He really isn't you know

Nice article from Sterling today:

Really enjoyed that read, what a really nice guy....
I like the bit at the bottom

"I’m telling you right now …

England is still a place where a naughty boy who comes from nothing can live his dream".

He really isn't you know

Shit is a big overstatement.

However KdB puts the ball on his foot 10 times a game the same way Lingaard did the other night. People always questioning his output for England and I just feel like, yep, if you put another 9 of those in for him he might end up with 1 or 2 goals a game.

 

[b3h]

Change of keeper for Brazil then

Again he really isn't

Paulinho continuing the run of dire South American central midfielders here. He's hopeless.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I still find it staggering that he's playing for Barcelona. He was beyond atrocious for Spurs and he doesn't look to have improved.

pretty weak from Brazil so far. so many poor touches and passes. they look like they’ve got problems with their boots at times. not in sync with each other and neymar falling over at every opportunity then putting in a crap free kick. Pele must wonder whatever happened to the beautiful game.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I think they've got this front three wrong. Gabriel Jesus is a cracking player but I think they'd be way better off with Firmino up there, he brings others into the game so much better. Also Willian is way too hit and miss to be a nailed on starter for Brazil.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Better already now they've got Douglas Costa on. Proper threat on both sides.

 

[b3h]

I'd put Bobby in for Jesus next game. He'll probably come on for him in this

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Based on what I've seen in these two games and the friendly at Elland Road, I'm glad Stale didn't get his wish to bring Bolanos here.

 

[Johnny75]

Brazil going old skool 4-4-2.

 

[EdgeOfTheAlps]

Neymar = wanker

 

[b3h]

"it's a foul and a dive" love it

 

[Nando]

Fuck off, Neymar. Awful.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Right call. That isn't a pen.
