My world cup thoughts:
VAR: jury still out.
Messi and Ronaldo: International careers over.
So called 'big teams' not 'big teams' anymore.
Russia: excellent hosts by all accounts.
England: not over hyped for a change but not good enough, lucky to reach semi's.
Neymar, Sterling and because of today Griezman an embarrassment to themselves and their country due to their simulation (diving) antics, not the only ones but high profile players.
Overall enjoyable tournament. One thing could've made it better........Us.
