The Official World Cup 2018 Megathread

[Jack Regan]

Excellent goal, Poland have been real dreck though.

 

[Nando]

I'm impressed with Yerry Mina, he looks a beast at the back and decent on the ball. Can see why Barca paid the money for him.

He's been an absolute bombscare for them when he's played. Played well tonight though, to be fair to him.

Delighted for Falcao. Without doubt the best out and out striker in the world when he was at his peak and he's done well to recover from that horror injury and two desperate seasons over here.

 

[Nando]

Oh my. What a pass.

 

[Jack Regan]

Another one, shocking defending. Colombia got the killer touch working perfectly though.

 

[Dire Wolf]

Goal of the tournament. Absolutely brilliant.

 

[Alan]

Outstanding. How did he even know Cuadrado would be there??

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Urgggggghhh

Yep - work is going to be horrid. If any of them turn up at all.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Goal of the tournament. Absolutely brilliant.

Nah

It's decent. The pass is lovely, but goal of the tournament is a step too far by a good distance.

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

Let's hope we avoid Colombia in the next round.

Although, presuming Japan beat Poland, they would have to still beat Senegal to qualify.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Poland are just way too committed to getting everyone forward, it's like they've selected All Out Attack on FIFA.

Colombia have incredible pace and are exploiting the gaps with ease. Cuadrados goal was quality

 

[Dire Wolf]

I think both of these sides are pretty dull. Poland are the poorer by a country mile, though.

If you think Colombia are dull you need new eyes...

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

England will beat anyone in this group. At least 9 times out of ten. Maybe cast your mind back to their "performance" against Japan.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

If you think Colombia are dull you need new eyes...

No I don't.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Plus let's remember that Japan and Senegal are both ahead of them whatever. Japan beat Poland who will be on the plane and Colombia have to win or they are still out.

 

[Dire Wolf]

No I don't.

So you're going to stick with your analysis that they are dull? Note to self: ignore every opinion this poster has...

 

[Jinky]

Falcao.

Wonder if Wolves might ask a question there? Client of Mendes. Plays for one of the Mendes clubs (Monaco). Has a point to prove in the PL. Scored goals for fun over the last couple of seasons. We need a forward. He holds the ball up and links play well.

Wages would probably be the main stumbling block, I suppose. That & the fact his resale value probably wouldn't be fantastic. Stranger things have happened, though!

To be fair they were down to ten men for 86 minutes.

You did watch their first game didn't you.

Note to self. Revel in being ignored.

 

[Dire Wolf]

Haha... come out with a stupid opinion and entrench yourself deeper even against the evidence in front of you. You're a piece of work! As someone pointed out, the last game they were down to 10 men for 86 minutes. Did you base your opinion on Wolves last season on only the Sheff Utd game where Coady was sent off early?

 

[Alan]

This might be the best James has played since 2014.
