Kaizero Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Reading the pundits take on Iceland’s chances is baffling. They write off their chances against, Argentina, which is fair enough. But then they say they have no chance against Croatia. Croatia. Also known as the country Iceland beat and placed above in the qualifiers for this World Cup. Do some research before pretending you know shit, pundits. God damn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do some research before pretending you know shit, pundits. God damn.  Aye. Iceland won't be an easy game for anyone I think, got a very tight and disciplined unit with fantastic team spirit. The players work really for one another and it's hard to break them down. I had kind of written off their Euro glory as a fluke and a once in a lifetime thing, but they played fantastically in the World Cup qualifiers and deservedly won their group. Still think Argentina and Croatia will go through but anything can happen, Argentina and Croatia weren't exactly convincing during the qualifiers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 We’ll finish 2nd in that group, I think Belgium will be too much for us. Group F, fucking hell, group of death that one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More that i’m incredibly annoyed at pundits saying Croatia is much stronger - makes me certain they don’t even know they were in the same qualifying group Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do some research before pretending you know s***, pundits. God damn. Maybe we are listening to different pundits, but everyone I have heard has mentioned Group D as probably the most even and competitive in the tournament. Iceland are respected, though not favoured to advance. Most of the pundits will not have seen Iceland (or Nigeria, tbf) play at all in this cycle. Croatia are favourites because they have big names at big clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceland are respected, though not favoured to advance.  The amount of pundits out there makes it very likely we’ll have listened to different ones. You seem to have found reasonable pundits.  Honestly think that group is the hardest to call, mainly because Argentina hasn’t been showing great form. The other three teams are pretty even, so if there’s an early upset against Argentina the group will be wide open. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Cabaye signed for PSG in the January before the last World Cup. The sixth was Loic Remy, though obviously he was only on loan and so at the time of the World Cup would never play for us again.

Disco Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Potentially 2. In the unlikely event Benevento stop being the worst team ever old Achraf might get a shout. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Extremely happy. Brazil v Costa Rica Germany v Mexico Messi v Nigeria Cristiano v Morocco The tickets I got. The last two games suck, but the fact I'll get to watch those two in probably their last WC is a dream.  Class that. You reckon young Malcom has any chance of getting in your squad? Seems to be on fire and scored an outrageous goal tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
