Doctor Zaius

Liked the look of Pape Gueye for Senegal yesterday. Diatta too. Bouaddi for Morocco too but he'll be way out of reach I should imagine.

I think some are underrating him here in a competent tactical setup. He was very good 24/25. Having said that, a £100m is mad money for him and if be very surprised if Spurs stumped up that.

Can still get Messi at 50/1 for the Ballon D'or

Mbappe got away with one too. I wonder if it's leniency as I can't recall any harsh sendings off aside from that mental game on the first day, but it wouldn't suprise me if there was a directive not to send the best players off.

Norway haven't been impressive. Not good on the ball and look defensively frail. Look like 10 average players + Haaland. Though Nusa is decent

Odegaard is a shadow of the player he was a few seasons ago

Good half of football that. Enjoyed Iraq

Ah disaster

Wasn't gonna bother with Iraq v Norway but go on then. I'll have a look

Good second half like

Pure taste from France in all fairness, two great passes for the goals

What a ball

That's a pen like

Shearer is right, the "hydration" breaks are shit

Has anyone ever seen Rabiot have a good game? Is he actually a good player? I don't watch much European football but he looks poor every time I see him.
