I get a sense that they feel its their time right now. Brilliant performance, their shape was flawless all night. Well drilled side who will take some stopping imo. They have so much energy, strength and invention in that side. Their pressing game was forcing Argentina to buckle all game, even at 2 and 3-0 in the 90th minute they were chasing down hunting the ball in packs. Ruthless, shame Bilic is with ITV this tournament; wanted to see his reaction Was waiting for the Croatians to tire with all that pressing. By about 75mins I noticed Perisic and Mandzukic looked done in but Modric and Rakitic kinda took over the pressing duties and the other two tucked in. Modric looked like he could have run for another hour at the end. Their movement was excellent and the way they can swap roles. Like you say very well drilled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaJ100 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Who else thinks we should sell the whole squad and just import the Iceland team and management wholesale? We already have one player and the rest probably won't cost more than 10 million apart from sigurdsson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penguin Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Musa is atrocious all he has is pace. Real strange decision to start him today, can’t see many oppurtunites to get in behind the Icelandic defence. Would have thought the more physical Ighalo would be more effective as it all seems very much back to goal stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
