chrisp65 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 That was a great World Cup. Has there been a WC in the last 30 years where less patio furniture was thrown around? There's something to be said for a murderous corrupt dictatorship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 its hard to know where to start... they awarded courtois the golden glove but he didnt make team of the tournament Lovren had a decent tournament but there were a few CBs who had a very good tournament young at LB when he was dreadful at times, hernandez was miles better than him paulinho they shoe horned neymar in just to get him in there, he had a very poor tournament when everything was there for him to establish himself as the number 1 superstar because they shoe horned neymar in they put mbappe up front, he didnt play that position once in 7 games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted July 17, 2018 Author Share Posted July 17, 2018 Apparently it was voted for by 'the public'. You can still vote for Goal of the Tournament if that sort of thing bothers you. The other Awards I missed but is this right? Golden Boot - Kane (ENG) Silver Boot - Griezmann (FRA) Bronze Boot - Lukaku (BEL) Golden Ball - Modric (CRO) Silver Ball - Hazard (BEL) Bronze Ball - Griezmann (FRA) Golden Glove - Courtois (BEL) Young Player - Mbappe (FRA) Fair Play - Spain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 My team of tournament would be: Courtois Triippier Varane Vida Hernandez Kante Modric Matuidi Mbappe Suárez. Hazard (now I know Suárez didn’t go that far, but his play was superb throughout). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 i think the number 9 gives anyone a problem because none of them shone pickford Trippier - Varane - Godin - Hernandez kante modric - pogba de bruyne mbappe - hazard pickford over courtois because of his penalty save and save of the tournament vs columbia Vrsaljko was better than trippier in open play but trippiers set pieces were brilliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 My XI is Olsen (not great keeper tournament) Trippier Varane Godin Lucas Kante Modric Mbapoe Hazard Peresic Griezmann (no great strikers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czechlad Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 lol definitely not Pickford or Kane. Maguire was good, but I think Lovren deserves more credit that him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) that ones worse!! marcelo is probably the best LB in the world but did nothing, injured for at least 1 game, Thiago Silva at RB, ronaldo, i wouldnt have kane anywhere near it either according to that coutinho is the 2nd best player at the WC too, liverpool fans ruining another public vote...
