Nope, skill players have not been evident, great goals in scarce supply, and few good teams. Blame the ball a lot though, can't be controlled when it's coming at you pacily, which negates skill, all in my opinion, of course.
It's a complete mystery to me why Fabregas doesn't start. Busquets doesn't really ever seem to do anything other than pass sideways/to the opposition and foul people.Some irony in an Arsenal player adding a bit of directness to the Spanish play...
Xabi Alonso is the one who shouldn't be starting.
Don't really care who shouldn't be starting, but Fabregas should be starting without a shadow of doubt.
GF nothing if not predictable.
Whole thing lacked a certain something, tbh...
The guy's a joke defender at SPL level. I wouldn't slag guys like Stilian Petrov or Henrik Larsson, who were exceptional players, but Braafheid is horrendous.
Nil nil because Holland are more interested in playing rugby.
I'd almoast forgot how bad, dirty & spawny the Argies where in the 90 tournament make this dutch team look like the 74 version. 90 probably just edges out this 1 as the worst tournament I've seen.
Been a couple of good saves as well, but you're pretty much right, yep.
