The French team dismantled this Swiss team and Argentina have barely had any significant chances. Don't look impressive at all..

Argentina have been flaccid again, but France's success over the Swiss was as much down to their naivety and gung-ho tactics. Fortunately for them Hitzfield has reigned them back in again.
 
Yeh Rakitic was born in Switzerland and played for their U21. I even remember a double interview with him and Petric when they both played bundesliga and they talked about each players choice in national team.

:lol: what are you on about? He's had one chance this game which he tried a chip. The attempt which he hit over the bar in this half was a very difficult angle. He's played well given he's working from scraps, last game he provided two tap ins. Swiss need to be braver and give Drmic some support.

Chile, Mexico, Greece, Nigeria and Algeria all played much better than the teams the played against and they all lost. Switzerland need to take their chances or they'll be the next name on that list. Colombia are the only team that has won their KO match and actually looked well worth their win.

In what world did Nigeria play better than France?
 
Di Maria thinks his rabona's are gonna work out every time.

Ivan Rakitic is born and raised in Switzerland. Never lived a day of his life in Croatia. Used to play for their under 21s. Same with Zdravko Kuzmanovic from Serbia/Internazionale.....

The whole Swiss team is from Fmr Yugoslavia : Drmic, Gavranovic, Seferovic, Shaqiri, Mehmedi, Behrami, Xhaka, Dzemaili
 
What an idiot, what lawro said if he was one of my team mates i'd go full keano on him.
 
They might have a group of top quality attackers but without a system to get the best out of them it will always look disjointed and not work.
 
If Switzerland win this, Belgium have a free pass to the semi's despite being as shit as England in this tournament but going much further due to having an piss easy schedule.

Most Ethnic Albanians?
 
Rodriguez is the perfect fullback. I'm happy with Shaw but it's pretty clear who the better player is, and he might have been cheaper too.
 
Di Maria is so one footed. The only reason he does that rabona is because he can't cross with his right foot
