patrickmuf: Croatia is stronger than the teams England has faced though Croatia is still not a traditional team Team strength is on different level Everton is different from Spurs and Spurs is different from Barcelona E.g Tottenham(Croatia) is a strong team but is it the same as Barcelona(Spain) or Bayern(Germany). If you have to play the teams in the caliber Spurs all the way to the CL final vs playing Barcelona Bayern which one will you choose |

patrickmuf: Not discrediting anyone, what matters is that they faced average and mediocre teams all the way from even the WC qualifiers coupled with their loudmouthed media who won't let social media rest with that "coming home" b.s. Trying to enter WC finals through backdoor and making noise like they eliminated any big boy on their way.

odizeey: Who were those defence? Panama? Tunisia? The quality of the defenders matters. The way they tore it apart matters more. England that can't string delicate passes for 30 seconds together were tearing defenders apart? How's that possible? Do you know apart from set pieces England scored I think only 2 goals from open play. The only defence they tore apart and bossed from start to finish was Panama. Even shame suppose catch you. Columbia took them to PK while Croatia, their first real test, battered and outclassed them from start to finish. Overhyped players!! Go rewatch the match and see as determination and great skills coupled with endless pressure exposed their mediocrity. 7 Likes |

I really don't know if Marcus Rashford will amount to anything like his early potential suggested. It is a shame; from intelligent run-ins and burying chances with aplomb to headless-chicken activity-forming. For the sake of our club, I wish him the very best. 5 Likes 1 Share |

JayKayMaybachz:I doubt so. He has lost his ways and it will be difficult to come back. He has been playing like that for a very long time now. I wonder why nobody has given him a dress down yet. Once he gets the ball he doesn't look up anymore, no intelligent play with teammates 1 Like 1 Share |

Lana1: Kane is not overrated. He is the highest goal scorer in this world cup and has been the consistently highest scoring CF in one of the best leagues in the world(EPL). His style of football may not particularly be eye-catching and that is understandable. He may not have had a good game yesterday but quit saying he is overrated. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Kemizee:6 goals including 3 pens and 1 deflection. He could as well be on 2 goals!! Ok. Maybe he's not overrated. But he's definitely not worth the hype!! And he's definitely not Elite! We've seen elite strikers in their prime. Eg Aguero, Falcao, Lewandowski. An elite striker would not ve missed what he missed yesterday especially in such an important game!! Been the highest goal scoring CF means nothing. If anything, it only tells half the story. U cant be padding goals against Burnley, Arsenal and West Ham every year and then be missing 1-on-1 in high stakes Semi-final matches!! That is not what i would call Elite!! |

Kemizee: Jose is a part of his problem but of course not all of his problem. I think his attitude is mostly fine. He steps up and he takes responsibility and has no fear even at his age. Some may see that as him thinking he's already a star but I don't see that I just don't believe he's been pointed in the right direction about understanding the game and what he needs to develop in his game. He also needs to find his best position and work tirelessly on improving his basic skillset. Sometimes doing the sinple things well is the most important thing. 3 Likes 1 Share |

GloryIsaac:In this tournament, the three lions were not overhyped or hyped up in anyway, if one thing, nobody believed in this team... Now if you think the whole Coming home chant was hype, then you obviously are getting things wrong, any team that reaches the quarters let alone the semis of any competition has the right to dream...We all detest the English but let that not blind us as to what reality really means... It was Mou that said if we get to the quarter finals of the UCL, then and only then will he start believing... 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by sinizia: 1:18pm On Jul 12, 2018 |
Graeme Souness believes England have been a “back-to-front team playing very basic football” at the World Cup. Souness reaffirming my analysis last night. Every complaint of mine repeated by Souness. I knew I was right when I said Alli and Lingard were no match for Modric and Rakitic. While the latter duo controlled the game, the former duo ran up and down cluelessly, more concerned with scoring than controlling the midfield in order to wrestle the initiative from the Croatians. England were more concerned with kicking the ball forward for Sterling to chase. They couldn't string passes together for 20 secs without kicking the ball up handing the momentum back to Croatia every time. No striker would thrive in that tactic, not even the best CFs out there. And Pep's fanboys were already cűmming in their pants blindly attributing England wins and style to Pep when England were not playing anything close to Pep's style. Odizeey, come read what I've been telling you since. 1 Like 1 Share |

sinizia:I knew that England's midfield will be a problem. but their attack and defense are solid. the plan to flood Croatia and overwhelm them with attacking prowess was working in the 1st half. they had the chances to bury the game but Kane just not in the game. so sad. |

Lana1: He is....If you think he isn't, try purchasing him and you will know how much valauable he is to Spurs and how much he would command in today's inflated transfer market. You conveniently brought out a select group of players to compare with Kane. Aguero last outscored Kane in the EPL league in 2015. Kane has had more EPL goals than him in the last 3 seasons(2016, 2017 & 2018) so how you say Aguero is Elite and Kane is not is beyond words and Kane has even outscored him in this World Cup( no matter the type of goal). Even Falcao has not done this domestically. I equally wonder when last you watched Lewandowski on actual performances and not on reputation. You talked about missed chances...Every striker including Messi and Ronaldo have messed up lots of easy opportunities, Kane did it yesterday and it looks like it is the worst thing? Go and watch Ronaldo's unbelievable miss against Morocco as well as the penalty he failed to convert. Is Ronaldo also not elite? The stats padding is done even by Ronaldo and Messi against cannon fodder La Liga teams so why do you single Kane out? Harry Kane may not be aesthically the kind of striker you like or as talented as you feel but to call him overrated is just plain ridiculous. He is one of the best three CFs in the game currently and if you think he isn't, then list out here(exclude Ronaldo & Messi) 5 strikers you think are better than him currently Sir... 6 Likes 1 Share |
