    Martial? Clearly the only qualifications for this list was a birth certificate.

    Cited for truth. Though Benzema wouldn't have changed France's fortunes anyway. :stuckup: :lol2: Kid should have kicked him in the balls for Thierry Henri's dive in WC 2006.

    It wasn't Pogba's fault. That was Deschamps' call. By playing Coman and Payet, he had to sit Pogba deep and thus uninvolved in the forward run of play pretty much.

    This is absurd historical revisionism. You're presuming that if history were changed and only two teams from each group could qualify max, all matches and all strategies would play out exactly the same. Fact is that nobody could beat Santos at his suffocating antics, and the strategy worked...

    I don't think people appreciate how much this is the Sporting Lisbon club of the tournament. Infighting in Portugal when it comes to NT picks has always been about Benfica in the south and Porto in the north. But Mário, Silva, Patricio, William Carvalho ... And the former players of Cedric...

    I don't participate in that Messi-Ronaldo baiting, but dammit weren't they just talking about how great the tournament was going for Messi and the opposite for Ronaldo?

    It's very sad. He's an also-ran at Fiorentina, for crying out loud. With Fernando Santos coaching, good luck seeing either team score a goal in this final...

    Germany is so up Spain's 2008 butthole... they even came with only one true center forward and otherwise planned to play with a false #9. :sergio: :lol:

    Agreed. Well that was a bit of keyboard vomit. Let me just say as an outsider: Belgium has crap defenders masquerading as quality. Build from the back like an Italy and you'll get the midfield and winger engine working properly in balance. Giving up three goals to Wales in a QF is...

    I dunno. Here in the US there's an awareness, but nobody is talking sheeet. And we hosted the Copa America and that barely registered. I guess it could be worse and they be all like Salah Abdeslam and into reality TV 24x7. I should be kinda flattered that you consider me to be the equivalent...
