Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Ramadan coming to an end.
World Cup and beer begins
World Cup and beer begins
Saudis were quite good against Germany. They will win this.
Russian wins the anthems. Sorry Saudi, that was rubbish.
It's the fecking World Cup! It's Russia vs Saudi Arabia but I'm fecking buzzing.
From Russia, it will conquer the whole world.... Sounds promising.
Russia's national anthem is so good.
WHITES WIN AGAIN!
Russian anthem is a belter, love it.
Definitely a few of these fellas could work as henchmen in the next Bond film.

Imagine standing between Putin and MBS
Makes me want to join the Red Army.
Ignashevish doesn't wanna stop does he ?
?That anthem
Lets go! I’m hyped up like a little child. Russian anthem definitely helps to get excited.
Disappointing performance of the anthem. Felt out of sync to me. Shame, as it's among the best.
Always reminds me of Hunt For Red October.
Yeah I noticed that too.
So who's the Russian Messi and the Saudi Messi in those teams?
Portugal and Argentina ones are my favourites. Shame they only play the disco intro for Argentina in national tournaments.
Great 20 seconds from SA.
I love the graphics so far.
Ronnie Whelan seems surprised the Saudis can pass the ball to each other.
Number 8 in Saudi.
And we're off
The Russian anthem is beautiful. Come on!
Peaked early
As a goal net enthusiast I like what I see here. Nice deep nets.
I want Russia to thump Saudi Arabia.
Remember when Akinfeev was the best keeper in the world on Football Manager?
This is one time i would love to see the hosts go out early.
Mexican wave already? Yuk.
Him and Anthony Van Dan Borre were always my first signings on football manager 2006
SA more impressive than I ever expected (never watch them).
Saudi look quite neat.
Is this the same stadium where the 2008 Champions League final was played? It looks a lot different.
Been knocked down since (rebuilt) apparently.
Saudis have been well drilled. Lots of passing and movement.
It's been rebuilt.
