alex the problem is in the following in my opinion:

1- zero creativity
2- average age of the team is higher than the rest of the teams in the group
3- the fact russia sits back 80 mins and then plays with high intensity in the last 10 mins or when they concede
4- the manager is waaaaaaaaaaaaay to calm!! when did you see him get up and give instructions?? i've watch all russia's games and not once did they show him standing he is always sitting with a look of defeat on his face that clearly reflects on the players. there is always a sense of defeat in the team.

russia has a long way to prepare for 2018 if they want to stay longer in the tournament.

That third places team have chance to get through makes these last group games less fun. With 4 points already there's like no chance England doesn't advance nothing to get excited about
yup

new modus sucks

out of 24 teams 16 advance? What is this shit

group stage means nothing

Things have changed. The four best third-placed teams will advance. The whole format is a joke. Some group winners will face third-placed teams, others second-placed teams. It favors France, for example.

Only a matter of time before England score, they've totally dominated the half. Slovakia look really mediocre, and the left back position for them might as well be manned by a statue of Juraj Janosik.

Russia are pathetic and should all be sent to the gulag. They barely tried on the first Wales goal, and they literally stood and watched the second goal. How the hell does Neil Taylor get two bites at scoring without someone challenging him :lol: "For the Motherland!", except football, where we clearly don't give a shit.

Yeah, I haven't been impressed either. I'm glad the knockout games are coming up soon. That should at least be more interesting. :D
