World Cupski 2018 Thread 18:04 - May 20 with 108234 viewsLblock

I’ve been pretty non plussed about the Copa Mundial this year which is unusual as I’ve always loved it. Perhaps FIFA have contributed to my overall “fcuk it” view to the modern game, I’ve never felt so remote from a tournament Inger-Lund have been in.
Part of me hopes it lives up to the scam it is with Russia being awarded 317 penalties in the group stages, empty stadiums with Escape To Victory dubbed crowd cheering noises all capped off with a plucky squad of kids winning it so rhino nose becomes Sir Gareth

Current questions for those buzzing about it or who simply know:-

1. Any good Apps for iPhone anyone come across? (Preferably free)

2. Can anyone recommend a Fantasy Competition for the tournament? I’ve been asked to run one at work; think the Sun used to do a simple one; no idea if they are as I haven’t bought a newspaper this decade.

3. Any players people recommend sticking in above / hidden jems????

4. What fixtures do we think are ones to make an effort to watch out of the current group stages? May have to organise work schedule and ensure a regular spot in The Leicester Arms on Warwick Street for any midweek afternoon games

5. What nation picks up the Jules Rimet this year for you? I’m thinking probably Germany but the last time they tried to conquer all the Russia issue didn’t work out well for them

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

For reasons that are unclear even to me, I've backed Australia in every game so far, including against France... I've just come to terms with the fact they really are as terrible as everyone keeps telling me.

It's fair to say that that the Luongo World Cup dividend is somewhat akin to the Brexit dividend in that it's entirely a figment of the imagination.

Poll: QPR to finish 7th or Brentford to drop out of the top 6?

Mass coming home safe and sound. Ignored again by a manager who thinks everyone should be like Mark van Bommel.

Just goes to show a championship team can make the world cup if they have non league opponents in qualifying

Thank gawd we didn't sign Leckie as was rumoured at some point...

Can’t stand the Argentine side, saved by handling the ball again. I hope the French actually play to their strengths and knock them out.

France please smash this awful team of c*nts, scraping past Nigeria and Iceland despite some world class players. I want to see Maradona crying tears of pure gear out of stupid fat head.

Gutted.... yet again

How have the Argies managed that??

Maradona is hilarious isn’t he?
Apparently rushed to hospital with exhaustion don’t you know. I’ve had some big nights out, but I don’t think I’ve ever been as exhausted as he appears to have been this evening

Geezer in work scripted it to me today, said those swines would scrape through and then win the bloody thing
Bring em on!!!

Ha, well put.

They should have enough to put Argentina away, but again they probably won't need to get out of second gear. A real shame they haven't got a more attacking-minded coach, I think Deschamps is holding them back.

So I expect France, Croatia and Spain to make the Quarters. Uruguay v Portugal a close call but I think Uruguay might do a number on them - they have yet to concede a goal.

Ugh, just when it was all looking so good it's all reverting to pretty much type isn't it?
Germany getting that last minute winner on Sunday, seconds from being out and another bang average Argentina team with one star player, getting theirs last night. You just know the Germans will now win their group and avoid a meeting with Brazil and make yet another bloody final. You just know France will somehow cock it up against Argentina, probably on penalties. When will these team's luck ever run out?

I feel sorry for the Swede's but I really hope Mexico run through them today. Don't see much hope for South Korea. England to lose to Columbia on penalties?

South Korea giving Germany a good game here so far. Neuer looked very nervy before, spilling a 30 yard free kick almost into the path of Son

... and then Son completely misses the target from about 10 yards
