Perhaps It is “tactical” and he will be a Super-Sub in the 2nd half. But I am sure he is very dissapointed not to start the mstch.
You need to get over your dislike of Ronaldo and appreciate the footballing genius that he is. He may appear to be an egotistical maniac, but he is a superb athlete with unbelievable talent. Definately no deflection, and to take that free kick with the pressure of the moment was something to be savoured by all football fans.
I think they’ll come good but it’s a team of individuals. They’re traditionally mediocre in the groups. Maybe Giroud would complement the others more than one of the front three and Pogba again just poncing about.
True. I think in this match they need a Target Striker like Girout. Pogba looks very ordinary. The World Cup often highlights the Real Stars to the Pseudo Stars.
No, I don’t like him. Don’t need to ‘get over’ anything, though. I see nobody is defending his dive for the penalty or arguing that DeGea was well beaten. Flukiest hat trick ever. You lot keep your Andrex to hand though.
Aussies a bit unlucky with the VAR there. Poor game, but that’s the fault of France. Ref evened it out sharpish though.
He bought the challenge from Nacho, who didn't get the ball - penalty. VAR is there for a reason, and didn't deem it a dive. DeGea had a brain fart - so Ronaldo took a snapshot and it went in - yes, lucky, but if you don't buy a ticket you'll never win the lottery. As I said before, the free kick was sublime, especially considering the pressure he was under. You keep the Andrex to dry your eyes pal.
France have a bunch of talented players but no leaders by the look of it, highly paid ‘artistes’. A Ronaldo or a Ramos who will always take responsibility makes a real difference. No matter how good Pogba allegedly is he will never be a great unless he cares more and is prepared to show it. Not sure who England’s leaders are. Aussies could nick this.
I think that, either you need to invest in a new TV or get your eyes checked, as that free kick was beautiful with no deflection. Also, I don't need anyone to tell me not to get carried away over Ronaldo when I know he is one of the greatest players of all time and does it when the pressure is on, time after time in the biggest of games.
