We played Vardy and Okazaki instead and won the league.

Well fair enough !

 

:D

 

In all seriousness, it was just a difference in styles. 

 

Kramaric wasn't well suited to our high pressing, counter attacking style. Benefited from going away and playing for a side that wanted to pass it around and create more chances in and around the box.

What happened with him at you guys ?

 

Maybe too young /not ready or wasn’t keen to be second fiddle to Vardy ?

Was not good enough at the time and Vardy was still at the height of his powers, have to remember a few years have gone by.

Canada have been entertaining but completely outclassed

Not surprising though, first world cup since what 86?  We arent exactly powerhouses lol.

 

We can only get  better. Croatia was the better team so congrats for the well deserved win. 

 

Still hope belgium and morocco go through (if i had a selfish way).

Yeah they deserve a lot of credit for settling down after that start, riding the storm and then getting on about their own game. 

They reached the final 4 years ago. They won't this time round because they are that much older, but on their day they can make anyone look like fools.

 

Also who was that guy on the right wing that cut onto his left and scored a few goals today? Wonder if he fancies a move back to Leicester? :ph34r:

They are probably the most composed team in the world. They came from behind a few times in 2018 as well and did the same in the Nations League. Modric has to go down as an all time great when he eventually retires.

Qualifying above the US, Mexico and Costa Rica, I do think that brings some expectations with it. They deserved to beat Belgium, which would have made the final game interesting.
