    Okazaki came on in the dying minutes for Japan - guess that injury of his has cleared up.

    Even an injured Okazaki can do 5 minutes <ok>

    Silva came on for Portugal for the last few minutes of a fairly awful game and promptly got booked.

    Need a good performance so we can convince someone he's any good and they'll buy him.

    Has been quality - needs to play as a striker not a winger.

    Playing to his strengths at international level, the opposite of what we i.e. England do with Vardy. Quite ironic really.

    That performance should silence all those who have questioned his ability.

    His problem at Leicester has been that he's been in and out of the team and played in the wrong position (and he's not been alone!). We saw what he could do in the pre season tournament against Barcelona a couple of years ago.

    I was at that Barcelona game and thought he was quality. Agree that he hasn't been given a real run in the side.

    I wouldnt be against giving him another chance as yes he hasnt had much of a chance but again he has shown nothing to suggest he deserved more game time

    Great goals by him today, really good feet for the second as well as the finish for the first. Could he have a future here?

    He'd never get those chances in the prem. I just hope it adds a few extra mill to his sale

    Either way we come out of this better anyway either with a rejuvenated player or more likely a better transfer fee. Pleased he’s doing well, it’s not like to done anything wrong, had a bad attitude or not tried or anything

    Damn, yes he was, forgot about him. Off after a couple of minutes, really not a good way to start your world cup <laugh>

    Agent Benny has failed to nobble Hazard or Lakaku and now they are off and will be fresh to play England.
