Marc 570 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Right finally time for a proper game after the shit that's been on show. I think Spain's lack of world class striker will be their downfall. Costa will be able to bully some sides but Pepe and Fonte should be able to handle him. WHy is Nacho starting ahead of Carvahjal or even Azpi? Come on CR7.

Machado 1,710 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I'm more confident this time than I was the last two times we faced Spain. We have a more experienced side while theirs is less than it was. With the amount of talent they've got though, you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhat limited, but extremely poised. Forecast: portugal wins 2-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Artful Dodger 1,831 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 The description of Hierro as a 'tough, no nonesense defender' is perhaps one of the worst descriptions of a truly superb footballer I've heard. Well done Beeb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cicero 5,267 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Is Azpilicueta being soely used as a Centre Back? No idea why he isn't starting. And Diego Costa up top? Hope Spain get crushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cicero 5,267 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 If Spain represents 'total football' and has a well established philosphy amongst it's set up, why on god's green earth are they starting Costa? On what basis? Iago Aspas checks all the boxes for a striker that beautifully fits their system. Nothing pisses me off more when national teams start names ahead of players that actually fit the fucking system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
