The Official World Cup 2018 Megathread

Yeah I really like RLC. He can improve further too which is promising. I think in games where we need someone to open up the middle of the pitch he could be very handy in this tournament

 

[Jinky]

RLC is an absolute Rolls Royce of a footballer. Evidence a minute ago of that - cute little flick around the corner to Danny Welbeck, who allows the ball to bounce off his shin and loses possession.

Ian Smith??? How Costa Rican is he???

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I can deal with Welbeck when he's on form for all his rough edges, because he does offer something. He's been shite for club and country for ages now though.

The old versatility argument has got him in, however that's no use if you don't actually want to use him in any of the positions he can allegedly play. Plus we've brought him on as a central striker in these two games, he hardly ever plays there at club level.

Great ball by Ali

Danny Welbeck England legend!

 

[Johnny75]

What the fuck do we all know.

 

[YoungWolf]

Of course he would score! Good play by Alli and Rashford

 

[Boozad]

Hoddle in two minds whether Alli crossed that or was trying a shot. Fucking thraper.

 

[Tony Towner]

Portugal goals Guedes (2), Fernandes, I'd not heard of either of them a fortnight ago. Being a Wolves fan now broadens your football knowledge.

 

[Tredman]

Delph has looked good.

This was a great tweet from a Citeh fan:

Saw that earlier, it did give me a chuckle.

Delph has looked good.

Looks miles better in the deep centre mid role instead of Henderson.

 

[Alan]

This is so disappointing from Costa Rica. Shite effort all around. They're easily the closest to Mexico from CONCACAF but they'll get nothing from the group stage if they turn up like this.

 

[Tredman]

Looks miles better in the deep centre mid role instead of Henderson.

His passing and speed of thought has definitely improved this season.

 

[YoungWolf]

Three of their key players have struggled this season really though haven't they? They've not been in great shape since they qualified

 

[YoungWolf]

His passing and speed of thought has definitely improved this season.

Pep working his magic! I actually thought Henderson's one touch play was far better tonight too though.
