SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2022/23

I saw some shitehawk on YouTube trying to describe what Ronaldo did as a classic case of an employee badmouthing his employer and therefore he MUST GO simple as

Ummm..... It's a bit more complex than that

 

I think on current form he is. If Sterling is considered England material then Toney absolutely should be too.

 

Am glad Callum Wilson is there. Always rated him, thought injuries would stop him.

 

I think Foden is the one who will have the biggest tournament for you guys.

 

Agreed and I hope so. He's the most talented member of the squad and is on fire for City, the question is whether Southgate will play him properly and let him off the leash. Unfortunately the precedent is to do the exact opposite.

 

That useless negative tit will probably play him in goal.

MTF

 

Lmao

 

Benzema injured, and out.

 

Sterling can't be dropped for political reasons

 

DIE!

 

Gianni Infantino gone mad

 

If there was ever a WC "up for grabs" it's this one, although you would have to figure one of the big sides manages it. Climate might favor a South American side.

 

Soo you're officially predicting Poland then?

 

Poland are in a group i think they could finish 3rd in.

Finishing 3rd is good

Until you remember there's 4 teams per group and one of them is Saudi Arabia.

Poland got their work cut out just escaping that group.

 

Yeah. Good lad.. if there's one team I want England to absolutely fustigate, it's this lot....

 

England v Iran comes on at 8am NY time, so I'll have to record it because I'll miss the first 30 mins dropping my kid off to school.

Then USA v Wales comes on at the same time I have a fucking work Zoom meeting, so I'll have to miss the start of that as well.

 

Poland vs Mexico gonna be a good one.

 

Yup. Even criticising him results in cancellation. Which is unfortunate, because I maintain that he is basically a sprinter in a pair of football boots. Amazing how his output has dropped now that he isn't playing for a team which creates 20+ sitters per game.

MTF

 

Sterling comes across as like a Zab Judah of football. More speed and affflectism than skill.

 

He's not a great player

 

Not relative to European level, no.

When his athletic gifts decline, he can always come to this side of the pond and be a God.

 

Yall watching Qatar vs Ecuador in a few hrs?

 

"I feel uhhhh, gay."

 

The U.S. media is absolutely comical covering this thing. It's fucking alarming how little they know about world football. I thought the mainstream boxing coverage was bad, but they're boxing historians compared to this shit. It's kind of sad that U.S. pundits know fuck all if it's not American football, basketball, or baseball. Like they do not comprehend ANY OTHER sports.

 

This shit looks like a Naz ringwalk.

 

Are Qatararian women allowed to watch this shit?

 

Probably lose one finger if they do.

 

, are you talking about a tv broadcast or online publication, what kinds of things are they saying?

 

They got Clint Dempsey calling this thing. This guy is a Caleb Plant-like wannabe.
