LOL how can you even compare him to Godin who works his backside of every game and is not too shabby on the ball either. However, unlike Pique, the art of defending is to defend and not get put on your backside in every one v one duel. He's only been getting away with it because every team that...

I don't know how warrants a starting place season in and season for club and country. Literally, his whole career is littered with comical errors. He's lucky, every team he plays for always has over 60% possession, Imagine if he had to put a defensive shift in which solid defenders do from time...

Has been shocking.

He's not, one touch passing to keep the momentum going and fancy footwork aside he's a liability.

He really does try to be too clever near his own penalty area too much for my liking. Quite a few times today Russia were nearly in courtesy of him over elaborating when there's really no need.

If Mbappe puts in worldies and wins it for France then he's in the reckoning. So many scenarios.

It's looking the end for me and the embrace with Mbappe was like the passing of the torch. Without doubt the best player in football history but his legs seem to have gone and it's increasingly becoming a tactical nightmare in terms of where to play so he doesn't have to defend much.

Absolutely this!

Granit Xhaka pretty much sums everything up really. Sometimes, I think Coutinho is a victim of his own quietness. Why would you even consider moving him to the right, it's a travesty, really...

It beggars belief why you would play him on the right when he's so good centre left.

He was poor but he never stopped trying not running. You tend to get rewarded for perseverance in the end.

What did Ronaldo actually do? A penalty he dived to win, a shot which a pub goalkeeper would have been disappointed not to save and a one per 3 season free kick goal he scored. I mean Deigo Costa was for more of a menace and played individually far better but no, it has to be about Ronaldo.

One look at their midfield and you wonder what all the fuss is about. Paulinho, Fernandinho and Casemiro, really? Clearly they are just gonna bore the opposition out and hope the boys up front do the damage.

The lack of speed is the biggest problem and out of all of them Busi is the slowest. Genius on the ball, liability without it these days.

Lol dudes like Gojira when he runs with the ball.

When Roberto was on there were 11 v 11 so Semedo was already disadvantaged numerically and besides Ronaldo was replaced by Asensio who is probably more direct than Ronaldo and doesn't drift centrally too.

Pay so much money and then stick him on the right, it's just limiting his threat by 50% at least.

I would prefer his teammate Dembele but I guess he's getting on a bit now.

I'm not trying to take credit but I said the same months ago on here. He's been something else this season.

He is the best player in the world this season, not the third.
