World Cup 2018

[jairzinho]

The 4-3-3 with Dembele-Mbappe-Greizmann won’t work against parked buses or teams playing deep wit 2 lines of four.

 

[Yannik]

Barca players having a horror show in the WC

Alba was decent.

 

[Sorin]

Yeah, besides a score altering error, he was pretty decent. /s

 

[Joan]

Pretty decent game from the ref overall. And wasn't easy.

True. Probably the best performance by non European team so far. Uruguay wasn't good.

 

[serghei]

Barca players don't get too excited in the groups. They will unleash the full power when it matters most.

 

[Joan]

Busquets was good.

What?

 

[Hamzah]

Germany
All rounders
Good technique
Good muscles
Multi dimensional in attack
Good mental strength
Not too much clownish fancy tricks
High IQ

Well said

 

[Sorin]

Kante is their best midfielder.

Benzema is tall and strong but never plays with those attributes, he’s all technique and passing so your points invalid.

If you play a short false nine:
He won't be in the box for tapins
He won't drag two defenders in the box
You can't play some crosses to create a havoc

When you play Giroud/Benzema/Costa, you can use all these weapons.
France looked better in the box and with more sense once when a true Cf, Giroud, stepped in.

Playing with a false nine in 2018, potentially brings a lot of matches with a sterile attack if an opponent parks the bus.

Argentina team in: Aguero starts. Meza starts.

 

[Hamzah]

Liverpool play with a false nine and struggle against buses

 

[Sorin]

Does the grass on the pitch seem bad to anyone else? Looks a little too long and dry.

Argentina team in: Aguero starts. Meza starts.

It’s been official since at least yesterday. Biglia is a big worry for me.
