Neymar goal was good but still just a free kick innit, can't really judge ability on them outside of set piece finesse. Balo assist was lovely. Italy look a shadow of the team from the Euros but like I said earlier and others have said, now is the time to be experimental.

Japan lost all three games? Shinji :(

Isco to Madrid, yayyyy. Should play Alonso as pivot, Modric and Isco in midfield. Fuck Khedira.

Thiago pls

What was Buffon doing tonight? Think he was at fault for almost every goal, at least in part.

Neymar definitely dived btw, not even any doubt about it. Free kick was nice although I think Buffon should have saved it. Still, nice to see him silence his haters.

Rooney needs to do one Kagawa needs to play #10 next year.

It's like people don't even watch Barca. Biscuits? What has he done since the Inter game to make him this massive cunt? Alba, Alves, Pinto, Valdes, etc So many cunts on the team to pick from who are way worse than he is, Busquets is not even on their level.

Busquets dives a lot and complains to the ref like every other Barca player. He's probably the least cuntish off the pitch though.

True, true. Alba is the most despicable fucking cretin in football right now in my eyes.

What about his other 2 goals this tournament vs Japan and Mexico? And his assist vs Mexico was amazing too.

- Kagawa and Honda first to feel the wrath of Neymar.
- Up next Chicha and Dos Santos were the unlucky ones to have to vs him.
- Today we saw him against Chiellini and Buffon. Made them have the worst game of their long and great experienced careers.

Xavi and Iniesta, you're next.

Just finished my best season ever with Football Manager. I am coach of Manchester City and just finished the season 2024-2025. My fourth season at the club. And I won in this order the league cup, the fa cup, the premier league and the Champions League. I won the Premier League on the last day in favour of Manchester United. I thought I was done when United scored a 0-2 at Westham United. But there striker Hilyard made it 1-2 and 2-2 after the break and it stayed that way. And the CL I beated Real Madrid with 3-0 and for the fourth time in a row the media saw me and my teams as the underdog. Last 16 I knocked out the now former champion PSG and after that Valencia, Ac Milan and now Real Madrid.
I even got a steam badge now for being a world famous manager. Only have 5 other managers in the game who are still better with me including Ferguson and Mourinho. Mourinho the only of those 5 still being active.

Nice! I'm in 2032 in my game, playing as a roaming manager, I started in the BSN and now I'm managing Brighton in the Premier League, which we've won twice, and gotten to the CL semi-finals twice.

My career path so far has been (with leagues managed in)
- Blyth Spartans (BSN, BSP)
- Bristol Rovers (L2, L1)
- Millwall (Championship)
- England (won the World Cup and Euros)
- Brighton (PL)
- Barcelona (La Liga, won the CL, and went a season unbeaten, spent £700m on transfers and bankrupted Barcelona)
- Brighton (PL)

My best screenshot is probably this one, depicting the striker I built the team around at Barcelona, and his best season at the club (I also gave him his England debut when he was 18).

Neymar really didn't do much at all this game, except flop, commit a ton of fouls, and score a free kick thanks to a Buffon error.

I'm not judging him overall because I never really watch him play, but just going by today he did nothing special. Certianly didn't look like a 30 million euro player (or however much you guys spent on him, 35 million? Couldn't have been more than that or you guys are nuts.)

Brendan said he took Reina out for a meal a couple of months ago and told him of his intention to bring in proper competition. He wants competition throughout the squad.

All well and good but eventually he will have to settle for one or the other.

And considering he's about to pay close to £10m for Mig...it would seem Reina's days are numbered.

Two of our players got injured in the first half? It happened in the Euro final too. Food for thought, Prandelli.

His son is the fitness coach.

I think you can have a lot of competition in every position, but two top goalkeepers is asking for trouble :/ would be unfair to one or the other to keep them on the bench
