Bit early for England to be hanging on.
What a washout. French didn't seem to have a game plan. I don't blame Mbappe although he was caught offside far too often. At least he showed some...
I'm taking Spain, possession will be key, Rabiot and Tschouameni will be chasing shadows... if France are to win they will have to be very...
I thought England looked awful, they seem to only play in moments, good thing that they have two players who are perfect for those cometh the hour...
England fortunate not to be behind, Norway could or should have another goal or two. Bellingham is pretty special, Madueke not so much. Barcelona...
England-Norway has real Premier League vibes, it's a good matchup for England. It probably won't be comfortable for them however because that's...
The Mbappe who plays for the French national team is a different player to the club Mbappe. He works much harder. That is a big credit to...
Spain (sorry Belgium) Vs France is effectively the final...there are levels, and England not at it, not are Argentina imo
Moroccans trying to keep it tight in the hope they get one break or set piece. Hopefully they won't. Olise has been quiet enough.
Pulisic has always been inconsistent, his best year was 2025 but his recent club form has been poor. Couldn't keep a place in the Chelsea squad....
Crap game, no end product for either team. Just go to penalties.
Hard to reconcile some of the gym footage and stories with occasionally very crude, clubbing attack but he had undeniable power and though you...
Switzerland minus Manzambi are a tough watch. Colombia are defensively sound but hard to imagine any team with a walking pace James Rodriguez...
Crazy end, but it's only the last 16, how much does Argentina have in the tank...? Not great for AFCON countries, and then there was one...
Spanish press (cool temp helped) and defence looked v good though and they can still hold on to the ball better than any other team in the...
The trouble is that Portugal don't even know how to create scoring opportunities in these kinds of games because the game plan has been based on...
Portugal have been playing with 10 men, not exactly a fresh take, but he's not even much of a target anymore because he makes so few runs
Fuck Paraguay, it was funny how butthurt they were in the end that the strategy to spoil for 120 min and get to penalties didn't work out. France...
I think USA can beat Belgium, it's 50-50. Belgium are nothing special. France are great to watch so I hope they win. Spain are the absolute...
Sane's best days are past, he's lost some pace and that was his greatest asset. Pretty even first half. That German team won't go too far.
They should beat Saudi if they are any good, looks like they are short up front this time around, I do t think Darwin Nunez is going to be winning...
Good thread, one of those fighters with great rewatchability, vulnerable enough to always keep things interesting
Spain looked very stale, the dynamism of the Williams-Yamal partnership is what won them the euros but neither are in the beat form or shape going...
"At this moment in time" is such an ex-footballer pundit go-to. I presume it's just a bit of a word salad that helps to connect one thought to the...
Looks like they signed on O'Neill for another year at Celtic. The cynic might argue that this allows them to say they responded to the fans, while...
Houghton!!
The temperature will slow it down majorly, which is why I would write off England. Plus form notwithstanding, it's a mistake not to bring Palmer...
He's too unstable and has a ridiculously high opinion of himself, he make Roy Keane football manager look like Carlo Ancelotti. Players will only...
I wonder if Celtic masses will take to Robbie Keane, who is more respected than loved in Ireland after all his international goals. Alongside his...
Kvaratshkelia will be punished for Georgia not playing in the world cup. If Kane scores a hatful and England and they get to say the semi finals,...
Separate names with a comma.
