kind of false when france and brazil had both qualified before their last game so made plenty of changes

England had pretty much qualified after 2.
Brazil have been hit & miss,so have France.
I honestly don’t think there’s a great team in this competition.

Listened to Trippier on the Under the cosh podcast recently,he couldn’t speak high enough of Simone.
Which surprised me,because he’s got to be up there ?.

If any of you aren’t familiar with “under the cosh” podcast I’d definitely recommend,some cracking story’s from some of the older players.

The one with the guy Brian Clough adopted was incredible.
 
Whenever I see Antony I can't believe anyone paid more than £20m for him, let alone the £80m Man Utd paid. No pace, one dimensional, can't beat a full back or cross. He has nothing but a load of pointless tricks and the ability to curl one in off his left occasionally.

Him & Nunez make Haaland look a right bargain
 
Brazil have been favourites all the way through this tournament. They have Fred in midfield. Would he even get into England squad? They have Richarlison up front, but he'd never keep Kane out of team at Spurs.

Would be interesting to know how many Brazil players would make England's starting line up? Casemiro maybe, though Rice seems to hold his own. Junior, although England have dangerous wide players, no matter how much we sometimes slag them off. Probably the keeper, although Pickford hasn't really let England down yet.

Nunez at least has devastating pace and is a physical beast. Antony will be in Italy or France in 18 months on loan. Reminds me of Pepe at Arsenal.

At least Antony has scored some critical goals in his early Utd career. Time will tell what sort of player he becomes, but I think as a Utd fan, I'd like to get behind him as much as I can in his early days at the club, rather than try and pick as many holes as I can :)

Agreed.
Were probably the most balanced team.
I just think Mbappe could be the difference for France.
Wouldn’t count the Argies out either.

It's worth mentioning that France midfield looks weak without pogba and kante

Spain almost went out

Argies heads go so easy

Brazil just lost yes second string but this is Brazil

This is going to be interesting

Neymar?
That’s probably about it.
They’ve got goals in them,but very dodgy at the back.
