William Carvalho is having a fine game here. Great ball over the top there

A good man to batter defenders with a few elbows and make himself a nuisance, not really much of a footballer.

He’s basically like a really fit, more mobile Kevin Doyle with a nasty streak to him.

He isn’t even doing that any more. He is an effective player on form but he offers nothing at the moment. Surely Kalinic would be a better bet

Good summation mate, as technical as the Croatians are it’s amazing that’s their best option at 9.

You get the feeling Portugal are going to nick this. They are getting on top in midfield

The dumbest professional footballer i have seen in a while. And competition is stiff.

This game is crying out for a goal.

Trevor Welch and major international tournament football go together like strawberries and cream, gin and tonic, or wine and cheese.

I’ll raise you this guy.

Renato Sanches is incredibly physically strong for an 18 year old.

Still and all its nice to see a game with a shot load of players who actually have a decent touch.

Both sides have very good defenders and both are on form. Think there has been an exhibition in defending here really. Very tactically aware botg teams as well. May not be exciting, but arguablly the highest level of technical ability in any game so far.

He’s the Mathieu Bastareaud of association football.

Fuck i’m in trouble here.

Walcott isn’t quite the pussy though. Brainless ya, but a bit tougher. A bit only.

Very valid point…but a couple of goals would open up one these defenses, and make for a more entertaining spectacle.

Been very few times either keeper has been bothered so far.

@Nembo_Kid i’ll stick and let sidney decide

For an 18 year old, he’s physical strength is exceptional on the ball.

Oh ya. You are dead right. In fact at this stage i would prefer extra time, an early Portugal goal and then 29 minutes of madness.

Cos as you say if it opens up it could be a belter.

I think Fernando of Manchester City is both the most brainless footballer and the biggest pussy I’ve seen play in the last year.

Kevin Mirallas would also be a contender.
