FIFA World Cup 2014 - Final & 3rd Place Play-off [12th - 13th July] **spoilers**

In all hoensty, kyut hasn't done even a decent job. He constantly smothers attacks. I guess I don't know the depth to Dutch players, but someone who might be willing to run against players instead of stifling the ball going past the half way mark might help.

And these English commentators completely crucifying the Brazilian team, say there mudt be 11 players better out there from such a big nation. These same people who were applauding England for coming bottom of the table, because for 20 mins in the Italy game they showed a bit of pinash, oh and we now have youth! Talking about Brazil needing a reform. This team came 4th in the world cup, have a bit of respect
 
It appears the Premier League has sucked all the ability from the Brazilians and a lot of other England based players in this WC.
 
You can see that he drags his leg, his leg movement is completely unnatural, he tapped the ball on and didn't pick his left leg off the floor he just dragged it and smashed into BLind. It still might be a penalty, I think he could have moved around him very easily, but I think the ref has seen the leg drag and his intention to force contact regardless.
 
To me it looked like Oscar could see it was going to be a stonewall pen and started going down before getting the inevitable contact and that is what the ref has booked him for.

You can try and pick it apart all you want...that's a stone wall penalty.
 
Hernanes is light years ahead of the rest of the Brazilian team and looked that way from the first game of the WC. How did he not get starts?
 
While they keep saying that brazil don't have the players it must be ine if the most expensive/valuable squads of all nations 80 million cb pairing, alves/maicon on rb. Maxwell/Marcelo. Willian 28 million, oscar 25 million? Paulinho 12 million, hulk 40 million. Etc

"Widely acknowledged that Hulk has been one if the most disappointing players of the tournament"

I'm not so sure about that, I can think of plenty of players who've been just as lacklustre if not more.

It is also widely acknowledged that ITV's commentary is uninformed dross 100% of the time.
 
Pff marking and picking up runners is so overrated.

i also totally pigeoned Hernanes. He has been dross since I posted and I now realise the error of my ways.
