally. At the same time though, it's good to include others too, especially with something as easy as this (wearing different coloured kits). I still prefer the classic kits. I know...

Indeed.

He's an absolute cock while being a talented (albeit very overhyped) player. Hopefully the Spanish midfield dominate he, Foden, Rice and Mainoo (as I am thinking they will) and win this final.

I said this before, but as a winger, you don't want him getting much taller. He's about six foot now and just about to turn 17. You don't want him to grow too much more. His size seems to work for him; if he gets any bigger he might end up too tall for a winger. I am not saying he will end up...

Fair enough mate - I looked at the tool and it did seem some were more severe than others. As I read there's clearly different levels to it in terms of how it affects people. I guess it's hard for people with pretty bad types of colur blindness, but we still wanna preserve the tradition of the...

Yea I predicted 2-1 Colombia but was obviously a lower scoring game than that. Uruguay focus too much on the bruising people up part of football. To be fair to them, though, they did have chances especially in the firs half - if Nunez finishes then who knows. However, for the sake of the...

@Birdy after some research, are we being too harsh? I know you made some points earlier about different extremes of colour blindness, but it feels a bit like we are discriminating against them here. 1 in 12 men are colour blind because of recessive gene combinations (only 1 in 200 women...

Fucking mad bastards, all of them lol.

Other than terminology like 'all the Africans' I agree with you. They are more of an athletic team. Griezmann is clearly the brains and cerebral player while much of the rest of them are powerful athletes (though I find Kounde and Maignan intelligent players). I guess it does feed into...

I know it's been said many times before - but South Americans are absolutely mad :lol: There should have been about half an hour stoppage time. That was chaos. Suarez with a massive miss. Two glorious chances missed by Uribe too - the second one off Rochet and onto the bar was the worst. He...

He's a livewire and gets lots of chances with his pace and movement, but he can't finish most of them. Same story as at Liverpool.

@Birdy Kit lunacy in the Copa America now. Uruguay wearing their all white kit when they could easily wear blue shirts and black shorts and socks against Colombia's yellow shirts, blue shorts and red socks.

It's a crude analogy, but it's similar to advantage. With advantage, if you play on and no advantage happens in the first few seconds, another tug of the shirt or something, it is rightly pulled back for the initial foul. But if play on and lose the ball fairly or fuck it up, then rightly the...

Yeah it's not in the law but it probably should be. If the ball is gone the chance is gone. Though you could argue that Dumfries (with that whey believe is a foul) put Kane off for his initial shot. As for bold, it's always an awkward debate that, isn't it? Because of how much greater a penalty...

If England do win this I want them to do it by outplaying Spain in the final. Like I said earlier, it just won't feel right if Spain dominate, miss chances, and England spawn it. Happens a lot in football though so who knows.

2-1 Colombia I am gonna go for. Luis Diaz first goal. It should be a great contest.

Yeah you have a point there. Neville is one of the worst pundits know to man lol. His football takes are awful.

His leg is side on though and the ball is gone. I need to watch it again but I am sure he wasn't pushing through Kane with his studs, which if the rules were how I would like them, would make a difference. I wouldn't want that given for a team I was supporting (I know you won't believe me, but...

Anyway, England were in the ascendancy even before then, but would they have got the goal if the penalty had not been awarded? It's hypothetical and we will never know. On another night with different officials the penalty isn't awarded, the Dutch remain 1-0 up, and England push all night but...
