@EwanMacKenna International football is about solidity and bone fide superstars in attack.

Spain have one.
Argentina have one.
England have two.
France have three.

And so, France will likely win out.

@MattClark_08 The referee owes the explanation. Paraguay kept thugging because it wasn't sorted by the referee. Happy days for them.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@RobertoRojas97 Paraguay did what the referee allowed them to do. If he'd booked one of them early for one of the many kicks, elbows or barges, it would've all been fine.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@umirf1 Nobody expects Paraguay to go toe-for-toe. But it's not a choice between that and thuggery.

You can be 'in-your-face' without crossing the line into cheating and violence.

Having said that Paraguay only did what the ineffectual, cowardly referee allowed them to do.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@getnickwright He is.

Anyone with another opinion is coping, or a nostalgia merchant.

[Dan Thomas @DanThomasESPN]

Cape Verde have had more possession than Arsenal did in the UCL final.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@BarryOnHere The greatest thing MJ ever did for his legacy was going out early so many times.

And I think MJ is the GOAT.

If LeBron had just failed to get a couple of his bum Cavs teams to the Finals, you'd be shocked to see how many would think it's closer between them.

@piersmorgan Kahn
Cafu
Beckenbauer
Moore
Carlos
Matthaus
Zidane
Maradona
Messi
Cruyff
Pele

Any team without Pele, Messi and Beckenbauer is null and void. Genuinely.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@drsportsmedia They've absolutely lost their minds with this title.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@TheTennisLetter So unless the conditions are still, as if indoor, she turns useless because she can't massacre the ball at will.

Tennis has fallen off something fierce. A no-talent whack-a-ball merchant, like so many nowadays. No guile. No adaptability.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@AFTVMedia Rice 8 is absolutely wild. Like, incredible. He's absolute teflon.

Hincapie and Gabriel clearly the standouts, with Havertz deserving a decent score for the goal, and MLS had an excellent game too.

The Rice propaganda is absolutely shameless.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@SkySportsNews This just isn't true.

Arteta chooses to focus on defensive spacing and discipline. Until Arteta changes 'safety first' they won't be better in attack. And that's fine.

Saka, Gyokeres, Trossard, Eze, Odegaard, Havertz aren't bums.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@MiguelDelaney Better attackers won't solve the attacking issues. It's far more about where his emphasis is. It's also not like Saka, Odegaard, Trossard, Eze, Havertz and Gyokeres are bums.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@tobyasky It's quite simple.

He says it shouldn't be given, but he's seen them given in the past. There is nothing confusing at all.

Same as the Saka handball that SHOULDN'T be given, but we've seen them given.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@FabrizioRomano You could have.

And it would've been wrong.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@younasri It's simple, Madueke hooks his arm and falls.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@StevenMcinerney If i could've handpicked one guy ro miss in that fashion and at that stage...

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@AFTVMedia Noni hooked his arm and fell you maniacs.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@AFTVMedia Two Arsenal mids against a team whose strength is midfield domination is wild.

It's Rice-Vitinha-Neves. And it's not close. But I get it. It's the only position he could remotely argue to get a 6th Arsenal player in over 5 PSG.

[Alex Rousseau @RousseauAl]

@RealSkipBayless You said Durant ran out of gas when he went out to the Bucks with the Nets.
