The Actual World Cup 2022 Thread

Jules72 we fucked up against Italy. I’ll give you that. He was far too slow to react and make subs

C_J I’m with you on this. After the Scotland game in the last euros, everyone wanted southgate gone immediately and that all turned out pretty well. Based on that I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt, even though this game should’ve been easily winnable and looking that flat worries me.

mono-stereo Size of Bob’s head!

Jules72 he has been the most successful because he has the most talented English squad of the modern era…

That’s subjective.

Gonna get fruity this game the night

This feels like a really big game. Cauldron like atmosphere, huge stadium. A lot at stake

alistair Steve Cooper would be worth exploring too

Steve Cooper is Welsh - don’t see that happening!!

Ref already looks like he doesn’t know which way is up with all the diving and head holding by both mexico and Argentina.

hugopal Steve Cooper is Welsh

And he looks permanently stoned - not a good look.

hugopal didn’t stop him managing England’s u17s to a world cup win.

Theres been some shit games so far in this World Cup but fuck me this is taking the piss. If it keeps up like this in the 2nd half i’ll be Qata®-tonic! Lolz!

Mad_Cyril England V Kuwait from the San Mamés in Bilbao, yes.

What a goal. Brilliant.

alistair They keep hyping up Messi. It’s a reflection of how shit ligue 1 is that he’s got so many goal contributions this season. Shadow of his brilliant best.

You were saying, Ed. I mean ali.

alistair or a great goal like that!

Great instinctive strike. Can seemingly walk through games and still change them

alistair I’ve never seen a player like him in terms of literally walking about for 90% of the game but then always either scoring, assisting or creating a chance. Greatest player I’ve ever seen
