    Can someone who knows about soccer tell me the point of Luke shaw? I see a holding midfielder with no attacking instinct whose signature move is a gentle tap backwards to the defensive line.

    Am I missing something?

    Aged well.

    I'm not soccer aficionado, but he's been my pick of the England team. Looks to be a very smart player and has featured in a lot of the big plays.

    I wish someone would tell me I’ve aged well…

    Watching this on German TV on Rab Island Croatia. Bastian Schweinsteiger is one of the experts. I see his wife is Ana Ivanovic. Nice work son.

    So far Spain strikers remain useless. Despite changes.

    To my surprise Spain are dominating but the first touch of their strikers is just so poor.

    Ha ha. Italy score on the counterattack. That’ll learn Spain for being so profligate.

    Both very nice goals in their different ways but fuck the post-goal celebrations are embarrassing.

    I wonder how long they spend practicing their oh so contrived slides and choreographed arm movements. /GOM
