The best news is that England can't lose to Germany on penalties or in the semi-final, the path to the final starting to open up for England and I am with them all the way - to the final that is....;)
 
Neymar ....................... what a pathetic specimen he is.
A good strong 50/50 challenge and he decides to barrel roll 30yards along the touchline.
I really wish he'd hurt himself doing that.

So the same sort of thing that is seen from Ronaldo on plenty of occasions yes ? Another pathetic specimen then

I think Neymar has been in a different class during this World Cup.
Shortly after the barrel roll performance, he was on the floor holding his face when the opponent had caught Neymar's shoulder ...................... oh, and that dive the other night :rofl:.

Yup, Ronaldo can be a right twonk, no mistake, but Neymar wins this one for me, but why bring Ronaldo into the conversation?
My point was about Neymar, why don't you just agree or disagree without bringing another player into it?

The blatant feigning injury is cheating and needs to be stamped out. Whoever is doing it and no matter how high their profile is.

Simples

As with the bottling of DQ high profile golfers / they need to punish the players that do it

The problem is the three worse players - Suarez , Ronaldo and Neymar are very high profile and the governing bodies don’t dare charge them- it’s spineless and it won’t go away until they do something

Agreed ....................... 100% :thup:.
 

Quality. There always looked like one of the so called big teams would go home early as many have struggled early on but managed to get it done. Germany though have looked shambolic and disorganised from the outset. There has to be a major rift in their camp as Low surely can't have got them playing that badly. I can't see how he'll hang onto the job, new contract or not
 
That’s the over confidence I’m talking about.
We aren’t good enough to make that statement hence we have to play smarter.
It’s not over confidence at all, if we beat Belgium then we go through as top, unbeaten and 100% win rate, the team that finish 2nd will obviously see a team playing well, if we try and fix the result our perceived arrogance could give them a boost.
I’m happy to play one game at a time and try to win, I don’t think we’re good enough to win the World Cup, just hope the team gives a 100% effort and if we lose we’ve no excuses.

Sounds like changes being made, probably from both teams according to SSN. I don't see that as a bad thing and don't think it'll make a difference and both sides will want to go out and try and win and top the group
 
Germany not looking great - why Ozil went back into the team I’m not sure , he is poor , really poor - Sane should be walking into this team.

This is the Ozil who created 7 chances yesterday then. Ok, he is far from his best, but the rest of the team need to look in the mirror too. Hummels should have scored for sure.
 
Surely Löw will step down now? He's achieved a lot obviously but perhaps he's reached the end of the line. Maybe they'll give the job to Klopp?

Sky Sports says Dier is going to start tonight. Initially I thought in Henderson's spot, but now I'm thinking if he wants to rest Walker because of his yellow card, Dier would be a good replacement to play that role on the right side of the back three. He's quicker than the likes of Cahill and Jones, and comfortable playing out from the back like Walker.
