Look, there have been 11 goals between the two final games of the tournament, I'm really not sure how much more you want |

I think the question needs to be asked if this Argentina team is the worst ever side to play in a world cup final. Or at least the worst performance. Not a single shot, even off target, in 90 minutes, is nothing short of abysmal |

Growing up we played a version where we used tennis scoring. So 1:1 3 darts each, high score got the point. Tennis Darts or Dennis Tarts depending on how much we'd been drinking. |

Yeah to be honest, was it a good world cup for us? Croatia had one fantastic half of football, overall a very good performance Drew with Ghana, not great. Workmanlike against Panama, fine Really struggled against DR Congo, Kane got us out of jail Mexico, good performance really up against the odds, but honestly, we should have lost that game and would have done if they hadn't decided their best route to goal for the last 20 minutes was slinging crosses into the box and trying to beat our 6ft7 defender in the air Norway was fine, but really that game was a coin flip and we just sat back and got lucky they didn't score in ET. Argentina another coin flip and then just brutal brutal decision to sit back again. Who in the squad could you actually say had a better than average world cup overall? Bellingham certainly, Kane did, although really struggled in last couple of games. Thought Djed Spence was great. Other than that I'm struggling a bit. Compare that to France who bar one game against Spain looked dominant, or Spain who really haven't looked in danger of losing a single game they've played |

To be honest I don't think there's anyone in our squad we shouldnt be selling if a £10m+ offer came in That's actual £10m though, not £10m in Nourry-math including the value of the rest of his contract multiplied by the square root of the contract length divided by the phase of the moon |

There's 10 different ways he could have made subs to help. If your players have 17 minutes after the goal and had 12% possession then that's 7 minutes after you could have done something and the solution isnt "put more defenders on" Your job as a manager is to put his players in a position to succeed. If you think he did that then we're watching a different game. We're well past the Harry Redknapp days of "fackin run around a bit" and put it all on the players |

His post match comments are going to condemn him. Absolute arrogance. Refuses to say he made a mistake, pivots to saying millions of other [armchair] coaches who know better. That'll land well. English media well known for taking that kind of arrogance well |

All 12 people watching that game will be very disappointed to see the French second team beat however many centre backs Tuchel can cram onto the pitch |

They absolutely deserved the win in the end but they really hadn't shown anything until we decided to stop playing. That was there for the taking. |

Our plan at the end was to get the ball to the right back and have him put crosses in. Thank God we brought a plethora of legitimate right backs with two working hamstrings to the world cup. |

He's never played a first team game for us, we may or may not come to regret the decision but £500k is a lot in that context |

This gets the headline because it's Trump, and it's a ridiculous decision to overturn it even if the on field decision was harsh, but FIFA put themselves in this position based on their transparent attempt to get Ronaldo to play in the world cup by deferring that ban for literally no reason. Once that was done I'm not surprised the floodgates are opening |
