Ridiculous, made Gvardiol look average there and he's been one of the best players this world cup

same. it might even put this Messi v Ronaldo debate to bed.If Messi wins this WC, the world will erupt. I kinda hope he does, but don't want the argies to win anything

It's out wide they have nothing. Perisic is not the player he was and they have no other wide players. Their attacking play is so narrow

It's only really a debate in terms of achievements, in terms of natural footballing ability there is no debate to be had.

I guess winning the World cup trumps all other achievements too.

Imagine this lot winning the world cup having lost to Saudi Arabia

For all the talk about Messi, this team don’t get enough credit for how hard they work for each other. They’re like a pack of wolves, doubling and trebbling up on opponents every time they try and win the ball back. Messi wouldn’t get a sniff without the guys behind him putting in the leg work.

Not sure of the stats but it certainly feels like the winning team losing their opening game of the cup is something that often occurs. Not this year of course because Morocco are going to win it and they didnt lose their first gameImagine this lot winning the world cup having lost to Saudi Arabia

Surprised they haven't rested Messi. This game has been over for ages
