BBZ8800 you got too emotional mate :lol:
There's nothing wrong in getting excited over your country doing well at the WC. But can't be frustrated at people not getting behind Croatia or predicting they'll get smashed by Brazil.
Since you don't have exciting new talents in attack, or a young...
Nah man. Small teams get subdued by Spain's possession football. Bigger teams have tools to perform and finish counterattacks or beat them in some other way. But aside from some lucky goal, the likes of Morocco are light work for Spain.
Kul_z BBZ8800 I didn't label Croatia as buss parkers or playing ugly football. But you overrachieved(like always?). And tbf you didn't have any exciting player since Modric peaked.
Not sure why you lads get so defensive because no one is on the bandwagon this time around.
You had your moment in the sun tbf. Modric Ballon D'or winner was a fraud and probably that WC final wouldn't have been possible in other circumstances(didn't win a single KO match in 90 minutes?). Time to put out another generation of players and maybe we'll get on the bandwagon.
Brazil themselves haven't beaten anyone of note at this tournament though. Yes, them and France look like the favourites to play the final, but anything can happen from here on.
Probably not as good without his pace, but he's twice the player Haaland is when it comes to technique. Places shots, fires them in, lobs etc you name it. Haaland is much more limited up until now.
