You might have a point tbf.
Day 18: Croatia vs Brazil | Netherlands vs Argentina (QF 1&2)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
The gulf in quality between Messi and any player currently playing is wide, tbf.
Timber looks like he's going to fall over at any minute.
I have to admit i dont know most of them but they look bang average.
Such a cheap fk…
Oh my God I thought that was in! Great free kick by Messi
That was damn close
Portugal v Argentina
Timberrrrrrrrr?
Holy cow. What a fk.
Close
that pass 
Omg
True of course, but you'd still expect better from Argentina.
Sub in Luuk and hoof it.
Luuk de Jong to the rescue
That was a fecking arrow of a FK
It was a foul. Doesnt excuse not booking Messi for the handball though.
Messi is still the best player in the world.
4d chess
LvG wishes he had big Marouane in the squad
Messi is nuts, just nuts
Is the pitch a bit wank or something? So many over hit passes and players slipping.
Blind's subbed off. Should've done it since the start of the tournament...
Finally Blind off.
That was the idea! (was secretly hoping he would dive)
No he's not, but he's doing a fine job for his country.
Winner between France and England going to win the wc. No other team has individual quality and squad depth as they do.
He's going down, I'm yellin TIMBER!
Portugal.
Argentina are trying to make the game a bit more even with the introduction of Paredes.
He is from Barcelona!
People said that about Brazil and they are out.
Hopefully he shouts beforehand
Messi is on some kind of level this World Cup
Great tackle by Lisandro
Not been a good Dutch performance at all. Struggling to create anything
I understand people have different opinions, but if people find the fundamentals and basics of football boring (tactical nous, solid defending, good ball retention) then perhaps football isn't in their best interests.
Not every team has a Messi or Neymar, Croatia are a solid team who work hard and do the simple basics of football really well, none of which are boring as that is just football.
What an absolute waste of time this World Cup was for everyone involved with the Netherlands. Mind-numbingly boring football that'll put anyone to sleep and dumped out by the first semi-decent team they faced.
