I think the whole world does (bar Brazil obviously).

Undoubtedly he’s an absolute talent but the love in is too much. His spent his career in a poor league against a mixed bag of defenders, and is currently giving a full back who plays in the SPL a tough time.

France look decent but certainly not unbeatable if we end up playing them in the Quarters. Plus, I’m sure someone will probably tell me they do all sorts of charity stuff etc, but Deschamps and Mbappe always strike me as tossers. You can definitely get in the latters head too.

Next game up - Netherlands v Senegal. Stadium capacity is 40,000 and isn’t even half full according to the commenters. Best WC ever though according to Infantino…..

Head injury aside because that was horrific, they’ve definitely looking to waste as much time as possible. And going for the aggressive tackles. And fouls at this point too!

What is the point of VAR if it looks at that and decides no foul.

Re the armband, the FA’s excuse is not to put players in that position. Why not let Kane and the players decide? I get the risk and inevitable frustration if he were to pick up a second booking. But in my view it’s worth the risk, even if just for the first game to make a statement. And if he...

Qatar keeper has to be the worst to play at a WC by some distance.

That is an absolutely obvious kickback. Not even subtle. Even Dion can’t find a reason that was disallowed. Seems the officials took the bribe then.

Like I said yesterday, not being able to use my phone for essentially the last week couldn’t have come at a worse time. Finally caught up with the relevant threads and a few messages. What a rollercoaster! Ideal world I personally wouldn’t want MA, but he’s here now, so welcome. And Office...

What a shit time to be so ill I’ve not been able to check SBT (or anything) for a good few days. I’ve got God knows how many pages on the Wasps Admin to read and now this whole new thread! I haven’t read back other than a few posts and I see some cynicism, but surely it’s a good thing. Ideally...

True, let’s hope he adapts that today or we just get COH running at him. Either way I hope we exploit it. Also love how most responses have questioned if he’ll even be fit - another good point!

I know JCS became Maldini after he left, but hopefully we’ve just watched the game v Luton last year and told Vik to bully him in the exact same way Luton’s bang average striker did. 2-0, Gyokeres, Hamer.

Last Tuesday two blokes left their seats for a beer after 23 minutes and didn’t return until ~65 minutes. Head says great - it’s ticket sales to the club. Heart say what is the point? How is that in anyway supporting the team and players. Re the OP; I’ve never understood people leaving early.

Yea I’ll be watching it. Not sure why you think I wouldn’t be.

The MR our narrative will be pushed again if we lose a few games after the WC break. Or, if we continue to do well, it’ll be pushed again next season. How many seasons has it been raised now? It’ll always be lingering until it happens.

Would absolutely love it if this happened. I enjoy watching England at tournaments and despite Southgates likely negative tactics, we have a good chance of progressing. However, would be happy to sacrifice all that if a world stance was taken at such a high profile event to show how backwards...

Remember when we were relegation fodder?

That really is top class, from the first touch, turn, direct running and then composed finish. Without doubt the best striker we’ve had in a long long time.

Appreciate we’ve scored since the changes but we’ve also lost our dominance.
