Didn't see anywhere else to put it so ...... thread started.

Silva scores for Spain v Belgium.
Costa gets in his way for a possible second.

Silva really looks to be getting his mojo back.
Belgium look like they've learned nothing since the Euros. A bunch of individuals.

Silva scores a penalty for his and Spain's second.
Lukaku gave away a cheap penalty with a clumsy challenge. He's been muck. KDB totally anonymous.
Merlin looking very good.

Jordan Lukaku has been muck. Romelu is now on.

Romelu and Jordan. Never knew they were brothers.

Silva being subbed off. Was brilliant. And he's safe now.

kdb is seriously off the pace this season
only seen glimpses of what he can do
i wish he'd spend less time building his off field 'image'... his social media stuff is seriously embarrassing. lad needs to realise that he looks like a ginger nerd.

Harsh... but so true. He has lost possession too cheaply today

Agree that if he doesn't up his work rate and get his weight of pass and touch right soon, he'll be the one making way for either Gunga-din or Sane.
He's s wonderfully gifted player but hasn't grasped the use of space as easily as Silva in what I've seen of Pep's system.

Sterling and him must have swapped individual forms from last season to this.

KDB has only shown form with his set pieces...he needs to sort himself out.

Ill text pep again...see what he says.

Get onto it, before the 10th.

Spain looked decent, especially when Silva was on but hard to judge them against a very disjointed Belgian team.
Bob and Terry have their work cut out to make a team out of them. Although the raw materials are there.

only problem is is that bobby and terry are fucking clueless. they'll give great interviews though.

France win in Italy. 3-1 only caught the last 10 minutes.
Looked comfortable for France.

Australia beat Iraq 2-0
Dunno who's been coaching Mooy but he didn't look good.

Gabriel is putting on a show apparently. 2 goals + 1 assist.

2 goals on his senior debut -

First is standard: https://streamable.com/fdhw

But second is a beauty: https://streamable.com/i3gi

Have a feeling people will look back on this as one of the better transfers we've made in recent years

First looks slightly better than standard, standard would be a tap in at the far post that was a flick with the outside of his right foot facing away from goal, looked like the goal of a lad brimming with confidence

That second goal!!!! Wow. Can't wait for this lad to arrive.

He is looking good.
