Euro 2016

[Horatio]

Spains weakness is the lack of goalscorers, lack of a world class striker.

Or the fact Czech Republic doesn't leave its own half.

 

[ThwiX]

The Don with the passes.

 

[MasChe]

Iniesta still the best midfielder in the world.

If rested properly, then maybe. Think Modric is quite better right now.

 

[Barcaman]

Maybe he heard we don't want him because of his age.

Czech aren't parking the bus that well, but luckily Spain has no-one as determined as Iniesta upfront.

They loosened up the later phase of first half.

 

[ThwiX]

Spain had some good chances, most of them created by Iniesta. Can't afford to have Morata up front to waste them.

Cech is doing a great job though.

 

[Morten]

In a match like this i guess the midfield is ok, but i think a midfield with Cesc and an ageing Iniesta might have problems against a more pacey team. Koke would probably balance the midfield better than Cesc.

 

[Chainsaw]

I couldn't watch the first half properly. How bad was Cesc?

 

[MasChe]

If rested properly, then maybe. Think Modric is quite better right now.

Not Pogba?

 

[ThwiX]

Not Pogba?

He's in top 5, but needs a season or two more to be all the way up there. That was my totally unbiased option for once. Can't stand Modric, but he is just too good right now.

 

[BBZ8800]

I don't know about you guys, but I am getting headaches from this (sterile) Tiki-Taka.

It was awesome and lethal a few years ago, but now it just doesn't work (that good) anymore.

Spain will have huge problems and will probably get knocked out by some stronger teams who can counterattack well.
Like Germany, Portugal.

Imo, even Croatia will cause them huge problems on counters.

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

Iniesta, Kroos and Modric are on one level. Guys like Pogba, Gündogan, Marchisio or Koke right after them.

That is considering Busi and Verratti for another position.
