Drowned in this forum somewhere.Hey what about day 10 first please
Ok thanks
Erm why?
Stupid decision from Scaloni. Why change a winning team? Martinez was immense against Mexico.
Err what? Are those leaks?
Poland v Argentina, of course. It could be Messi's last WC game, and even a win doesn't guarantee them passage if the Saudis thrash Mexico.
If France beats Tunisia as expected, then then a win sees Denmark through. I'd watch Denmark v Australia for Eriksen and Mejbri.
Yea since Lucas Hernandez got injured Camavinga is the backup LB, he's the only leftie who can fit the position, I dont think he ever played there though, we'll see how it works. Fofana should be sitting the deepest with Tchouaméni and Guendouzi in front of him I suppose.
Very interesting, it's more or less a knockout match with Australia needing a draw to go through (because let's face it, Tunisia aren't going to beat France) and Denmark a win or elimination. I expect impostor AFC to put up a good fight and I wouldn't be surprised at all if they manage a draw. I still think Denmark will win comfortably, though.
im rooting for the Danes, munching on Danish biscuit
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.
If Argentina wins, they have 6 points over Poland's 4. A Saudi win puts them at 6 points, too, and GD determines group winner, but the Argies still advance.
I'm surprised it's not just Kounde, even if you're sacrificing some attacking play. Could use him to help out the middle and push Griezmann a few yards higher.
These odds don’t make sense unless France draw + Denmark win double is evens.Gut feeling
Poland/Argentina - draw
KSA win against Mexico
France/Tunisia - draw
Denmark win against Australia
40/1
Think I'll just do a Poland/Argentina draw and KSA win double at 20/1
Ah crap, you're right. I took the France win odds instead of the draw odds.
(if my maths is correct)Yeah, I'm not super optimistic either. In general, Hjulmand has been way too cautious this tournament. There was no need to have three CB's constantly behind the ball against Tunesia, we should have gone for a 4-3-3. It's the same against Australia, and I'm convinced we'll have three at the back again. It also bugs me that Hjulmand won't admit we're favourites and should be winning. Not one player from the Aussies would get into our squad and it'd be a fiasco if we didn't win. But I fear we won't.
I think Argentina will still beat Poland anyway without Martinez as Poland's midfield is too weak to feed Lewandowski. I doubt Saudi Arabia will beat Mexico so Argentina could still go through with a draw but Argentina better beat Poland to win this group as I don't see them beating France now at such an early stage in current form. They will only get better as they go deeper in the tournament.
Camavinga left back???? Wow.
draw not enough for Argentina ?
To be honest which team is so convincing, they will steamroll any team they faced ?
True that.
France.
I'd be resting Mbappe and Tchouameni. Not sure why he'd even take the risk with either of them getting injured in what is a meaningless game.
