@MiguelDelaney@ballymorechris South Korea got to semis. Turkey too. Average German side tot he final. Brazil head and shoulders above all else then but rest of the field were not that better than us
Rice has taken 16 free kicks since he scored against Real Madrid and not scored.
He took 12 before that game and never scored.
His had 23 assists in 8 years in the Premier League.
The overhype for this player who runs around a lot and gesticulates for the cameras is staggering.
@brucemillington Was rubbish last night. English media keep telling he’s this, he’s that. Big game there for the taking last night and he was anonymous. King of the safe side wards 5 yard ball, that’s about it
There’s not a cat in hell’s chance everyone would be singing our praises postmatch like this if Manchester United had 24.7% possession in a major final.
Football wins. Can’t play like Stoke and expect to win the biggest trophy in football. Takes a special club to do that never mind 6 times. Set pieces, long throws and time wasting doesn’t win the European cup. Allez Les Bleus
