Croatian's is the midfield Spain think they have
Day 18: Croatia vs Brazil | Netherlands vs Argentina (QF 1&2)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Croatia is better in midfield but have weak attacking options.
Naymar looks like he's controlled by a kid playing video game.
Might be an unpopular opinion, but I rate Martinelli above both of them. Granted he plays on the left.
all their subs are super saiyans.
and Paqueta is garbage.
and Paqueta is garbage.
Can you think of others? His finishing was great in the one other big final - Barca vs Juve. I don't think he's fit at all today.
So glad he didn’t end up at Chelsea.. and that’s saying something because we are shite in the final 3rd. Brazilian Pulisic.
Need Suker to come on.
Good stuff from Antony.
Was worried about that for them. Can definitely match Brazil but, outside of Perisic, I don't know where the goals come from.
Hmm Vini out
luckily, Vinicius was fairly invisible today.
Massive mistake not taking him.
wait untill we reach penalty shootout.
Hate to say it but yea Martinelli is turning into quite the player.
He's on the bench...
He should be changin Neymar, not Vinicus. There goes the vertical threat down the left.
Brozovic needs to pay attention.
Brazil using a lot of their firepower early - clearly don't want ET/Pens
Taking him where?
Can see Brazil nicking this late on but neither of these sides will frighten France or Argentina (and probably not even Netherlands)
Another chance gone.
Livakovic there again
Neymar is barely jogging. Take him off, ffs.
Croatia are so blunt going forward. Why was Rebic not picked?
On the scale of shit tattoos, that Brozovic effort has to be right up there.
This goalie is doing his best to keep Croatia in it
I don't know where this Croatian keeper plays but he's ain't staying there for long.
Where's martinelli and Bruno gimeresh?
Croatia’s midfield is brilliant. But you feel Brazil players are more capable of a moment of magic to break the deadlock.
Just various QF and SF games for PSG where I've seen him fluff his lines in front of goal. Unfortunately can't think of particular ones off hand but its definitely something that's stuck with me. I can definitely remember a couple against Chelsea but can't remember the year. Ironically I can't remember it ever being an issue when I watched him at Barca!!
Edit: and I don't think he had one that I remember against us, for PSG, in that two legs with Ole. To be fair this is probably a sample size of maybe 6-10 games I'm thinking of.
DDG replacement?
Brazil starting to look more threatening now
Too many fake blondies
All these Brazil blonde hair style somehow reminds me of Romania '98. Should go full team blonde.
Neymar is bad but the problem is, Brazil can't even take the ball to their attackers so Neymar is pretty much the only option they have, no matter how bad he is.
Liking what I see from Livakovic - someone will be in for him in the summer
Same old same old. Just won't go in.
Brazil just switching to 2nd gear
