Daley Blind has the same hairline as Tom Hardy in "The Reverend"

Argentina truly have no business being there.
What an absolute waste of time this World Cup was for everyone involved with the Netherlands. Mind numbingly boring football and dumped out by the first decent team they faced.
They're not out yet.

Not been a good Dutch performance at all. Struggling to create anything
Brilliant shape and organisation by Argentina, they are cutting everything out.
A bit too slow from the Dutch however, making it easier for the Argentinian defenders.

Just how bad are the dutch? FFS, they can't create anything. I have a bad feeling Argentina might go all the way, they are so solid.

I'm falling asleep...overall quality has been average at best. I appreciate how disciplined they've been and effort off the ball, but there's only one dynamic player.

This Netherlands team with someone like Modric or even Eriksen would be quite something. They got feck all going on in midfield.

The gulf in quality between Messi and some of his team mates is pretty fecking wide.
Wonder what you think of the Dutch attackers. Acuna looks better in tight spaces than Depay and Gakpo

How many potential career ending injuries will Argentina get in the last 20 minutes? Before miraculously recovering.
