That second XI

Yeah, this isn't just minor opposition. It's an actual pub team. San Marino would turn them over. And Nigera were pretty poor. So greedy in front of goal, barely anyone was passing or making runs for one and other. They seemed to have some obsession with rounding the keeper? Every time they did bother to work the ball and run into the channel they carved through like a hot knife through air.

An Emile Heskey turn

Is more akin to the executive equivalent of taking a huge shit in the centre circle.

Clumsy T. Silva.

I had loads when CO-OP were selling it for peanuts.

Weighing up what I've seen, I reckon this group ranks as: Italy Brazil Mexico Japan Anyone disagree?

Webb bossing this game

I really enjoy Lawro's angst. Makes a change.

Brazilian fans treating Neymar like he's Justin Beiber. Booing Webb ffs, panto

Overrated People will still persist with that though, using any slight mistake he makes to show how right they are about him. Guy was the pits every time I'd seen him play until this tournament. Has shown much more in a few departments in this tournament. Mainly impressed with his link-up play. Needs to cut out the diving or risk being another Barcelona cunt.

Reckon Mexico will nick one, but Brazil will bang another couple in during the second half.

No need to throw yourself into the air

Neymar has a broken back!

Wow. Control on that volley is just perfect.

Offside, but a quality delivery by Neymar.

Would be better if the thread was titled just "Michael."

Amazing work

Well obviously, that's why I said 'if those are the options'. Jesus was weaping tears of blood at having to make a decision based on those options. At least in my head.

I think the point is that there is no acceptable outcome. Pearce, no. Pardew, no. Joe, no.

If they are the options, I would do anything to get Stuart Pearce. tbqh, http://img.pandawhale.com/53239-seinfeld-gif-Tsbh.gif
