    Not the two picked. Willian did well.

    France were the better side overall, controlled the game in the 2nd half, and were deserved winners

    Croatia were unlucky with the decisions for France's first two goals though. And the scoreline was harsh - so some justicce that Lloris' howler made it a bit more respectable.

    Lovren didn't have a better tournament that either Alderweireld or Vertonghen. He didn't even have a better tournament than Vida.

    You have to throw Vertonghen’s **** defending against Japan into the mix. That was a shocker. I am happy to have Vida or Alderweireld ahead of Lovren, however Lovren did make one of the best bit of defending in the tournament with the tackle/clearance on Kane. I do think he was ahead of Vertonghen. Sadly I don’t recall a Lovren cock up

    Tbf Lovren had a good tournament, until he opened his mouth.

    But I begrudge him everything.

    Lovren is deservedly there, unfortunately.

    Let's hope he has used up all his limited skills at the WC and will be back to his prattish best for Liverpool. :)

    Is that real?! I can understand Paulinho, Griezmann and Hazard but I am amazed by Neymar and Young?!

    My team would have been: Lloris (France), Trippier (England), Vida (Croatia), Varane (France), Hernandez (France), Modric (Croatia), Pogba (France), Torreira (Uruguay), Perisic (Croatia), Kane (England), Mbappe (France)

    Sponsored by Neymar's agent?

    Don't be stupid, his agent doesn't pay anyone money, he just makes a **** ton (his agent is his dad, if you are ever bored and read about Neymar's history and how much his dad has made out of it you will probably hate football)
