Dave Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Was that planned or is it a subtle attempt to cover over the embarrassing number of popped balls they've had so far? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 How many have there been like? I noticed it happened twice in one match but that was it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Wew. I didn't know that. I'm just pleased we don't have to put up with anything like the Jabulani. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Best player of the tournament so far? Best team so far? Best goal? Best game? Worst player? Worst team? Will have to have a think and go over the highlights, but best team in terms of footy has been Mexico and best goal Messi last night. Not a worldy, but my kind of goal. Looked simple, but very few would have been able to control the ball and touch it away in one fell swoop to get a strike away like that which guaranteed a goal IMO. The run and balance was perfect too, just a lovely goal. Worst team based on what I watched was Panama, England didn’t even play that well and didn’t get out if first gear but hammered them.

Wullie Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Best player so far is probably Modric. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgarve Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Player - Trippier Team - Croatia Goal - Nacho Game - Spain Portugal Worst player - Mascherano Worst Team - Panama Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Best player so far is probably Modric. I’d probably agree, he’s been majestic without being flashy or show boaty, but then that has never been his game. Take note Neymar. You could argue Croatia have been the best team, certainly very consistent. France have disappointed me the most, Pardew-esque football and flat as fuck. Germany get the lols Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 For me Godin has been the best player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Think Hazard and Quintero should be in the mix for best player so far. Musa deserves an honourable mention. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Croatia easily been best team so far, still predicting Brazil to win it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroblack Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Think Hazard and Quintero should be in the mix for best player so far. Musa deserves an honourable mention. Coutinho has been involved in a lot that has been good for Brazil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Croatia have went about things quietly and confidently, good in all areas of the pitch it seems. England look the most threatening from set pieces and are quite exciting going forward along with Belgium, two teams who can cause any defence problems in different ways.

Mole_Toonfan Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 It's weird but I think the thing I enjoy the most about the group stages is how quickly things seem to change. Portugal looked comfortable after the first two games and there were inches away from being eliminated one game later, Mexico same story and for a lot of today they were one German goal from going out. There's probably many other examples but it's all added to the drama and tension of the tournament. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Mexico going out today would surely have merited some sort of stewards enquiry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Honestly, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think Lingard's been the best player so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Player - Trippier Team - Croatia Goal - Nacho Game - Spain Portugal Worst player - Mascherano Worst Team - Panama Trippier for Modric and that’s about fair. Could have a few for worst player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 So now we are getting well into the World Cup what are your pet hates either for this tournament or World Cups generally. For me (and we’ll see it tonight I’m sure) ITVs refusal to accept the historic ‘think it’s all over’ commentary of 66 as the legend everyone remembers and instead playing the much less memorable ‘and he has’ version. Also Clive Tydesley making commentary on Saudi Arabia vs Egypt all about Cristiano Ronaldo and Man Utd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
