Ben Brereton Diaz

[davulsukur]

Its happening!

[AspRover]

It's 1:1, Argentina have brought on Angel Di Maria in a very competitive game and I kid you not Ben Brereton looks to be coming on for Chile

 

Edit: we have ourselves a bone fide south American international footballer on the books

Woooo. Go on Ben score the winner against Messi

[davulsukur]

Looks like he's playing through the middle as well

[Giant]

Fantastic experience for Ben to be on the same pitch as Messi and Di Maria.

[oozy]

Brereton 'Diaz' on the back of his shirt- Must be his mother's surname.

Imagine he has that on his Rovers shirt next year!

[AspRover]

Playing centrally as a main striker, in response Argentina throw on Sergio Aguero presumably feeling a little out gunned

[bluebruce]

If someone had told you a couple of years ago that Ben Brereton was going to be sharing a pitch with Messi in 2021 (or, ever, really) you'd have called them a damned dirty liar!

[bigbrandjohn]

Playing a blinder

[Giant]

Brilliant break and pass by Ben

[oozy]

Class cameo this by Big Ben Diaz!

[AspRover]

We need to workshop nicknames - I suggest the Chilean seabass

[AspRover]

Christ he actually looks, you know... good

I'll be incredibly disappointed if he doesn't.

The difference time away from Tony Mowbray makes!

Looks sharp doesn't he.

Both been poor, but he's twice the player SG is.

Should be ahead of him on the team sheet every time.

We know a guy selling Brereton Diaz 22 Chile tops for cheap..

If I hadn’t seen this I would never have believed it.

[bigbrandjohn]

Great cameo from Ben. Target man against Messi. Winger if he is lucky for us. 

[davulsukur]

Solid international debut for BB to be fair. 

[AspRover]

There was a point there when he tracked back to dispossess Di Maria only for the ball to break to Messi. They were the three players in frame. I've not seen something like that without the make a wish Foundation being involved.

#BreoWatch meets commercial opportunities 😁

What a game of football by the way. That was much better than anything served up at the Euros so far. Chilean midfielders are absolute warriors. 
 

Brilliant Cameo by Big Ben, looked great! Loved the turn in the box, got about 3 Ooo’s from the crowd! Absolutely superb. Will now be Chile fan!
 

It was like watching someone you knew in school playing!

There’s something in that Si Senor song for sure. In fact, it’s begging for it. 

He is the king of Chile don’t you know

born in Stoke

La Rojo’s number 9

Si Senor

give Diaz the ball and he will score
