That young boy yamal looks like he will be the next superstarĀ The thing with Yamal is that he's not just pace and power, which you see a lot of promising youngsters have but then the rest of their development doesn't catch up. He's an excellent playmaker, his passing is really intelligent.Ā Leftpegcoopz11, RM Monitor And Standards Officer, Bluekev and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotland are shit and 95% of their fans hate rangers, England is the Kings XI. Fair play if your not bothered for England to be successful or want them to win but to actively support any other team who they are playing baffles me Itās like wee team syndrome a bit like fans of all the wee shity diddy teams in Scotland like Aberdeen whoās only happiness in football is when Rangers get beatĀ Tragic lol Malkytfp1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had genuine world class players in all but a couple positions for 3 tournaments on the bounce.Ā This one may turn into something similar but I don't see it tbh. The defence isn't up to much and when Kane goes there's not really any striker that's in thay category.Ā I see Spain dominating for a few tournaments to come like the done in 2008 onward.Ā Malkytfp1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standard across the board has decreased though for the top sides IMOĀ I think that's the point he's making though, individually England have the players, but they've been put into a system that doesn't suit any of them. Bellingham, Foden, Kane, Saka, Rice, Palmer, Stones etc all are world class and some of the best in the world in their position.Ā How many of Spain's players would you say are better than their English equivalent? Rodri and probably not many others. The difference with Spain is that they've built a system that works and put players into positions they succeed in.
