Froggy Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 We're having a World Cup/Poker/Eating competition night on Saturday. Decky is going to eat half a kilo of butter and I'm going to eat ten McDonald's cheeseburgers in 4 minutes or less. World cup innit. Hard to believe the Irish are often characterised as feckless simpletons. Aye, yet everyone loves us and hates the English. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Can see brasil cruising it, they have a really well balanced squad and that front four of Hulk, WILLIAN, Neymar and Fred really do look convincing. Can see spain going out quite early, just can't see them maintaining form and they haven't looked good recently. Dark horses have to be England and belgium. FYP. Oscar will play 45mins from start, disappoint and Willian will run the show. Ffs man that's literally never happened, shut the hell up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucaAltieri Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 People talk about Belgium having a good squad and being potential dark horses this year. I think Croatia might have an even better team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, IMO, their defense is shambles. Their midfield is definitely good, but their defense and goalkeeper is rather average. Belgium has a good team in every part of the pitch. Colombia and Belgium aren't dark horses for me though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 One should enjoy the football from purely a sporting perspective, but there's nothing wrong with knowing what goes on behind the scenes. http://worldsoccertalk.com/2014/06/08/watch-how-world-cup-2022-was-stolen-from-usa-other-new-explosive-videos-about-fifa-video/ Andrew Jennings is brilliant.

They're boring to watch though. Think they could do well as Hitzfeld has them playing organized football, but from the few games I've seen them they're not entertaining. Hope they are on June 20th at Arena Fonte Nova though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mehmedi has had a pretty good season at Freiburg as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Absolutely, was just commenting on the 'could be a good watch' as they're a very rigid and boring side to watch overall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
