I can’t wait until Messi retires. Little bastard is too good.
Semi Finals: Argentina vs Croatia | Eng... France vs Morocco
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Using Gvardiol to mark Messi seems wrong to me. Gvardiol getting pulled into midfield by Messi and that's leaving Croatian defense in confusion.
Paredes is a twat
Paredes not getting a card for that is fecking crazy to me 
Anyone else think England are better than both these?
Well, maybe with a better coach.

El Carnicero
Lisandro coming on.
Licha 
Except it's not.
Multiple refs said that's not a faul.
And you will see that's controversial and bias to Argentina.
Wait a day and see.
HAHA. The job of learning and applying the rules of the game is that of the referee though, not the players. The same pundits were crying a few days ago because Kane didn’t get a penalty for a foul outside the box.
Peredes, what a gent..
Licha coming on
mate, football isn’t a turn based game. You need to take the entire move into account. Not a snapshot.
Licha in for that cnut paredes. Now I can finally support Argentina, our boy in and the cnut out.
How the feck did Paredes escape a yellow there?
Do Croatia have a Weghorst type player on the bench
I know coaches like a defensive sub but how often have we seen a team completely concede all possession afterwards?
Agree.
I know that in 2016 we entered the post factual world order, but saying that’s not a penalty is absolutely bonkers. Imagine an opposing GK does that to Rashford or Martial; we’d be asking for 6 match ban
The entire move is not a pen. Easy as that.
Gvardiol is class but he’s trying to do a little too much now.
how the hell does Paredes start over Martinez?

Lovren ducking useless as usual
Same way he got away with a red in the last.

The way people here are singing praises of Enzo Fernandez is surprising. He looks a decent to good young midfielder to me, nothing more. His vision is nothing special, his passing is nothing special, his pace is non existent. He is young and good for his age and can turn into good player but that’s about it. People going about him like he is the second coming of Riquelme.
Adore Kovacic's change of pace through midfield even if it does feel he should be better than he is.
Croatia are so shit its hilarious
Should put lovren up front and go long ball
Fair point, awful refereeing
No
There is clearly a hidden agenda
Probably Messi
Luckily for you, this WC is probably his last international tournament ever.
And at UCL he hasn't been great against good teams in the last 3 years, so you don't have to worry much about him in the UCL nowadays, only in Ligue 1 but nobody cares about what PSG does in France.
no oneFIFA cheating to make Paredes world champion, the twatsThere is clearly a hidden agenda
Yeah it is. Easy as that. Refs agree too, and it's them who are qualified to know
That's exactly it
I reckon if England were this side of the draw (Aside from the Brazil) they were probably the best side.
And some refs didn't agree so what does it say ?
I'm not normally one for conspiracies but something weird appears to be happeningThere is clearly a hidden agenda
