You have to see the game in the context in which it is played...
Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.
We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Spain did it to themselves...stupid team, imagine not giving a direct player like Traore a chance, but playing an utterly useless Oyarzabal continuously...Its a Goal wrote: ↑Tue Jul 06, 2021 10:37 pm Italy deserved it. Hung on despite Spain playing them off the park.

Re: Italy vs Spain(1-1)
This Italian team is slightly overrated and Spain demonstrated that today. Denmark will fancy their chances against them in the final.

He's right though. Italy had to dig deep not to concede more than one
But Spain did look better

What a player Pedri is.
For more than a year I have heard multiple EPL pundits herald us with how good Phil Foden is. A good player, yes. But that's it...
He's not on the level of Pedri or Fati and multiple other players in la liga

Re: Italy vs Spain(1-1)
Please stop it.
You can hype one without downing the other.
Foden has shown his class and skill in a rugged league
made even tougher by extreme elements, pressure and more physical players. He has the skill and ability to play in any league.
One day hopefully we shall see Fati and Pedri ply their trade in the EPL and compare ...

Re: Italy vs Spain(1-1)
Spain lost today but seriously, this team is 2 to 3 players away from another potential era of greatness. As much as I always root against Spain, the writing is on the wall again and I hate it.
And Pedri. I don't even know what to say and not say about that kid. And only 18?!?!!????

As usual, my CE brothers underestimating Inglaterra. Sterling, Foden, Kane, Grealish, Sancho... Denmark go chop something tomorrow, na koboko be the name.

My maternal grandpa is 100% Spanish and it’s the first
language I grew up with, so don’t paint me with that tag.
I grew up rooting for his Ath. Bilbao teams.
But back to the point in hand, how can ya compare a tournament to a season of the EPL? Makes no sense.
Again Fati and Pedri are immense talents, but Foden has the X Factor that none of em have.
One of the reasons CRON was able to dominate La Liga for so long
was his years of adapting the physicality gained from his EPL years into his time at Real. When his skills started deteriorating he became more of a physical beast to overcome those shortcomings.
Again we can complement both sets of players without trashing the other ... and pray tell who the “multiple others” are in La Liga that are better than Foden lol
