Sad for Alonso, I thought he was a sound guy as well as being a class footballer.. What the hell happened to him in the last month. ?????

Spain have resorted to Koke.

The heir apparent to the great Xavi Hernandez enters the fray at the Maracana, Koke is on.

He was terrible tonight but don't remember him being particularly bad towards the end of the season. Granted he was suspended for the CL final.

Ossie was bang on there, Brady said teams have sussed how to play Spain, put pressure on them. It's not like that's suddenly a revelation. As Ossie said, teams have tried that previously, The difference is Spain are not what they were. I don't agree wth the tiki taka is dead brigade either. It's just that this particular group of players seem to have reached the end of the line. It certainly doesn't give me the pleasure which it seems to do to a lot of people on here.

The andersonisgod bashing is well past the point of being funny.

I genuinely enjoy his posts. I also enjoy the responses.

Anyone think Abramovich might pull the plug on the Costa deal?

Hopefully he's a one season wonder.

Why wouldn't it be allowed. Anyone that takes it too far gets an infraction for it.

@_CarltonCole9: Spain have bought on Koke to add a bit of fizz into their midfield

I think Vicente Del Bosque has proven that it's easy to be a good manager/coach when you have great players

Changed over to BBC at half time, and yeah, spot on with the Danny Murphy call.

He's quite enjoyable.

He's got it wrong so far but you don't win 2/3 tournaments without being a good manager.
