Brazil have individuals, who do not play as a team.

It’s fucking mind bending stuff, I know.

They are congenitally incapable of accepting that Brazil are not gods and can be beaten by a decent time. This has been the case for pundits for years.

Salah too. De Bruyne would have been shit under Mourinho.

I think Gabby Yorath is even more nauseating than Lineker.

They still think Brazil have a mixture of Pele, Garrincha, Carlos Alberto, Zico, Socrates, Ronaldinho and Ronaldo.

NQ is right about hype on this one.

Someone hauled off, Firmino on.

KDB is the type of player I want to see at Arsenal in that 10 role.

Yeah it's a bizarre one. He has a cynical view of football yet will vociferously defend Ozil who represents everything he rails against: overpaid, over pampered and under-delivering.

Hazard was in, hit it first time!

Alderweireld wipes out Paulinho, booked.
