10 years of FIFActually Italia was shite even before Mancini came in charge, and I wouldn't judge them much for tonights game since their opponent has superior quality and is one of very few favourites to win the upcoming WC.
France's quality will make difference in the tournament, they have such a competitive team.
Though Balotelli is one level above the rest of other players from Italian NT.

10 years of FIFDembele was great, Ousmane Dembele :work:
Just logged in to Quote this!
He was a fucking rock at Stuttgart, No Matter If rb, LB, RM, cm or cb. Him and skriniar at the Central Back would be really really scary in the future.

10 years of FIFForum SupporterThe difference in players quality between Italy and france is sad. Italy is literally a mid-table Serie A team like Sampdoria, while France have top players scattered around Europe's most prestigious clubs. It's a big warning when your most talented player is a failure baby who plays for Nice.
Of course Mancini is the cherry on the top of this mediocrity.

10 years of FIFIts because Teams like Inter prefer to give a 19 year old from South America a shot for 20-30 million before giving one of their youth team players one.

10 years of FIFForum SupporterCan't blame Inter when Italian clubs ask 40m for players like Verdi and Politano.

10 years of FIFI completely forgot about Brazil-Croatia game today and missed the first half. Brozo has came in the second half meanwhile Perisic has been in the starting line-up.
Though Brazil is dominating the game so far, and Neymar scored an awesome goal.

10 years of FIF1st half was boring anyway , not a single shot on goal i believe.
Unfortunately Brasil is too Neymar dependent. They have a sick first touch , sick passing quality but Neymar is the only one who makes them a goal scoring threat.
Croatia on the other way is always disappointing. With the quality on their disposal i always expect Croatia and Belgium to do smth more...

10 years of FIFNothing wrong with being too dependent on superstar players like Neymar. Brazil's team is a complete package nowadays, much better to what they have been in past few years.
I kinda disagree with Neymar being their only goalscoring threat for them. Players like Willian, Coutinho, Gabriel Jesus, Firming and ect, are able to win games on their own sometimes, but of course when you have a Neymar in your team, you can be out shadowed easily.

except when they can't play... i'm pretty sure brazil-germani 1-7 would have had a different outcome with thiago silva and neymar. they would have probably lost even in that case but i guess with a different margin

10 years of FIFBrazil's team has fell deep down psychologically in that game which has caused them to get smashed. The expectations were pretty high for Brazil's team since they hosted that WC, therefore their first goal conceded and even second has hit them so bad.
You don't take examples of such games because that was more than just footballing issue.

i think it's a good example because it certainly is the case of a team deeply affected by the absence of its two best players. terrible defense and non-existent attack and it clearly showed of they missed especially thiago silva.
