Why did you edit that post to something else and then re-post it?
The site is broken. Ive been trying to post this for 5 minutes and im getting errors.
The worst part about last night was having to try and explain to my mum why we had 'scored too early', as I declared we had just after the goal.
Did we get to the bottom of why Kane was playing so deep yet?
Most pundits have been saying he looked injured.Quote:

He seemed to be playing more as a number 10. Which is pretty mental, when his partner was Sterling.
He had the chances. He bottled them.
He bottled one (well 2 go’s at the same chance), the header wasn’t particularly easy. Regardless of that, he’s the top scorer in the tournament, so he’s hardly had a stinker.Quote:

I was drunk, and in the pub last night, but I swear the assistant flagged offside for that Kane double chance.
He did but the consensus of people I’ve spoken to was VAR would have given it. I was drunk too so I don’t know for sure.Quote:

He also won the majority of those penalties and the free kicks that lead to the setpiece goals.Quote:

A goal is a goal. Doesn't matter how you score it.

Jim's spot on about the subs. They were too late. I think we had nothing in midfield either to help Henderson.
So that did actually happen? I could've sworn it had but then he didn't actually seem to go off.Quote:

Apparently Mandzukic got the first one.
The first one was Mandzukic for slapping the ball away after Rebic had kicked someone.
He elbowed Walker in the face.
Even better.
Ref's have been extremely lenient throughout the tournament. It's probably for the best, as going the other way really wrecks games, but some teams have taken the piss. Neymar must have been fouled (fairly cynically) about a thousand times by Behrami alone.
Excellent. Graham Poll's not alone in being confused by Croatians. Also, people can go on about the draw all they like. At the end of it, there are three teams that look good out of the 32 that set off. Belgium, France and Croatia (the fucking Ironmen) are the only three that have hit any sort of stride.Quote:

Seems someone jokingly said that Croatia would be getting disqualified and Twitter have bought it :harold:
The original post (assuming it's the one a friend of mine shared, albeit he shared it knowing it was bollocks) said the guy was meant to serve a 2 match ban for collecting 2 yellow cards. They weren't even trying to hide that it was a load of shit.Quote:

Is it? Ok.Quote:

Our commentator said something about Rebic's card being reallocated to Mandzukic, and this was significantly before Rebic's later actual yellow card.
Oh Graham Poll. The memories.
I only recently found out that Poll was duped because Simunic was talking in a broad Aussie accent, so he put his first yellow under Australia.
It wasn't really "reallocated" - the ref clearly showed the yellow directly to Mandzukic, either because he thought he made the tackle, or he was mouthing off (which he was).Quote:
