Brazil should spend more time without Neymar. Most over hyped player ever.. All he does try stupid flicks if he cannot go for goal himself.

fransslabakJust cheered a Dutch goal with nearly as much enthusiasm as I would an England goal. Bit of genius was that 🇳🇱

I know some of the players did not help him, but that performance from the Referee was one of the worst i have ever seen at a top level match Netherlands vs Argentina.Not a big fan of English Ref Oliver who had the other match yesterday was outstanding in that match. Always worry when you don't see a replay of the penalty looked very soft and maybe outside the box i thought.

Will England be typical England and beat the French, then lose to Morocco?

England are so slow at progressing the ball, almost zero creativity. What is the point of passing sideways time after time along the backline?
Hendersons first instinct is to pass sideways or back, Rice is playing as an extra defender and rarely progresses the ball. Southgate is the problem, he has Maddison and Grealish Sitting there, both are creative. Wilson too, Kane is too slow up front and better playing behind a striker in my opinion.
I expected us to lose even though we have the talent to win it, but not with bloody Southgate in charge.

Mainly spain but teams in international football play not to lose & take their chance in a penalty shoot out. Sad but true. Its why i don't really like international Football.

Don't get what the TV and Radio are doing moaning about the referee, Yes at times he was inconsistent with his fouls but when you get 2 Pens in a Q/F you can't blame the Ref for the defeat.

True but the ref didn't give either, unless I'm mistaken? I know at least one he didn't give. We shouldn't have to rely on a referee anyway - France aren't anything special.

The trouble is Mbappe is special. He skinned walker like Bolt would skin me. Griezeman is still a quality player. We have great players too but for some reason dont show when it matters. Foden should be the hub of the team he is our most gifted player.

He should be given credit for changing the culture but it's time for a fresh pair of eyes. Saka had that French back line on toast and got hooked. Just stupid.
