Fucking game man. I left for 15 minutes to do something and what happens? 3 goals are scored...

I am convinced that Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the cause of Sweden's failure. No team can benefit from having a player who's extremely overrated and 10 times more famous than everyone else.

he's also ten times better than the other players. he's quite unselfish and willing to create at the club level (on the pitch), but it's hard when he's playing with guys who aren't even close to being on the same level.

I wish he was more selfish. His shot is amazing, I wish he'd use it more!

The difference is that Portugal has other good players. Sweden has mediocre players in most positions.

I'm pretty sure Zlatan is over the hill though. He's been really slow these last two games, and doesn't seem to want to even try and do something. Previous years he's been at least passing and dribbling, even if it hasn't always resulted in anything, and he has saved Sweden quite a number of times before. Now he's just standing still with the ball and doing nothing.

Zlatan's been our only good player these 2 games. Hard to blame him for everyone else underperforming.
