It's already been said but the NBA isn't much better, if at all. And yet NBA fans on the whole don't want more replay. I don't get it.

I learned 2 things from this match...

1. Lol fifa

2. Oscar gonna win golden ball

Do own goals count for golden boot? Marcelo could be a lock.

Modric, Rakitic, Olic, Mandzukic. You're crazy, this is not a terrible team by any means.

Willian needs to start ahead of Hulk. He'd offer more defensive solidity and not be complete ****e at the same time.

Hernanes or another creative midfielder (maybe even Ramires) needs to start ahead of Paulinho.

Fred sucks, so why not go something like?:

because hulk sucks even more?
fred at least can hold-up the ball and link-up play

The Croatian keeper has 112 caps and Cesar has 80. You'd expect better GKing with that experience. TBF, the Croat had a great save in the first half and nearly saved the penalty also.

Maybe national teams should have more variety in goal, though? Buffon has 140 caps. Iker has 154 caps for the national team, yet isn't even his club team's starter (and his club team's starting GK didn't even make the national team).

how many touches did Fred have today?

20

hulk 25
paulinho 31 is extremely low too in that positon

Hulk can't play CF. Better keep Fred because at least he is a good poacher. I hate Fred for the NT but there is no option. I would have called Pato(even though he hasn't been good) and/or Luis Fabiano fwiw.

Jefferson is the name of the goalie that should be in place of Julio Cesar.

Really impressed with Neymar today(especially first half). He really carried the team. Oscar great too.

Paulinho looks like this is his first game after a long vacation. Awful.

This team is not winning the World Cup unless they improve tremendously or there really is some major riggage going on.

For me a win with a blatant referee mistake like that completely takes the joy out of winning. Really FIFA, start fixing this ****.

guess you don't rate Jo either then?

Nope Jo does exactly one thing well which is winning balls on the air. Really sad to have those two fighting for a shirt that I grew up watching Romario and then Ronaldo crushing on.

Wrong thread

Oscar and Olic were both great.

LOL Ref
LOL goalies

63 more to go

you mean play like they did when they ran Spain?

Yes something like that to have a chance

hey guys I have mexico as sucking really, really hard

does anyone else have this as well?

Oh god true, but it made me immediately think of USA-Panama. That was epically crushing, then there was a second one after they had literally given up.

They were awful throughout qualification so seems reasonable.

Confirmed.

Good lord those announcers are awful.

Olic was gassed after ten. The heat was making him do some funky ****

hey guys I have mexico crushing really, really hard

does anyone else have this as well?
