The Official FIFA World Cup 2022 Megathread

[Tony Towner]

Rare a player of Moutinho's prestige gets retired rather than it being their own choice

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Ross's Dad from Friends already tried it once in 2018. When we first signed him he didn't get in any squads for months.

Woy retired Ashley Cole in 2014.

fair play Denmark.
fifa look like right tossers not being in support of human rights for all.
For shame.

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

FIFA just look like a bunch of cunts yet again.

 

[Tony Towner]

They haven't really got anywhere to go. Should have taken it off them as soon as the bungs became official, didn't then, didn't when it got moved to the winter, their only play now is to close their eyes. England have been weak compared to a lot of other nations on human rights abuses in general

Mexico squad announced yet ?

 

[Tony Towner]

They are at 31, cut down is on Sunday

Sa, Neves and Mattheus in Portugal squad.

 

[Tony Towner]

Looking at the Portugal squad there's a certain irony that Moutinho has lost his place to Vitinha, but that didn't happen at Wolves because Nuno flogged him into the ground.

There are as many ex Wolves players in it as current

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

I’m still annoyed we didn’t sign Vitinha or use him properly when we had him.

 

[Tony Towner]

Not signing him was clearly the wrong decision, but I don't blame them for not doing so based on what we'd seen. That ones on Nuno imo

Quite the stat that about the Portugal squad. Huge fan of Nuno as I am, can only agree with the comments on Vitinha.

I must be in the minority as I thought he was decent in the little time we had him

It was a huge mistake.

Me too. It was obvious he had something about him, but was being used too deep at the time. He'd be perfect for our no.10 role nowadays.

"I'm not from here! I have my own customs! Look at my ~crazy~ passport!"

I'm listening to you Alan. I'm also listening to your sport commentators who 'call a game', remark on certain players who never have great speed but they do have 'great quickness!'...

It may have been mentioned before...

It's amusing me that you posted that like we'd all be in the dark about it.

 

[1986]

Neves and Hwang will probably be the only players who will see a fair bit of action . Sa won't , Nunes hardly either .

And - they might all be home early .

 

[Kenny]

I'm wishing ill-will on....Uruguay for releasing theirs on an image which is either out of focus or has a really crap resolution.

They have read this and done this for you
