They have a very tough game this week then it really opens up. Surely Uraguay should be above England, they've already made it through
Uraguay have to beat Brazil or France to get to the final. Maybe both.

Why do players insist on still trying to grab the ball when they believe they're fouled.... Like a schoolboy

breaks up play and forces the ref to make a decision and usually they dont get carded so there is almost no downside

You look like a dick and often give away a handball if it wasn't a foul which it often isn't.

Raheem sterling does it. If I was his manager I'd fucking beast him every time he did it

yeah but it allows the player on the floor to get back on his feet and get back in position, whereas if they don't do it then they are on the floor and the other player is off. It's gamemanship and should be carded, but it isn't, so players do it because its adventageous for them to do so.

I'm not convinced. But I see your point.

If I'm ever a manager my players are getting beasted if they do it

its not the most thrilling game, but i watched arsenal last season so not the worst game i've watched in a while.

if you make a genuine attempt for the ball as the last man that gives away a penalty the ref can give a yellow and a pen.
