I fell asleep and woke up with 15 minutes to go. Modric must have played a blinder before I woke up because he might as well have not been on the pitch in the period I saw.

I have no idea why Bif is loved so much, especially now more than ever.
He's reached the ultimate meme level and it seems everyone has just accepted him as a de facto cult god.
It makes no sense in any way.
But I'm fully behind it tbfh.
Bif .
Women wanna be him and men wanna fuck him.

The narrative created in the post game by the pundits has been hilarious.
"Oh poor Croatia, they were hard done, France were so lucky, Croatia were the better team, that handball is a disgrace"
The penalty was a bit harsh but I don’t think the balance of play was so heavily in Croatia’s favour to say the best team lost. Just sounds like glorious failure to me from a nice and functional team but with no real and consistent threat in the final third. I don’t think they would have got anywhere near the final without being in the pub side of the draw and even en route to this final they made it a real struggle going to penalties and extra time in every game.
Meh, ordinary team with a few tidy players.
France are deserving winners.

Was here for a good chunk of his career and always gave it 100% in every game which is more than can be said for most of our players. Not his fault that he's limited.
Plus he's a thoroughly likeable & decent guy. Not like he left on bad terms either like Cesc, RVP, Nasri, Cashley etc etc ....... don't see why we can't feel happy for the guy.
I have no affinity for Giroud at all but I could probably say the same for a lot of Arsenal players over the past 10 years. Maybe it’s because I’m older now and have no interest in hero-worshipping footballers like I did when I was a kid.
