Day 3: Argentina vs Saudi Arabia | Denmark vs Tunisia | Mexico vs Poland | France vs Australia

Biggest game of the year and our manager got it all wrong. One of the worst 45 minutes we have played and it’s unfortunately in the WC.

Delaney getting injured might be a blessing in disguise. Hopefully we go back to 4-3-3. There’s absolutely no reason to play with 3CBs and this hoofball needs to stop.

we are playing so nervously and just hoofing it up. Just need to get Eriksen in the middle and keep the ball on the ground. So many players getting way too deep and then Dolberg ends up being isolated up top.

The worst thing is Tunisia doesn’t even look good. It’s not like Saudi Arabia who played a blinder.

This is fecking embarrassing. Pro footballers who looks like scared schoolboys. At least go out with some fight…
 
Thanks.

We didn't get overwhelmed and let what have been said around affect us. We executed the game plan perfectly. Let them have the ball and hit them on the break. simple and effective.We enjoy today and focus on the next game tomorrow.

get in Saudia !!
Congratulations. Do you or any Saudi actually foresee this result? Still in disbelief at the biggest upset in World Cup history. Must be crazy party scenes over in Riyadh now. I think the near travelling distance also plays a part, you're basically playing at home.
 
This world cup is Neymar’s for the taking. I hope he bags it

He's been brilliant this season and I feel like he hasn't gotten any credit for it. I would actually like him to do well. He gets way too much unfair hate imo

Can’t seriously want him to win it? Obviously would be good because we have Brazilian players but can’t stand Neymar. Remember when he had a fit when we knocked them out of CL :lol:

The expectations were not to get embarrassed and to win it was out of the ordinary against bloody Leo Messi. Our boys made the history book and this day will not be forgotten ever.

Neymar is class. Take away the play acting he is one of the most entertaining footballers around.

One of the last true entertainers left outside of the robotic machines we have today.
 
I thought Tunisia were terrible at the last World Cup vs England. Stuck 11 behind the ball the entire time.

They've been better today though, more attacking.
 
Tunisians celebrating every pass like they're up 3-0 :lol:

Lovely to see some atmosphere though.
 
The Argentina loss I think emphasizes again that new blood is needed. The likes of Di Maria are too predictable by now, they're unlikely to suddenly show a new level at the World Cup.

It's why I prefer Bellingham to start over someone like Jordan Henderson.
 
Have to say this has been the most enjoyable game of the tournament so far, despite the lack of goals. A real tussle and a great pace to the game.

Why would anyone want Henderson to start?

agree that he’s class. But I’m not a big fan of footballers who do a lot of play acting.

Atmosphere looks dead in most games… not surprised though with the timings that the games are on. Not everyone can go to the stadium as they’ll be working. Wales fans was in good spirits last night though.

Yes, I seriously want him to win it. Neymar is one of the best to have ever played this game. One of my favourite players and one of the very few left that’s cut from a different cloth. None of this “system” bullshit. Just an incredibly talented player that carves teams open and makes football look easy. A true entertainer, and an effective one at that.

The amount of unfair criticism and rep he gets around these parts, only makes me root for him harder.
