World Cup Match Thread- Quarter-Finals Day 2

[CosmicHotspur]

Not sure this is thread for it but FIFA disciplinary committee are "investigating" the Zuniga challenge that injured Neymar!! Why don't they investigate the Fernandinho's 42 fouls or the Home bias referee decisions or the diving?? !!!!

There were over 60 fouls in that game - could be a record, or close, in an international game.

I believe he's already come home.

Yeah, what i meant was that his last season was such a shame in the sense that he'd probably be there playing if it wasn't. Against jan as well..

I'm yet to be convinced that Clarke Carlisle knows anything about football.

He is one if the few footballers who managed to fill in the policy toon form correctly so he got the job by default.

Notice how he uses words with 3-4 paragraphs?

Probably because one tackle broke bones in someone's back and the others were bad tackles.

Belgium look like doing a France.. Going out with a 'bof'

Lamela.

He's started preseason a couple days ago though I don't think I have seen Poch yet

Dembele for De Bruyne

Origi

Hazard Fellaini Mirallas

Dembele Witsel
​

Vertonghen has put some great crosses in but Fellaini hasn't been at the end of them, get that plonker in the box since he offers fuck all in CM

Also Fellaini struggling to tackle Enzo Perez let alone Messi, looks like a good signing for Valencia

But they need to focus on the real things blighting football which they turn a blind eye to. Neymar is the golden bit and that's theming reason they are doing this.

Poch was there for the first training session.

Also some sad news for Argentina today, Legend Alfredo Di Stefano is in a critical condition

 

[mark87]

Would be interesting to see how Januzai would do in this game.

But I think the Argies don't really love him as much as the Spaniards.

I'll repeat....a player broke a bone in his back on a football pitch. Of course this will be looked at as it's a pretty serious injury. As a sporting association they need to look at it. It will be seen as a bad tackle and then move on.

Yeah they turn a blind eye to dutch players diving all over the shop aka cheating. But I don't see the same demand to investigate that.

I saw the spurs extra photos yesterday or the day before and there wasn't poch there. Though just seen his first training session happened today

 

[Blake Griffin]

i wish jan could be bothered more often.

Oh no. Certainly one of my heroes.

True but he did win the Copa America with Argentina

Insane some of the stories I read about and a shame how his family situation is at the moment
