Neville says no pen. I agree.
Semi Finals: Argentina vs Croatia | Eng... France vs Morocco
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Ya that's the problem for them. Their midfield has been consistently execellent throughout the World Cup but they've consistently had no option to aim for up front. Looks like it's going to cost them.
Is it mandatory now to say transition instead of counter attack?
If anyone needs reminding, it’s you mate.
I feel like the most important attacking attribute for a good team is runners in behind.
Not really, it's just quite nice to have a co-comm who isn't a miserable cnut.
How would you rate Brazil then?
Argentina makes for a more interesting final imo (I'm kinda neutral)
What are Neville, Wright and Keane talking about? 
Crazy Walton has to correct them

Yes in my opinion he places his arm against his body and then moves his complete body so that the arm blocks the shot.
What are they smoking in the studio
Hot take.
It's almost like when Alvarez played the ball past the keeper, and the keeper put this leg out to stop him that he stopped his running path and it was a foul.
And it's almost like the ball was still in play, even if a player cleared it off the line it could have still gone to Alvarez, thus it was a foul.
If the keeper doesn't get the ball its a foul IMO
ref really should have given Argentina that free kick at the end of that half. Could have been a third
Peter Walton 
Yep, that's one of the most important factors in modern football
Peter Walton is correct. Win the ball for fecks sake.
Peter Walton with the instant burial
He totally sticks his leg out. Definitely a pen. Neville saying he’s standing his ground is wrong.
Neville
At them trying to argue with Walton.I'm not sure they are scars. Think he still has acne.
Peter Walton try not to blindly defend the referees challenge [IMPOSSIBLE]
Not, that wasn't Messi and yes that was a penalty.He should stop getting ran into by Messi though, everyone knows thats a penalty
All of ITV studio saying it’s not a penalty
We saw Croatia simultaneously playing their best and worst football this tournament in that first half.
They didn't, Brazil just didn't convert their chances early on which would've opened the game.
Thank god they didn't give us that peno. IT's a 50/50 I'd say.
but I don't want it, everyone will start talking shit
What are they on about? He tries to save the shot, doesn't and clatters into the player. It's a clear penalty.
This is why var is never going to work. Football is still massively subjective, even with black and white rules.
The keeper has as much a right to go for that as the attacker has.
Will Messi get the assist for the 2nd?
Never thought I would agree with Walton. Those 3 are off their rockerWhat are Neville, Wright and Keane talking about?
Crazy Walton has to correct them
So these pundits are basically saying if a player goes for a tackle, misses the ball and makes contact with the player, it's not a foul? Clowns, makes no difference if it's the keeper
For the first time ever Walton speaks some sense

I am, was a real miracle.. that said, don't want this to become trashing. Let's see, it is in our nature to go for it and God help our defence then.
Croatia were more composed and played their patient long distance style of football.
I can't believe that the pen is even a debate on here, had the keeper not taken Alverez down he would have been first to Lovrens poor clearance.
It's a stonewall pen.
It's a stonewall pen.
The pundits have lost it.
Gotta find something.
What a clownfest on ITV
Madness, no idea what they’ve been smoking in that cosy studio? It’s as clear as day penalty as you would see.What are Neville, Wright and Keane talking about?
Crazy Walton has to correct them
Never thought I’d see myself agreeing with Peter Walton!
