World Cup day 6.

Maybe it'd be worth Egypt putting Salah through the middle. They're sacrificing their right hand side to free Salah of defensive duties and the center forward they have on looks a bit shit.

 

[FoxForceFive]

The Salah you know is surrounded by skillful players who can pass.

True. Dunno if you're watching the BBC coverage but shearer has just done a boss analysis of his first half showing how tentative he's been compared to normal though.

Imo he's better where he is. He can drop into the middle but if he's the central striker all the time he'd have to be a lot more physical & he's clearly reluctant to use his body against the defenders like he usually does.

Safe to say neither of these teams are winning the world cup

Yea that aside, I didn't notice him protecting himself until those highlights. Maybe not a good idea all things considered.

 

[Athens]

It's not that long since he was injured, you can't blame him really.

I’m not pressing play on that gang of cunts.

it's so funny mate - worth a good laugh.

 

[Markeh]

I thought there was a push involved

 

[MomoWASright]

Anything involving that fat smug twat corden will not be funny.

 

[Markeh]

Shit goal

1-0 Russia

 

[Oncy]

I thought there was a push involved

Nah you have to be stronger than that

 

[FoxForceFive]

Nowhere near his best. Would have buried that twice never mind once.

 

[Markeh]

Well that escalated quickly

 

[Athens]

Fuck me, Egypt are folding like superman on laundry day.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Russia could end up being the highest scoring nation this WC if this continues.

Which is mental cos they're really not very good.

It'll make worse for them when they face a decent side

 

[Oncy]

Like men against boys here.

 

[Oncy]

They have a solid back 5 and Golovin and Cheryshev who can create. They will be difficult to beat I reckon

 

[Farkmaster]

Egypt did well to get here, based on all we've seen so far.

 

[Athens]

They have a solid back 5 and Golovin and Cheryshev who can create. They will be difficult to beat I reckon

Plus the big man up above is on their side. Putin, I mean.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

I forgot to mention ... while watching the Senegal-Poland game, the commentators were talking about Senegal was the first African team to score ... I do wonder what part of the world Tunisia is considered? Especially if Morocco & Egypt are considered in Africa?

 

[Farkmaster]

Their back five is slow and I can see it falling apart against a decent passing side. They just haven't faced one yet.

 

[Markeh]

Russia are likely to face Spain or Portugal in the next round I think

 

[Athens]

Penalty?

 

[Athens]

Peno to Egypt!

 

[Markeh]

Mo wins a pen

 

[Markeh]

Mo scores a pen

 

[Markeh]

Another Egypt goal makes it interesting
