Arsenal lost Jesus though Even though he is not the best player in the world, he was crucial for them. After his injury, they have overachieved for some time and continued to win for a few weeks but eventually they had to slow down. This guy in attack today is bad. And I don't get this new...

Croatian commentator said exactly the same now. 1. There was a contact 2. The question is whether that should be a pen 3. But the same contact was a pen in Wc semis, so then this is also a clear pen ** anyway, it is visible from the plane that refs are helping to United and Arsenal over City...

Exactly the same pen as Alvarez-Livakovic on Argentina-Croatia

I liked him, but he doesn't care. Balotelli vibes. Too cool for school. He doesn't have the drive.

Same hopes every year. Before this season, we apparently had the best attack in Europe. You get fooled easily by a horrible quality of La Liga.

The first Croatian NT coach, who led a team to quarters of Euro 1996 (lost 2:1 to winners Germany) and semifinals on a Wc 1998 (lost again to future winners France 2:1). One of the best motivator-coaches. He was always creating some drama and gossip to fire up his players before key matches...

Some fight between him and the club. The club asked 35m for him. Brighton offered 35m, Zaniolo declined. Milan offered 25m, Zaniolo accepted, Roma declined. But lately the club relegated him to a bteam and his only option was Turkey even though they offered less than Milan.

As Birdy said, imo, it is not that simple. EPL wants money, but not as full retard as Uefa or Fifa who are willing to go to extremes in terms of payment and looking ridiculous. England wants money, but they want to get rid of extreme cheating cases and oil money. As Total Football said, it is...

Jamie, you said that Torres will be a good player for us when we had a fight before we signed him and I said that he'll be a fraud. Coutinho, Kessie, Germany 2018 is like a minor offense compared to predicting that Ferran will be a success ;)

This is offtopic right? If Pedri is their best midfielder, that says a lot of their current level. About Pedri, a hint. Don't compare him with Betis and Girona because the current financial and quality poorness is getting close to Seria A from the last 10 years ago. Plus, La Liga midfielders...

Odegaard looked like the smart kid from the day1. Halilovic was like Dembele's IQ brother with even worse professionalism and had one trick in his sleeve. But his running visually resembled on Messi and that's it. We had to sign him. The same as how Seri and Arthur visually resembled on Xavi...

Our golden boy, the next Messi, who got released from almost every club after Barca: Sporting Gijon, Hsv Hamburg, Las Palmas, Milan, Standard Liege, Heerenveen, Birmingham, Reading. This season he returned to a Croatian club, Rijeka, who are 8th on the table out of 10 clubs. But, he got fired...

I don't get this excuse. I mean, if you transfer 99% of players in the world to Pep, they'll play better. Every player in the world will play better under the best coach and in a well oiled machine. But 99% of players can't play in the perfect circumstances and they have to play in a mediocre...

It is mostly about money and SOME homegrown talent. Also, about the social impact of a certain country. For example, in India they play cricket, but India doesn't have strong social impact in the Western world, so nobody cares about cricket here. Yet, Usa and England are the two countries with...

Half of fans who watched him in Croatia, me included, from the first day said that he has a weak physique, low IQ, diva issues, professionalism issues. And that he is a one trick pony more or less. But he glided with the ball the same as Messi (similar to how Arthur's moves visually resembled...

I remember when Real signed Odegaard and Barca signed Halilovic, there were rumors that we had to pick between one of them because apparently we didn't have money (yet we had money for a fraud Neymar transfer, Coutinho, Dembele, Griezmann, Arda, Ferran etc). And we picked you know whom. Some...

Brozovic is the holder of the top2 spots of all time World cup distance covered per match. Previous World cup record was 16,3 kms covered by Brozovic in 2018' quarterfinals Croatia-Russia (a match went to extra time and penalties). This year he broke his own record in a round of 16 KO match vs...

More like the whole world cup than one game, but ok

Regarding refs on Man Utd-Man City match, it is clear that FA and refs "adjust" their views based on what they need in particular season. As someone already mentioned, FA probably wants Man Utd back, because they are the biggest English club who brings tons of money. And they will also push...

Ferran Torres has now gone 22 years without being a good footballer
