Nobody Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 7 hours ago, Interpolic said: Had a thought about the next World Cup with it being 48 teams. Have 12 groups of 4. Top 2 go through. Leaves you with 24 teams. Top performing 8 group winners get a bye to last 16. Remaining 16 play each other in a last 16 qualifier. Winners play the 8 who got a bye. Then it works like any last 16. I don't think teams getting a bye is ideal but it gives teams an incentive to go all out for wins and goals in the group stages. And it keeps the 4 team group format where 2 go through. Surely better than what has been suggested. This is so much better than 2 of 3 going through Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would seem completely out of character for the regime.

Flip Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 5 hours ago, Slim said: Strange that Dutch had the exact same. This goes on at every World Cup with almost every team. Since they have their base, the staff working at the bases celebrates their return after a win as they see them everyday and become a part of the team. Was the same in Russia for a lot of teams like Brazil, France and few others that I saw at the very least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question, de Bruyne didn’t reach normal levels. Ziyech has looked good. Foden’s looked great. Bernardo Silva has been typically great, gundogan didn’t look as sharp as usual. Havertz blew hot and cold. Can’t think of the other top players, van Dijk’s been good from what I’ve seen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
