His name is balbec, mate

Very witty, Mac.

You mean Bac

The knockout rounds. Very poor, indeed.

Italy - from insipid strikers to playing for a draw against Uruguay.

Higuain - this guy should be doing better. He actually looks depressed, a little devoid of confidence. Him, Lavezzi and Cavani all thrived in the hotbed that is beautiful Naples, yet all 3 look pale shadows of themselves this past month.

The ex-Yugoslav teams - I expected more from Croatia and Bosnia especially.

The Africans again failing to break through.

A lot of big players have failed to live up their billing.

Hazard - did fuck all in the tournament.
Messi - hasn’t done anything in the knockout stages yet.
Ronaldo - did nothing as his team crashed out of the World Cup

Portugal

Italy. Brasil. The knockout stages. The refereeing.

Agreed-Belgium as a whole were fairly disappointing.

Best players in the tournament were generally defenders & lack of high scoring games once group stages finished.

Lack of quality technical midfield players & Brazil’s demise has been awful to watch when you consider the way they used to play the game.

Lack of memorable games such as England - Argentina back in 98, wasn’t enough high scoring games where both teams had a go.

I’d argue Italy get a pass just for Pirlo making a mockery of England. That was a magical night.
