Either he's constantly having to carry them or they're constantly set up in a way that makes them over reliant on him. Or both. Either way, the amount of pressure on him must be huge and I dont think it's any surprise he's struggling at the World Cup whether that's due to pressure, because opposition teams know to neutralise him, or because his team mates have nothing to give. Tragic. As one of his (former) teammates said, he's too good - players naturally become dependent on him and/or don't know how to play in a team with him. Would also say that the Barcelona team he plays in is not only superior to Argentina, but they also get to train with him on a daily basis and therefore better at utilising his talents and are able to play when he doesn't have the ball.

wheres the pies Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 If big if had we qualified how many do you think we would have taken to Russia ? I’d say around the ten thousand mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morrie21 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 From what i've seen the only one that I could say with any certainty that we could take would be Saudi Arabia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest faircity Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 If you get caught diving like that they need to be punishing it with a straight red card. It is a blatant attempt to cheat and deceive. A yellow card isn't a deterrent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest faircity Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Yip. Shocking, I just think they need to get serious about diving and something needs done. With var in the higher profile competitions then there should be no excuse for them getting away with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's getting to the stage that games are won by who is best at falling over. Falling over is being coached into these players. At least this time they didn't get the penalty thanks to VAR, but Neymar should have been booked. Divin' wee fuker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orraloon Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Looking like a straight shoot out between Argentina and Nigeria. A draw will do for Nigeria, Argentina need to win.

Good VAR call again though. Groups are decided by goal difference so theoretically Nigeria could catch Croatia if they hump Argentina and/or Iceland hump Croatia reserves.
