I think they should just give spain the cup just now, what a special team they are, to make that French team look so ordinary was ridiculous, pressing them into mistakes all over the park, was a joy to watch. Couldn't believe digne lasted the full game, he was getting tore a new one constantly.
How good is Danny olmo? Don't think it gets spoke about, of how good he is. His football brain is another level from most, been one of my favourites to watch this tournament.

I said Spain from the start BB4, but I am biased as my grandad is Spanish, so maybe a wee bit, but my god they are all just so comfortable on the ball, and also done all this while conceding 1 goal and without their best LW in Williams.
But Olmo is always one that goes under the radar for whatever reason, but he is bloody brilliant, just imagine if they had a world class striker.

Bigbluejim, Williams is in the squad.

Came on in games, Baena is a very good player also.
15 Jul 2026 15:55:56
Yeah it's crazy to think they're putting teams away like that without a big name striker, like Torres, Raul, Butragueno, or Williams.
Spoke to many today saying France didn't turn up, I absolutely think they weren't allowed to turn up.

Yes, I know that, but he has hardly kicked a ball due to niggling injuries. Now, if he was starting each game with him and Yamal, they would have been even more dominant.

I've been a huge admirer of Olmofor for years. He definitely goes under the radar and isn't spoken about or given the credit he deserves because of the 'superstars' so to speak.
I'm sure I wanted Rangers to sign him when I first saw him and he came on the scene. Wishful thinking on my part. 😂

That midfield of Spain is nasty!
15 Jul 2026 16:37:27
They have spoiled us rotten for about 20 years mate.

Spain have gone about their business very quietly, and almost under the radar. We all know they're a great team, as in "team", they play for each other, and a coach who knows his squad. And all without any Real Madrid players.

Spain, without a doubt for me the best international team in the world at this moment in time. 👌 I had bet them when they won the Euros and had said after that I was also betting them to win the World Cup and I put that bet on 1 month before the tournament started.
👍 I think it will be Spain v England in the World Cup final on Sunday night, with Spain winning 2-0. 🤔

Sco11, they signed one before it began, think they were feeling left out. 😁

I don't think Spain are particularly good in relative terms, more I think the rest are just not that great in comparison to previous World Cups. The overall standard is lower, imo. That said, Spain were worth the win last night.
15 Jul 2026 18:32:04
2-1 Argentina.
15 Jul 2026 18:39:18
Spain are a team, the rest rely on one player to deliver.
15 Jul 2026 19:07:37
Boy Blue, bang on. Spain didn't let France get going and will do the same to whoever they meet in final.

Butragueno, BB4, "The Vulture", there's a blast from the past, not heard his name in decades.
