Funny day today. The games were good and enjoyable to watch but mad results, and not many goals scored.

Tomorrow the mighty England enter the fray.

SWEDEN VS SOUTH KOREA 1pm

BELGIUM VS PANAMA 4pm

ENGLAND VS TUNISIA 7pm

The way things are
Going anything could happen.
Im saying England and Belgium win sharing 7 goals between them
 
Yea. Every match I’ve seen has been fairly good or very good or excellent. Most teams are going for it.
 
Best WC in a million years.

You can't fault Brazil for showboating. It's what they do.

A bit like how England qualify for the knockout rounds and get knocked out by penalties later.

Status quo.
 
Last world cup had the best group rounds I can remember and then became really dull in the knockout stages, Germanys ethering of Brazil aside. This has probably had more close games so far, hope it continues in this vein.

They arent adding flourishes to good football though. The monumental view of football that seems to be all the rage, where it's Messi vs and Ronaldo vs etc. has always been understandable, but a bit silly. You see though, with neymar, a player that seems to be even more aware of the focus on him than any other player, and he actually expresses it in his play, which was fucking shite. There's a long and proud history of Brazilians showboating, but they did it while deep dicking the opposition, and they knew when they needed to buckle down. Neymar should have been hauled off in that game, fairly early.
 
It was something in the papers that South Korea har been changing shirt numbers on their player frequently so that Swedish scout would be unable to see who is who and identity weaknesses and strengths. They also played with different formation in last 4-5 games to avoid giving away any information. Clever guys😀

I miss the days of old when your first teamsheet has names like Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Roberto Carlos and Gilberto Silva, and the likes of Kaka, Denilson and Juninho on your bench. That was an insane team. Joga Bonito at its finest.

Denilson made Neymar look like Souness, the softest of soft lads.
 
Ive been so put off England for the last 10 years and the stupid circus around it,

However, I am finding this new setup with Gareth Southgate more refreshing, he seems more open and there doesnt seem to be any fanfare around this team....

If they can play as a unit like the did in 90 I dont see why we cant see a decent showing... less about individuals and more about the team as a whole.

Rashford to be the player who surprises for me, that kid really has got something special (shame he plays for the scummers)
 
One of the reasons I want England out asap is because of the media. In the 82nd minute of Germany Mexico the commentary team were chatting about England’s chances instead of the actual game in front of us. There was a great game going on and they were chatting about a match that kicks off a day later.
