Fedyan Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I bet these guys can't eat and sleep having to watch matches of a club that is forced to play in the same league as Chelsea and Bournemouth Been to South Korea, lovely place. Know a few people who went there for the World Cup in 2002. Great memories. Some people, man. :lol:Trump FFS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

louistoon Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I've never been this disinterested in a World Cup before. Combination of general disillusionment in Football, us being s***, us being in a s*** group, and Russia being a s*** place. Been there? Heard so much good about Russia (or at least Moscow and St Petersburg), or is this just some ignorant opinion based on what you've read online? Russia is an abhorrent country that does horrible things to its people. It’s also the worst possible spot for an international sporting event given its well recorded history of state-sponsored cheating. If you can ignore all of that I suppose it might be a nice tourist spot, but I have no interest in it whatsoever. I don't disagree, but feels like double standards. Not gonna litter this thread into a political thread however. As a sporting event I think it will be great, especially since their state-sponsored cheating won't mean anything in this sport. You did see the draw, right? I did. Every World Cup there's a few weak groups. Let's be honest, the real reason you're not interested is because you think South Korea will come out of this with 0 points. I think you've guys got an ok chance of going through to the next round. Both Sweden and Mexico are underwhelming teams, they're good, but nothing special. The most corrupt rich country in the world walked into a draw organized by the most corrupt organization in the world and walked away with the weakest group in modern World Cup history. How confident are you that nothing shady happened? These guys made Donald Trump President man, you think they can't mess with some ping pong balls in a draw being held in the goddamn Kremlin? #infowars I'd pipe down a bit given that anyone with half a brain knows the Russian government is regularly sabotaging international organisations and assassinate any Russian they happen to disagree with. Despicable government. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Day Gadgie Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 The only time i remember it being as bad as this is when we had the likes of Scott Carson, Rob Green and an ageing David James. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Even then, James was the clear number 1. Probably worth just giving the shirt to Pickford and letting him sink or swim. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmoset Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Whoever is picked, I'm sure a tsunami of Captain Hindsights will be quick to call Southgate a fucking useless cretin for not picking the obviously correct choice as soon as the clearly shite keeper chosen makes a mistake.

Flip Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Neymars World Cup could be in jeopardy. Apparently the fifth metatarsal crack was actually a fracture and he's bound to miss at least 2 months and could even be 3 months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Can there even be a World Cup without the main man? Nah. No way. Nah. He'll be there. 3 months for that type of injury is pushing it. Mostly so he can relax until the World Cup, unless PSG goes through in the CL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
