El Profesor Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 Modric is a genius, getting to a World Cup final with a defence formed by Lovren, Strinic and Vida is no ordinary feat.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 11, 2018 Subscriber Posted July 11, 2018 Don't mind who wins this. I quite like both sides. Croatia have achieved a great thing by reaching a World Cup final just by producing a quality team from a very narrow population, not much luck to it at all. France I feel like they've paid their dues by losing the Euro final on home turf and maybe this is their redemption. I'll probably enjoy this a lot more than I would have if England were involved.
Asura Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 If Croatia win the final against france after playing three ETs and one less day of rest, they should be declared world champions of all time... seriously thats a no fucking joke...

I can't see it. Even if they were fully rested. This France side has way too much quality in depth.
Danny Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 I want Croatia to win but I think France will just overpower them, we tore down their wings today and if we were any better on the ball when they pressured us maybe we could have carried on, but France definitely can. I think it'll end up fairly one sided tbh.
Inverted Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 Besides the obvious underdog factor of Croatia winning it, watching Deschamps bottle two major finals in a row would be quite hilarious.
Dr. Gonzo Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 I want Croatia to win because of Dejan Lovren, and it'd mean we're knocked out by the actual winners of the tournament... which is a little less shite than just getting knocked out (or not even making it out of the group stages like that sad group of "favourites" ). Also France are France, so they've got that going against them as well in terms of their general likeability.
Spike Posted July 12, 2018 Posted July 12, 2018 I seem to recall that @Danny and @Blue disagreed with me that Croatia are better than England.

And on another day you would have gone 5-0 down at halftime. Just accept you were wrong.

With all those chances they had in the first half? There wasn't much in the game and they won, falls in line with what I said. Step away from your laptop and start an argument with someone else
