    How the **** does one nation get 40k tickets for a World Cup quarter final?

    Luka Modrić is a different gravy.

    I know he's notionally recognised as one of the best players in the world but he doesn't get the adulation he deserves.


    His understanding of the past 5 seconds and the next 5 seconds on a football pitch is peerless.

    Instead of all covering their mouths when they want to speak, why don't they just shut the **** up and play football?

    If Luka was a haddock he'd be absolutely smothered with curry sauce.






    He's that good.

    So many times they look beaten early in a game. Japan had them on the ropes, just like we did in the first half in 2018. But they always hang on and eventually strike back. I don't like them but they're seriously impressive.

    On the flip side, Brazil were so, so naiive to allow that equaliser to happen. 116th minute, 1-0 up and they lose the ball on halfway with 6 players ahead of it, leaving their defenders with a 4v4 counter attack. People always want to see more attackers and a more attacking system, but that was a great example of why it can be foolish, especially in knockout football, to be so gung ho. If Croatia had that 1-0 lead they'd have shut the game down and held onto it.
