Isn't this the same way Rodri won Euro2024 Golden Ball? How many MOTMs Rodri get for Euro then?
If I get started on this whole Rodri debacle, the conversation go drag pass all these ones wey una dey do for here.

I'll just stick to what I said earlier which is for me, I dont think Golden ball is awarded for who dominates the World cup final,

There were certainly better players that had better claim for me if I'm judging by the entire tournament than Rodri.

Thought Golden Ball refers to Player of the tournament, not best player in the final.

Recency bias as always in these sort of decision making. And to be fair, It was a complete no show for Messi and Argentina in this final game.

Should have been Messi though - He had 5 MOTM in this world cup, was higher than every single player in the tournament. Could have also been a befitting ending for him but it's alright, he's gotten it before

Morgan did his best work at LW season before last. There is nothing that says he must hug touchline.

We don't have 3 good centre backs nor a single reliable wingback

I am not willing to tolerate Estevao/Quenda being benched for an extra mid centre back and Granit Xhakha which is settling for run of the mill

We are not Sunderland or Leverkusen that Adenola Lookman trashed. Alonso should be guided.
Didnt watch him last season as I no too dey watch other premier league games like that.

But I dont think that'll be a good use of him from what I saw so far in the world cup, I dont like that he dribbles into traffic a lot, - not an effective dribbler and not sure he'll do well on the wings. Infact I had to google his lost possession stats as I was typing this and I got the confirmation I needed attached. he's still a young guy though and hopefully he improves

Anyway, lets see what the plans are for defenders, maybe there are really good plans for those as nothing has yet changed for me

Ibime:
Morgan will play left, Palmer will play centre, Estevao right

That's if Alonso doesn't bring his useless 3-4-3 formation which seems likely with his pursuit of Xhaka

Morgan and Palmer are great friends from Man City academy so symbiosis is there already
But this should be obvious.

He's most likely a Left-hand side AM in a 3-4-2-1.

That is the only thing that makes sense except you want him as a touchline winger

Thomas Tuchel about to carry England to their second highest ever finish in the World Cup.

Maybe he didnt do it in style but he did it anyway. Trust the ungrateful clo**ns not to appreciate what he's done.

But he did it anway and they'll get their silverware courtesy of him.

It changes nothing though. Finishing third isn’t England's highest finish at the world cup. Facts on ground is that they've won it before.
Yeah, yeah.

I'm sure you mean the 1966 right?

That tournament doesnt count as it was so controversial and boycotted by most countries, no single african nation participated sef.

Anyway, in my lifetime, this is the highest finish, so we no count 1966

Are you joking bro? PICKORD has been a starting goalie in the PL for more than 10 years.

He Is the 2nd gk with the most cleansheets in the pl for the past 3 seasons with a club that isnt a top 6 side.

Starting goalie for England since the 2018 World Cup if I'm not mistaken.

When Rice is ready, he'll produce the attached image below, he should also do so whilst winning player of the year from DM, Until then he's not ready.

Like I said and just like the tweet up there reads, it is towards the end of his time at both clubs.

Cant be arsed to put in a proper shift if I know my time is up at a club. Your Maresca did the same thing last season.

Let him carry all the Brazilian chicks he can get, he's earned it

I will always Stan the man who saved us from the shackles of Ibime’s lampfraud, turned corporate shoe Rudiger into a world class beast, slow Jorginho into a world superstar, returned us to one of our most competitive era by beating Pep 3 times in a row.

Anyone who doesn’t rate him is a fake fan.
The revisionism is shocking.

Ibime get mind say na Kante carry am. Another person said it was a fluke season.

Something we all lived through and watched. My own is to wait till he hopefully beats France in 3rd place and then celebrate him as the first and only coach to deliver a silverware for England in the World cup, Just like Jorginho is the first and only player from Chelsea to win the European Player of the Year.

Cant collect the medals from them even if they rewrite history. Ungrateful English fans grin

Tuchel is a lazy man. He doesn't watch football. Too busy chasing Brazilian girls

PSG complained about his work ethic bitterly. He came to Chelsea, Kante carried him. His laziness showed in his transfer dealings, chasing washed and useless players like Koulibaly, Aubameyang he worked with a decade before, Fofana for crazy money etc. Every transfer was a nightmare from those mentioned to Sterling, Lukaku etc and shows his laziness on how he just picks players he saw years ago

His laziness showed again today. He must be the only man who hasn't watched how Scaloni drops Messi to the right, the moomoo vacated all pressure on the ball on that side, allowing Messi to spam crosses unhindered for 30 mins straight. PSG used to complain a lot and were shocked that he doesn't study opponents, relying instead on instincts and it showed in this Argentina game that the man hasn't done his homework. He is literally just enjoying the good life of the money football brings and doesn't have the work ethic again.

Very lazy man. It was at Chelsea in summer 2022 we found he's been chasing Brazilian chicks upandan and divorcing his wife while recommending dinosaurs as transfer targets. He went to Bayern and continued that laziness, asking them to chase a 28 year old Paulinha he remembered from Premier League for up to £50m while letting Gravenberch go for peanuts. At one stage Fulham was quoting £80m and the moomoo was still insisting. He's a job man that came to job England. Even returning to England, he can't scout players, he was recalling Jordan Henderson and Ruben Loftus Cheek in his first squads immediately, showing he hasn't watched any videos of the available talent. Lazy bloke.

Was thinking of tackling the bolded earlier on but I just thought to leave you to deal with the loss in your own way.

Actually watched Tuchel extensively during his stint in Paris and believe me he was the opposite. Not a single soul would have questioned his work ethic then. Infact he literally used to get told off for the opposite and players used to complain about the intense demands, I also recall Bellingham saying something about a thousand passes in his last presser.

Man used to have long video sessions analysing his opponents, Every player who has worked with TT knows he is meticulous, so all this talk about his work ethic no be am. It was so bad that Neymar had to come to the media to rant after one long exhausting video and how he couldnt travel anymore.

Maybe you are talking about his last minutes in the club when he already clashed with the sporting director and was on his way out so he may have downed tools. Similar to how it was during his last months in Chelsea with those clowns still in charge today were telling him to do a 4-4-3 formation. Same thing with his time at PSG with Leonardo. It's probably why you noticed the Brazilian chicks with him at the time.

If you want criticize the guy, no add extra. Who knows?, he may still be the one to deliver England's first medal in the world cup and then you'll still have to knight him lol

Tuchel embarrassed me yesterday as a Chelsea fan(Messi fan too)….

He should be sacked and any team wey buy am dy their self.
Yeah I was surprised too. Went defensive too early. Shocking cowardice, He basically made the same mistakes that Egypt and Switzerland did - Although the Swiss were forced into it with the red card

Maybe he was too lazy to do research like Ibime said grin, But here's a quote before the match yesterday, so I think he's been rightly criticised, especially how he locked shop after the goal.

"Ahead of the 2026 World Cup semi-final, Thomas Tuchel indicated he was unaware of specific details regarding Argentina's match preparations, and games, because he was entirely focused on his own team's schedule and logistics. Tuchel, managing a demanding schedule, stated his lack of attention was due to being fully consumed by training and team logistics"

Reminds me of a student who spends all his time towards exam preparations reading all the materials taught but doesnt account for the professor's testing style or exam conditions.

Guy's for sure getting it in the media right now. I kuku trust British media on that one. Their knives will be out in full force till the season starts

Pep losing that CL final is definitely one of the black marks on his career.
Yeah he was bad and tactically flawed in the game against Argentina, but what we will not do is rewrite history.

Pep was thorough outclassed by TT that season, he won him 3 times back to back with the last one being the CL final so make una take am jeje.

An absolutely shite manager how? Is he eccentric, yes, maybe even washed now but on his day, that guy gives.

When it's all said and done, Ronaldo and his fans tried all kinds of tactics and rhetorics to one-up Messi.

No international trophy, no world cup, Barca system boy bla bla bla. Stupid needless argument that was never needed in the first place.

How una go look Messi and all his attributes and the magic he performs on the field and still compare him to that guy.

Now 3 world cup finals and he was the key player for his country in all of them. Every single +ve metric on the pitch, he's there

Make Ronaldo retire first, he'll take his rightful place among the GOAT convo which is definitely not top 3. Cant wait to end all this forced rivalry and media backed noise.

Anyway, back to the shadows. My own na to dey dash every Pro Messi and Anti Ronaldo post likes anywhere I see them

Someone is lining up 7 defenders which includes 5 centre backs and allowing Argentina pick up ball Infront of their box

Your man is an utter failure. I criticise him for his transfer disasters but today he was an utter tactical disaster. He done scam England for big money.
Fair. No excuses, even I was disappointed.

Awful negative tactics from TT, Maybe it would have worked ala Mourinho but those English players no get the heart

Also, It was clear Tuchel hadnt watched Argentina this tournament as they become warriors when they go down, grit wins all the time. England was inviting pressure against Argentina which is way riskier than possession.

You cant go up 1 nil against them and start defending, that was literally the time to enforce counter attacks, Instead he played like a typical semifinal where u park bus and ride 1 nil to sunset.

Also how is Pickford the best goalkeeper in England. A good goalkeeper with better positioning is saving at least one of those 2 goals

The only reason VAR intervened was cos Paredes was booked, otherwise, it would have been ignored and they would have just stuck with the onfield decision. And the only reason Paredes was booked was because Embolo kept rolling around disgracefully even after the blatant dive which forced the ref hands

Even at that the ref kept watching the replay at multiple angles, maybe to see a way out for Embolo I suspect, cos that replay only needed a sec to decide the verdict.

I actually like this new mistaken identity rule, anything that affects the integrity of the game and aims at misleading refs need to quickly be stamped out. That fool Embolo would actually have been ok with an underserved yellow for Paredes right, Despite being caught, he was acting like who got cheated. In this day and age of Video replays.

I have absolutely no pity for him.

No, it means he plays like all those we dey call "skillful" back then when we used to play 5 to 7 aside with goalkeepers.

All those players that won't mark or track the ball back when the team is out of possession. They only play to enjoy themselves on the offensive and do the barest minimum when the team is defending..... The team will always suffer with such players in a very tight game against a formidable opponent.
