IMO Oscar, Luiz and Gustavo were Brazil's best players overall. The rest were average at best. Alves, Cesar, Fred and Hulk are a waste of space and not up to Brazil's usually high standards. Would like to see more of Ramires. I reckon he would have had a better effect against Croatia than Paulinho did last night.

Scolari is 100% convinced it was a penalty "We also think it was a penalty. I have seen it 10 times and I think it is a penalty." What an odious cunt. Tell it like it is man. Seriously the OTT theatrics by Brazil will inevitably saturate this edition of the world cup, and I hope they get either a footballing lesson off someone, or a couple of shit/dodgy decisions go against them to bring them back down to earth. And then I will wait for Scolari's reaction. Amazing country, amazing players, amazing people, the worst footballing twat mentality.

Cannavaro said after the game that 'FIFA rules' say that you can't touch the keeper in the 6-yard box? In which case it is a foul but it's a f***ing stupid rule Rule has been around for ages. That's what the 6 yard line is there for. That said, I'm not even sure that qualified last night. Agreed. Cesar was shockingly bad in that particular play and got away with it. Who the fuck starts a keeper that had barely played 5 minutes the entire season just before hosting the world cup? He was rusty and shaky and it showed.

any updates from last night?

Same here. This version is utter shit, and a complete waste of time. Wish I had saved the 2 quid to get 2 blowjobs from a crackwhore on consecutive nights. Far better than this shit.

THIS x 100000

Lynsey Hipgrave. She's been good whenever I've seen her on other shows like. Shame that she's a mackem though. There's also Kay Murray but she's from smogside. Her twitter bio: "BT Sport Presenter, Danny Baker's loyal servant on 5 Live and fully paid up member of the Toon Army!" Interdasting. Sure I'd seen her don a mackem kit a couple of times. Google images confirms that. Guess maybe it was out of context.

Blatter the corrupt or Platini the gas money addict. Such great alternatives. No difference whatsoever. Yay for democracy

Did this Nicollin asshole do the air quotation marks when he said: "The 'big' English club Newcastle"?

This is some serious s***! Who's tweeting this? As in, how credible are they?

Reminded me of the MYM sending off for a similar "offence" on Suarez. The only difference is that he was running back trying to catch up to the diving fairy and his silky soft touch will have thrown the racist wildly off balance.

nah nah. no way. nah.

I'd be very happy with this. If it means what I think it means!

Storm in a tea cup. Fabregas is overrated as fuck. He is nowhere near the player that played for Arsenal the season before he was sold. 30 million was it they paid? Fuck off.

The ref couldn't wait to blow the whistle for the penalty. The Brazilian players as usual thanking "God" for awarding them a penalty, dropping down to their knees to thank him for rigged match officials. Also enjoyed how arrogant Neymar's celebration was even though the keeper actually saved his s*** penalty and was unlucky not to keep it out. The OTT theatrics by Brazil are back again, and tbh I find them completely off-putting. This is football ffs, not the theatre.

Pm'd you. cheers

fucking password already man! if payment has been received that is.

Paid. Password PM sharpish please.

Such a nice guy at times, Pata. If I didn't know better I'd be offended. Pata's right

In terms of international competitions, it's still eclipsed by the Euros in that regard. IMO. But yeah, it doesn't get any better than this. I'm not sure the Euro eclipses it tbh. I think the World Cup has shown recently that teams all over the world are much closer to the UEFA now than they used too in terms of quality. I mean sure group stages the Euros is stronger but that's also because it's only 16 teams, but compare the quarter-finals in the WC to the quarter-finals in the Euros and I think the standard in the WC is much better. Flip with an opinion on LITERALLY EVERYTHING in this thread Sweden didn't qualify. Let him at least have his opinion on literally everything as consolation.

Just figured out how to record on my BeIn Sport humax decoder. Will record the 4am matches and watch them when convenient. Fucking brilliant this technology lark!
