Sorry but Messi plays football on a different planet. He’s making a World Cup final look like a walk about.

He is incredible. Best player there has ever been! How many players in the history of the game can make you smile watching the things he does with a football?

Double change already from France

Hope Gareth is watching - this is how we should've gone at France.

Gone are the days of negative football at the top level.

Couldn't agree more. They're poor in defence and have no depth to their squad. We should have run them ragged in the first half then changed the front 4 and done the same again in the 2nd. Instead we got to watch Stones and Maguire passing it sideways at a snails pace for 45 minutes.

It’s a huge cliche, but one team wants to win this much more than the other.

VK needs to make sure that our players aren’t given Honey and Ginger the night before a big game.

Don't forget Shaw - loves a pass back inside to Maguire

Oh and of course Declan Rice who loves passing to his centre halves - then doesn't make himself available for a return pass

Cmon Argentina! Have them in the sweepstake at work for £160

I hope so to, I got a nice £10 double on at 76/1 for Messi to be golden Boot winner and Argentina to win the World cup

It’ll be interesting to see if Argentina have learned their lesson from the Netherlands game.

7 minutes added time. In this tournament the added times have been very long. Are we missing something in England?

Pretty much every goal has been celebrated with the entire squad running onto the pitch for a big pile-on.

the ref yesterday did, Boro wasted 30 seconds on every throw and goal kick yet he gave 1 minute in the first half

You’d think if the EFL did this then time wasting might start to disappear

Argentina have been so dominant Martinez hasn't needed to start his time wasting yet

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sun Dec 18, 2022 4:20 pm

why did De Paul not have to go off the pitch after getting treatment ?

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sun Dec 18, 2022 4:35 pm

Brighton will do well to keep hold of Mcallister after today

He’s had an excellent tournament.

Between him, Trossard and Caicedo they’ve probably got 150m of saleable assets.

Penalty to France

Pen France.

If anyone can bottle this from here it’s the Argies.

Rileybobs · Post by **Rileybobs** » Sun Dec 18, 2022 4:41 pm

They’ll miss this based on the performance so far.

Game on. Good chance this Argentina side will revert to type and try to spoil the last 15 mins and they could be in trouble.

so strange how Argentina have played this second half, why didn't they just continue like they did in the first half instead of defending, bonkers
