loopdokter think Canada will be ok if you play a decent forecheck, dump and chase the puck, get some good screening in front of net, work the blue line and use the point men well.

      For fuck’s sake! 😄

        17 Cristian Roldan

        On the subs bench for USA…and not used. Very similar name to a high profile player out of favour with a leading Manchester brand.

        Hmm. No idea what covid vaccinations they both have had but it does make you think.

        hugopal So why aren’t you watching the BBC coverage over a VPN?

        iPlayer’s ‘geoblocks’ still detect that I’m not in the UK (or that I’m using a VPN), using Astrill with a UK server.

        Apparently, there are VPNs that get around BBC’s blocks, such as Express, but they’re actually crap for use in China (always being blocked).

        So I use one that gives me dependable access to pretty much everything EXCEPT, it seems, iPlayer (and 4ondemand).

            Dan unlucky with the penalty

            You mean the freestrike ?

              loopdokter I think we’re going to come out firing full tilt to try and get an early goal. Belgium are aging and we’re probably one of the quickest sides overall at the World Cup

              Yeah. I think your problem might be actually getting a hold of the ball. Belgium will look to starve Canada of possession and win it back high up the pitch.

              But i do agree with you that Canada are something of an unknown force here, with some dangerous players, and they could definitely surprise Belgium who are not superhuman. I’d be a little nervous if I was Belgian, and not because of what I had in my basement.

                Everyone banging on about how good England were,best players etc.No mention of Saka? Best player in the game? Hope he comes back to Goonerland in one piece.

                  strummer Never used a VPN for the iplayer here in Oz.Been a "Pirate"for years here.

                  They must have Astrill’s IPs blacklisted I reckon.

                    Some right good meaty challenges in the Argie game 😂

                    Best entertainment of this game is gonna be a punch-up between Keane and Souness in the studio.

                    alistair Who fancied Argentina?

                    Me!

                    But I needn’t remind anyone they lost to Cameroon in the opener in ’90 and still reached the final.

                        No one seems to be talking about us letting in 2 goals from a shit team.

                            I was, though not on here. A decent team will totally exploit the Pickford-Maguire-Stones shambles.
