Better group than Japan so he's happy, Korean mackems.

Yeah, I'm just imagining the carnage of towns and cities up and down the country as people drink for 14 hours BEFORE kick off. Super sweet.

I am well up for a 2am kick off mind, should be sweet

A reminder of how Hodgson thinks is a good way to play against Italy. Although another draw would be good this time.

Uruguay had a decent Confederations Cup just 5 months ago. Qualifying is always difficult when you have to play in altitude against 4 of the 9 teams and the other two are Colombia and Argentina. Not saying they played well or so, but I see them as favourites. If Lodeiro plays I can see them winning that group. They had that stupid group with Tahiti and Nigeria. The only time I've seen them play well in the last 2 years was the semi against Brazil, their midfield is too limited and defence is creaking. People are dazzled by their strikers but they're a safety first team who just sort of let the strikers get on with it. England are stronger than them in most areas.

Uruguay were nothing special in qualifying and have looked poor for 18 months or so, too many aging players. Italy are the strongest side in the group, England could get through over Uruguay.

Italy will top the group. Uruguay is our chance.

Massively underserved that like, Oxford have been shite.

It is like. Don't know if I will be able to hack extra time. forgot about that NEE ONE'S FORCING YOU TO WATCH IT Y'KNA.. James watches Scottish football semi-regularly, he's enjoying this 100%

They should do. 4th is the best they can hope for though, top 3 are nailed down now.

Well I'll be in Manchester so probably won't be reading the forum. You gonna wake up early down there to watch it? Must be becoming a bit of a chore now, not really what you signed up for.

Just decide white is your favourite colour and start supporting Real Madrid instead, would be easier.

Can't really bask in anything though, they're still better than us and still have more league titles than anybody else. They've got that to fall back on for as long as they like. Nothing changes amonst the cunts who only support them to brag about success they have no right to be part of.

Godawful shitpile of a player

Don't use your own eyes to judge things man. Just look at the league table and gan to bed. Avoid games altogether and then check the score at full time, nodding with approval at 1-0 home wins. This is how I imagine Pardew supporters follow NUFC The result is the absolute and nothing else matters at all times.

He's a shitcunt, nowt changed during the little run of wins.

Excellent thread to make days before we play them away.

Would say that is an excellent summarisation tbh, nothing kneejerk about it.

Lucky/boring Swansea making lots of passes, applying pressure and creating chances. Lucky bastards, why didn't they give in to our gameplan of trying to engineer rope-a-dope victories by the tiniest of margins?

Somebody's edited his Wiki because he's 5 ft 9

That Stan thing is quality. I mean, mental, but very good on the whole.

No title challenge option?

I would fucking love Baku away.
