The Official World Cup 2018 Megathread

[Deutsch Wolf]

William Caralho is horrendous. Horribly immobile, shit touch and actively tries to avoid the ball. No thank you.

Agreed, he looks awful these days.

 

[Tredman]

Morocco really don't finish well. That should have been it then.

 

[SLB]

As long as it works I guess...

Maybe if Mendes allows us to bench Mario and Guedes we play better next time.

 

[Jinky]

So is that Egypt & Morocco first teams on the plane home already?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Egypt aren't out yet, not officially.

Morocco are as all the possible results in Iran vs Spain rule them out.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Fuck off Pepe. Absolute clown.

William Caralho is horrendous. Horribly immobile, shit touch and actively tries to avoid the ball. No thank you.

He reminds me of Bruno N'Gotty when he rocked up over here old and kind of broken.

They've had a proper England 2014 of a tournament. Not played that badly overall, created plenty, missed plenty, rotten defending on every goal conceded, could have had six points from the first two games, certainly should have had at least one or two, got none and going home inside the first week.

I had genuinely repressed all my memories about that awful week and had no idea what you were on about at first. Its now all come flooding back

Just for anyone who missed Pepe being Pepe:

From all I've been hearing, glad I didn't watch the match. Couldnt play to defend their lives.

Early goal and then offered virtually nothing. Guedes very poor again, Joao Mario invisible. Morocco much the better team but just can't score. One excellent save by Our Rui, there weren't too many other positives. Guerreiro had a shocker and Carvalho is awful.

But it's Fernando Santos and he seems to find a way of winning somehow :icon_lol:

I just had to google what happened in the 2014 World Cup. I couldn't even remember that we went out in the group stages!

What a prick

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Some real top end goalkeeping there.

 

[Nando]

Hello Andy, is that you? Deary me.

Some real top end goalkeeping there.

Lonerganesque lol

 

[Jack Regan]

If the Saudis are this bad, just how appalling are Qatar going to be in 2022?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Luckily by then with the expanded tournament you'll also get to see the likes of Uzbekistan, the UAE, Syria, Uganda and Burkina Faso. I can't wait.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Are Uruguay usually this shit? I always remembered them being competent at least, their midfield is awful though and they make pretty much zero effort to win the ball back as a team, just sit there waiting.

 

[Jinky]

Never seen Cavani have a good game.
