The ridiculous amount of play acting/injury feigning which is frankly just an embarrassment to the game.

The harrassment of referees. Eg last night Argentina when the pen was awarded. I just wish one referee would get his yellow card out and book any player who gets in his face. There could have been 4 or 5 Argentinian players booked including Mascherano (who then have had to walk as he was booked for the foul). They should also be booked for doing the TV sign to the ref.

I can only assume FIFA does not care about all this otherwise they would have issued an edict to the refs before the Tournament. This is sad for the game and just encourages kids to follow suit.
The harassment of the refs is particular pointless when you can clearly see the ref telling the players that the VAR officials are looking at something and he's listening to what they've got to say.

And my point is it could be stopped SO easily if the refs just stood their ground, yellow card in hand, showing it to anyone who approached them in dissent. If the refs had the support of FIFA on this, it would happen. Its an embarrassment to the game.

Not disagreeing but doesn't your last sentence contradict the statement that 32 is enough good teams?

The South American teams have been strong, Chile is another good team missing.

It has been good, and the limitations of VAR are maybe obscuring the advantages. Less clear cynicism, especially in the box. There have been a lot of exciting games played at pace. I think this will continue. Good players are shining, and poor ones being exposed.

By the way, Russia is bloody hot in the summer - just as hot as Japan. I was at the England - Brazil game where we completely wilted and I understand why. They had ten men on the pitch and still out-passed us. I think Southgate has appreciated this and selected a young side because of it. Let's watch some of the other teams wilt in the coming weeks. Any European side playing a late afternoon match against a south American or African side will struggle from now on.

Weird that this isn’t done. All it would take it is one or two games where the ref books anyone who steps over the line, and you would see a positive change.

It is but I think it will eventually happen and probably to us.

Brilliant. The Cup that keeps giving. Who's next. Brazil?

Stick your big money Champions League up your arse. Give me an outstanding World Cup every day of the week. No money needed.

I was in Marseille supporting England that day and was actually pleased the Russians went on the rampage. They targeted the loutish English fans only.

I disagree.
It was cathartic, watching the Germans do their collective crust.
