For some reason I always thought Laporte was French

[Mellin]

You know who aren't all that? Spain. Have they played anyone yet?

Danny Murphy thinks it's Belgium v France.

He's so on the ball. I miss Shearer 😫

I've noticed they play music during the hydration break now. Someone's idea to cover up the booing i bet.

He’s on the BBC gravy train.

They're unbeaten in 36 competitive games, which suggests they might be fairly decent.

I seem to be getting soft in the world cup era. I like Shearer. And Haaland (and all the memes) are amusing me 😫😫

Commentator notices Noel Gallagher but completely misses Penelope Cruz

She’s very difficult to ignore, especially in Jamon Jamon.

Which in reality is World Cup and Euro qualifiers? Plus absolutely no one at this World Cup. France and England in the Euro finals I'll give you.

Seriously, where's the outstanding quality? Yamal and who else? The midfield's good, but it's not exactly Xavi, Busquets and Iniesta. It's an average Spain team.

Edit: Does that unbeaten run include losing to mobility's Cristiano Ronaldo on pens in the Nations League final?

They're a much better unit than most teams. You can sort of say that about all the teams apart from France.

Agree with that. There aren't any outstanding teams apart from the French. I'm just not having the fawning over Spain. They're alright.
