The sheer romanticism of a club that has spunked hundreds of millions of pounds in recent years somehow, against all odds, miraculously, unbelievably getting somewhere near the title race. It really is a fairytale; the stuff of dreams. I, for one, find the prospect simply intoxicating.

Hot water bottle, chocolate and a film helps my missus.

The power of the curse in this thread is pretty incredible like. I'd find it funny if it didn't result in losing money. On an unrelated note, I'm on.

48 points so far, going well.

Some decent value there, only concern is the fact they don't have much to play for. Edit: actually Hungary have plenty to play for. Edit II: Ronaldo not playing for Portugal.

96th minute goal brings in Italy and Netherlands win/BTTS for £180. Makes up for being 1 goal away YET AGAIN on:

Today's losers.... To score 2+ goals: Bury, Northampton, Luton.

High octane stuff

...really, really losing.

Losing.

Argies drawing at home to Ecuador too.

Chile didn't even play well there.

Easy.

Not that I can remember. Certainly nothing that would resemble a vaguely challenging save.

I was about to say, he's done more in 5 minutes than those 2 combined.

He's had a good season back home but relying on Ricardo Oliviera in 2015? Oh Brazil.

Also Oscar has been atrocious. Costa and Willian the only ones looking like they give a shit.

What the hell is that from Jefferson? Pathetic keeping.

Football threatening to break out here.

Aguero gone done his hammy.

Costa has been your best player comfortably. Willian is such a good player if he's given the freedom to attack, to which end he's really drawn a blank in the manager lottery for club and country.

Brazil has been better than Chile for 20 minutes of this game, yet we are shit. Hate watching us sit deep when they have the ball. It's not Brazil I'm not saying you should go all out attack but this is quite sad to watch from such a past great nation. Where's the offensive mentality, where's the arrogance, where's the flair?

It's been everything you were yearning for.

Looking forward to seeing your lot in Chile Flip, any predictions?
