Them winning the midfield battle against Argentina is no surprise. Their lack of number 9 and crap defence is why they won't go too far IMO, quarters I reckon. Rakatic and Modric just incredible players to watch though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously these Managers understand the game on another level to us but I have no idea what he's thinking there, so obvious they would be dominated.

Ronaldo can play a lot of different roles, where Messi relies on quality around him. The constant Ronaldo/Messi stuff is tiring, but to suggest Ronaldo can play more roles than Messi is just outright wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
