The coach excuses already flowing in

Spain were shit in 2014 and 2016 so it's not surprising they are shit now with mostly the same players.

The coach has nothing to do with it.

IMO they wanted to change the style after 2016.

The Russian's ability to trap the ball is shit.

Literally can't hold a pass to save their lives.

I feel my time was wasted beyond waste on this match.

Yesterday was such a great day in term of matches.

The piece of magic is because he was put on goal and he had a monstrous control to put himself on goal. but are we gonna pretend, he did not have the most attempt on goals by anyone this world cup? or that he missed a PK? or missed a chance against lloris when he was clear on goal yesterday? these little things add up at the end and do not look good for messi.

Also, are you really going to sit there are argue that Messi has not made a career at creating goals and scoring out of nothing? by his own standards, he was poor. If your rationale behind that is to bring up the circus argentina have been in this world cup, fine, you may have a point, but i still expected them to do better.

when i talked about dysfunctional teams going far in country tourney, i had the specific example of Domenech in 2006 in mind with Zidane sitting down the middle and rekting about every team on his way. We did not even have 10% of that level with Messi in this world cup

I felt like this every weekend for 5.5 years

Just make the switch already and become a full on Bayern fan, @zigra
It could be so easy. Satisfaction is so close.

The terrible thing is that it's not a weekend for me. Meaning that the very precious free-time of my work day was completely wasted

just support madrid and feel the champion of europe every season

How was that a foul on Golovin.

ON THE BLOODY BALL.

We just bought Tadic the lad and Bosz said he'd be open for a return to us. The future is bright imo

(I also read that de Boer is considered to replace ten Hag if he fails this season)

extra time is shit, it should be just 15 mins and goes to pk shootout

Yes he has but 95% of Messi's goals come when he receives the ball near the box so it only takes a 10 yard burst to be dangerous, at this WC it would take like 40 yards.

What you are basically saying you expect him to repeat Maradona 86 against England every game.

Why do these numpties not understand you can't do that and get away with it now there's VAR

They're gifting Spain ..wtf

wait they didnt give it?! lmaoo

CORRUPTION

VAR

lol heart in mouth moment there.

I did not expect him to score all goaols for his team, i expected him to be better than what we have seen. And from what i recall, even Messi picking up the ball 40 yards from goal is still as deadly a playmaker we have seen.

He just played poorly this world cup, simple as that

it was a blatant penalty though, I'm glad it wasn't given but they can definitely feel disgusted by that decision, both Pique and Ramos got wrestled.

hope DDG flops at the penalties, I'll gladly take ppl shitting on De Gea if it means Spain are sent home

Spain are OUT if De Gea is defending PKs

Nah, no pen. Good decision.

Aspas makes an ASS Pass.

It wasn't. That was not enough for a penalty. The refereeing team has been superb today.
