Perhaps the loss of the coach has kicked in after the false dawn of the first game?

My god, this is rancid. why have busquets and koke swapped positions? is it because Busquets can't move? I bet it's because he can't move. largely becanse he's not moving. I've only ever seen a performance like his once, and it involved Yakubu, making a 20 minute substitute appearance against Ghana at Griffin Park. Nigeria were 4-1 down at the time, and I can't remember if he even took off his tracksuit bottoms. It was a cold night after all.
The upshot of it is that spain are playing with six players across the halfway line and passing it forward and back. Koke is playing where he is to enable the full backs to play as wingers, but this is utterly pointless if you aren't consistently getting three or four players into the box. And as I type Spain make a fourth substitution, but Busquets stays in the Xavi role. He must have hierro's kids locked in a basement or something.
