Quarter Finals

[Bohemian Toffee]

If van Dijk wasn’t there getting publicly mugged off then I’d probably agree

Fair point, but I can't abide a poor winner. I didn't mind Argentina up to that point, but they can do one now.

Was sticking up for Argentina because of Virgil van Pegleg, but I hope Croatia smash them.

England and France are the pick of the remaining teams. No small games now!

 

[ChesterBlue]

Had the draw of the gods, and van Gaal squeezed everything out of the players he had. Have to figure the equalizer was some nonsense van Gaal had in his back pocket for when he absolutely had to have a goal.

Seeing De Jong at the World Cup has been shocking. Barcelona have destroyed that player

 

[Walken]

Could have been all sorts said on the pitch to be fair. If I scored the winning pen vs the [Poor language removed] I’d be t-bagging all their players before giving their keeper a dirty sanchez

I don't think you would, its Aldridge behaviour, lowest of the low.

All sorts always gets said on the pitch, if you win celebrate. If you celebrate by getting in the face of someone who has just lost after an exhausting 120 mins then that makes you a rat. There is nothing lower in sport than a bad winner. Barry ferguson, aldridge, emlyn hughes. We are talking about the very worst characters

They love that stuff in Argentina mate, it’s a cultural thing in football I think they even have a word for it, the more infamous and snidey the better.

Looks like the Dutch were copying the 1998 Argentinians (sorry if already posted) vs England

They ball their eyes out the moment anyone does anything to them, they only love it one way. They aren't that good of a team so pretty soon its going to be the other way

Just horrible that, someone should have sparked one of them. I've no beef with someone being a bad loser but cannot abide bad winners. Credit to Messi for not joining in by the looks of it. The argies are clearly Qatars team now, hope they get nowhere near it.

Messi seems to have had a bit more class thankfully

The myth of Van Dijk takes another blow.

Let's have it right: he played his best football at Celtic in an ale house league; played very well for S'ton for a couple of seasons and then slotted into a halfways decent Liverpool team to hang on for a couple of trophies.

He's better than what we could get, for sure. But he's basically Arsenal or Spurs class.

He's a liability now. Hopefully he stays at Liverpool for years to come.

Unlucky VVD, something, something Pickford.

I guess maybe the Dutch following the Argentine penalty takers up the pitch is ok though

Good on him, nice to see that. He was concentrating solely on celebrating with his team in the pics aswell, unlike the players that just got carried by him.

Well aye, I’m being facetious and the Argentina keeper was an embarrassment of course. They won’t win the cup regardless
