Thought it was soft myself but I am biased against that little fuck knuckle Di Maria.

Messi has grabbed this one by the scruff of the neck. Been brilliant so far.
Harsh considering the circumstances I thought that he left or was allowed to leave Utd. Still he's the one ripping the French a new one.

How on earth did we lose to France, they are getting run ragged. No surprise they have made changes. They are making Di Maria look like a superstar!!

Nah. Acted the cunt pretty much from day 1. Didn’t want to be there and made it clear, sulking, faking injury. Then went AWOL to force a move and has badmouthed the club at every opportunity. Hope he snaps his ACL.

Best bet for the French now is to let Argentina get comfortable, let them switch off the intensity by 10%.

If they do that and are able to start picking their pockets further upfield there is a lot of space for Mbappe to use against the two centre halves.

A shame aguero had to retire. He would have fitted into this team still

Clearly France raised their game for the England match (rivalry etc.). They were lucky against Morocco and have been run ragged by Argentina. That midfield was non existent for the second goal.

A carbon copy of Valdano's second goal in the 1986 final.
