Jamie0202 12,220 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 The big man is getting more tested in this half. Seems to be able to head the ball for miles. Looks solid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were to hypothesise I might conclude: Lack of grassroots football since the demise of the USSR More money in the country but lack of investment in football too many overpaid foreign players IIRC lots of the great USSR players were from the Ukraine their equivalent of Reagan running their football association.

The sheer size of the country and its bad weather probably don't help either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misteral 2,932 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Shit game really. They got a clean sheet but TBH I thought Alves looked a bit lost at times. Anyway, it's how he plays for us that counts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, it's how he plays for us that counts. I only seen the second half so can't comment on the first but what from what I did see he looked a very good solid defender. With the second half Russian onslaught he looked very rarely troubled and won countless headers. There were a few times he cleared the ball out for a throw in instead of trying to find a team mate but I really don't mind this as his job is about defending first and foremost. Bocanegra and Weir done the very same thing and were fantastic players for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VladimirWeiss69 802 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 He should blitz it here as although Russia were shit this game, they are not exactly a shit team. We have countless shit teams playing in Scotland! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
