SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2023/2024

Would LOVE IT LOVE IT if the pens are at Slovenia fans end of the stadium......

 

Some rare humility from the greaser

 

Fuckssake

 

USA knocked out of Copa America by Uruguay.

Thank God. Bunch of overrated fuckin hacks.

 

Spain looked really good vs Georgia...almost looked like club fitbaw

 

Entertaining game so far between Romania and the Netherlands. Romania handling themselves well.

 

Gakpo 1-0

 

The Romanian last ditch defending has been incredible, I have to say. I don't even think the Dutch have been particularly wasteful either. Romania always make the wrong decisions up the other end though.

 

Nah I think you're generous to the Dutch. The Romanians have been shit. They were 20/1 to win after 46,47 minutes at 1-0 down . Awful.

 

Ref bottled it.

 

The Dutch HAVE been really wasteful the last 20-odd minutes I have to say. Romania get in good positions but always try to take an extra touch. Just fucking twat it.

 

So that's it now barring some bullshit tonight until this Saturday.

Don't worry, Lineker says, cos there's always WIMBLEDON.

ha!

Edit:- tonight's game could be the sauciest yet.

 

Some start to this game. That crowd is something else.

 

Turkish dogs the lorradem.

 

This has been a belting game. All Austria, really, but Turkey have defended bravely.

MTF

 

What a fucking save that was!

MTF

 

Genuinely gutted that Austria didn't get an equaliser, simply because I could have watched that all night. A brilliant game of football, that.

MTF

 

Turkey are playing again in 4 days.

 

Baumgartner could have done a lot lot better.

 

Stop being churlish, you miserable old cunt He should have scored but you save those 1 in a 100 times. It was a fantastic save.

MTF

 

Turkey tend to be fun to watch in major tournaments. I think it was 2008 when they were involved in the wackiest fucking games.

 

Perhaps but if that's Kane what are you saying? Good save or ###@£_!!#@

 

That was such a good game last night. That save at the end was superb. Turkey corners giving Austria fits all night.

 

A crazy fact about the Slovakia game

Phil Foden exchanged zero passes either to or from Kane or Bellingham

The pass map just has two completely missing lines

Whats southgates job if it isnt addressing neon flashing problems like that

 

So they didn't pass to him and he didn't pass to them?

 

Gareth's Job is to make sure the FA successfully negotiate all manner of potential problems and maybe win something. As far as winning goes the team is kind of on autopilot. That's of secondary importance.

 

Criminal at this level that corners be so problematic for defenders. 3 goals all from badly defended crosses.

Again nothing on the evidence of last night's football for England to panic about.

 

Not a once. Which is pretty incredible

 

My picks:

Spain 2-2 Germany AET - Germany win on pens
