Why is nobody talking about luis Enrique .. man has been underperforming. The Spanish squad isn't as bad as their results.. and they struggle to create clear cut chances. And they are easy to play through. They just dominate possession, but the opponents usually look more dangerous.

Englishisamust:
Waiting Eth do to dalot. Dalot really dey suprise me the seasonoo.

TrebleChamp:
I googled as you suggested, Paolo Rossi was 7th. A certain Giuseppe Meazza was rated Italy's greatest ever. My favourite is Baggio

LostMyZeal:


Baggio all the way boss

Their favorite 7 ballon'd crap artist has been modelling Baggio andMaradona's movess all through his career but of course they won't talk about it

afrodoc2:


There is a club option extension of 1 year so we still have him until 2024. I agree we need to get a long term extension sorted though. He has really developed over the past year and even more since ETH took over.

larride:


Use a week to plan whether they want to give him contract extension or what?

Cyberrex:


the fact that he scored the two goals in an inverted wing back position shows a lot more of what ETH wants his FBs to do, putting more bodies in the midfield and box, I'd like to see the inversion in a free flowing and high line situation, but for now Malacia is more deep into the IWB than him tho, dude mostly plays like a midfielder whenever we're attacking

timay1:


Spain will soon sack that one, depending on how he performs at the world cup.

They have good attackers in mid table laliga teams doing well, but he's not calling them.

Be like Louis get issue with plenty players.
E surprise me say e no gree call Cucurella to the team. His definitely joking with his job.

and that pedri, gavi, busquet midfield doesn't work, it doesn't work for barca also.. you have rodri, but still playing busquet.

Imagine playing alba, and azplicueta when Spain have good young energetic and faster fullbacks.

Expert17:


Attack/defense/Gk are the issues not Midfield. Busquets was one of the best players in the last tournament.

And if Busquets joins Man City, Rodri will be benched.

afrodoc2:



Exactly. How can you have 80% possession and the game ends 2-2 and then you have 75% possession only to lose 2-1?

larride:


In the whole of Spain they dont have any decent unknown striker?

afrodoc2:


That midfield works die. In their 5 matches in this tournament their possession stats has been 61%, 80%, 66%, 76%, and in yesterday's game that they lost it was 75%.
They are also averaging 3 more shots than their opponents.

The problem is that there isn't a single dependable world class player in their attack. Career bench warmers like Morata, Asensio, Sarabia are the ones they depend on to create and score goals for them.

O wa decidedly wrong nau!

You dun talk am finish





P.S They have no commanding CBs. Ex-Man City squad player Garcia is one of their chairmen at the bank.
