Cesc as CF again? come on del busque.....

by RealGunner Sat Jun 23, 2012 7:28 pm

confirmed

France starting line up: Lloris, Reveillere, Rami, Koscielny, Clichy, M'VIla, Malouda, Cabaye, Ribery, Debuchy, Benzema

France can play like Italy did against Spain, and France will probably not run out of petrol at the end. It will be a difficult game for Spain I think.

Big bet attempted by Blanc. Debuchy right midfielded while playing Reveillere is a big surprise.

Happy with Nasri and Ben Arfa not on the pitch

A right winger in the 4-3-3.

Very interesting formations... 4-6-0 again for Spain is risky from Del Bosque, we'll see how it does.

This may be Barca vs Chelsea all over again.Stupid VDB not playing a real striker.

Prediction: Arbeloa to keep Ribery in his pocket like always

by jibers Sat Jun 23, 2012 9:04 pm

Spain are just a different level tbh.

France aren't really getting anywhere currently, they need to make some changes.

Busquets stamping on Cabayé and Cabayé gets a yellow :bow:

Busquets master of diving :bow:

by Art Morte Sat Jun 23, 2012 9:41 pm

Ramos yellow was ridiculous. He has to stand somewhere ffs.

Chances and shots are a rare sight in this game but I guess that's all right.

by guest7 Sat Jun 23, 2012 9:54 pm

I think Benzema is doing OK. Clearly involved and something always happens when he has the ball for France.

Xabi has been great so far. Cabaye is invisible, clearly needs to get more involved.

by Swanhends Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:11 pm

F*ck being involved in the buildup he needs to get himself involved on the end of one of Riberys many dangerous near post crosses that are finding no one because Benz is outside the box for some reason :facepalm:

by dronte Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:32 pm

I can definitely say Spain play one of the most boring football in the Euros :bow:

And France are playing terribly.
I'd say Benzema is the flop of the match

by silver Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:35 pm

God Benzema was terrible. How many times did he dribble and lose the ball...

Nasri should have started. Dont even know what Malouda's role was

by jibers Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:37 pm

Have to admit Alonso was amazing today. Ramos has changed my mind. Twice the defender Pique is tbh.

by Swanhends Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:40 pm

Benz

Malouda

Spains play could put someone to sleep faster than anesthesia :facepalm:

by Art Morte Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:47 pm

Spain are efficient to a point where it has indeed become a little boring. But all in all it was a solid performance from them, didn't give France any opportunity to win.

by Adit Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:51 pm

Ramos just stopped and laughed at anything french attack threw at him .

Great performance and great covering for Alba.

by Gemini Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:56 pm

Spain's defence is underrated, it's their best strength imo.

by gondov Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:57 pm

Great perfomance from Spain.

Recent history has shown us that you dont have to play nice to win, so they are doing what they have to, inorder to get the result.

Teams cant expect spain to play attacking football when they flood players in their own half Very Happy

by Gemini Sat Jun 23, 2012 11:00 pm

Nah they play nice, it's up to the other teams to stop it and they can't. You can't blame them for keeping the ball so well.
If teams opened up and attacked spain they would probably get humiliated

by Le Samourai Sat Jun 23, 2012 11:02 pm

Ribery was dispossesed 10 times....caught offside 8....

Arbeloa can't handle that Quarter final: Spain vs France discussion - Page 4 Le_210
