    Deschamps's talk with Payet would have gone a little like this:

    Some of you really are ****ing pathetic kicking Ronaldo while he's down
    It really does show up some of the worst human attributes, and most of the same people will be cheering on as a hero a multi-millionaire who can't pay a few measlly taxes.

    An MCL injury? He took a lot of weight to the the inside of the knee during the challenge.

    Ligament strain is definitely my guess too. Makes sense, it's painful enough to give pause and make you go off but gives you enough confidence to still put weight on the leg.

    Once you try and kick a ball though with that leg though you realise you've no strength in it.

    Ah here, is the stretcher not a bit much? He was able to walk off the pitch (for treatment) without a limp, 5 minutes ago.

    It's such a shame he had to go off not nice for him to miss out on a game so big but the stretcher was a bit much alright.

    This is garbage. Blow the whistle and we'll do it again next weekend.

    Sissoko is a completely different person when he has something to fight for.

    We are still bitter after what something any normal player would do with what Henry did.

    No we are not. Any Irish fan with a bit of sense has gotten well over that. Most of us by the next morning.
    Listen to Roy Keane talk about it when he was manager of Ipswich. He was right, sometimes decisions go against you, and then also with you.

    Keane v Overmars springs to mind.

    Go in hard on the main man. Take a yellow if necessary.

    Not good for this final as a spectacle though

    If it turns out to be ligament damage then it is probably the right precaution to go with.

    Christ Ronaldo won't quit.

    Admire his dedication- but could have a negative affect on his career

    Danny Murphy- "I'd take that risk"
    - for Fulhum?

    Or Liverpool still remember the free kick he scored after Neville decided to play vollyball

    There are another 21 players out there you do know. You would think the bloke is after been killed.

    Not sure that's it's definitely ligament damage, might just be a shock to the nerve and the leg gone dead.

    Anyone gloating over an injury is not a happy bunny. Pathetic behaviour really

    Sissoko is a very different person with Les Bleus. He gives it everything for "our" jersey. That's why he's here. And he rarely disappoints. That's what Deschamps likes.

    Keane was great at "taking one for the team"

    Only on boards.ie would you have people complaining about the fashion that an injured player leaves the field, such is the bitterness. Pathetic really.

    Disagree, when you play with some world class players. You will no doubt look better.
    And when you play with a team that gets regulated, rarely does anyone look excellent

    This is the same Moussa I-only-play-well-when-on-camera Sissoko?

    He's legendary for his ability to be sh*t unless he's on Ford Super Sunday.

    I'd be surprised if it wasn't an intentional hit from Payet

    He didn't mean to put him out of the game, he's probably happy enough about it though as you would be
