He’s their best defender by a country mile. Bizarre. But I’m strangely happy about it because I’m quite keen for Argentina to go out in the group stage.

Go back to your padded cell and eat…..shit? - Hoping Costa Rica can put Germany out, but not counting on it. Also looking forward to the inevitable Belgian meltdown.

I’d play the same team we put out today. Personally think that’s the most assured we’ve seen England in some time. Even better than the Iran game tbh. That midfield 3 is undoubtedly our best bet currently. If Mount plays, I think it’ll be a real...

The midfield is decent. But even when they dominate, they barely create any real chances. Just huff and puff. Yes I’ve “only” viewed 2.5 of the 3 games they’ve played. Thought they were decent in 2 of the 5 havles I saw then play but thought they...

Well, not obviously, because I’ve watched them all. I live in the US. They may have outplayed England, but it was all huff and puff and no end product. They created what? About one chance? And a long range hit against the bar. Just lots and lots...

USA Holland will be a dreadful game. Both teams have been boring as feck so far. The Dutch bore the other team to death, and the US - while they haven’t conceded much - barely score. Game could go either way. I don’t rate the Dutch much right...

What’s with the illiterate thread title?

Vinicius is so fecking greedy.

For Brasil right now on the field there are 7 premier league players, 3 Real players, and Marquinhos. 3 from Utd, a 4th having come off. How times have changed.

What a fecking hit

Holy shit, Ronaldo reached new levels of obesity

I know he had a good finish against Serbia, but Richarlison as the main Brasil number 9 is hugely anticlimactic. I like him as a personality and player - mainly for his work rate - but he doesn’t have enough quality.

He was miles offside and immediately competed for the ball. About as blatant an offside as you’ll ever see. Pre-var play would’ve been stopped ages before and there’d be no “goal” controversy.

It just too fecking long. I was desperate to leave the cinema by the end. It’s ok but there were a lot of stupid plot points, and Riri Williams just flat out sucked.

Thank you. Great to gain some educated insight. Out of the talents coming through, I have only really heard of Gabriel, Estevao, Endrick, and Luis Guillherme, either through this thread or elsewhere. How would you rate each of them in terms of...
