Watched Belgium last night. It's only a friendly but they'll cause teams trouble and if they win the group they could potentially reach the final. Both France and Brazil lack this ball dominating midfield, which is what I think they'll have trouble against. So I can see them reaching the final by surprising both Brazil and France, but they won't beat Spain or Germany who will control the game against them. If they finish 2nd I think they'll bow out in the quarters to Germany.

Not the manager though. Roberto Martinez isn't a World Cup winning coach.

 

He would be if he won the World Cup, though :pow:

 

:lol: I don't want to live in a world where Roberto Martinez wins the World Cup.

So if mexico finish top of their group, we may want to finish second in ours?

 

Colombia then Mexico or Serbia vs 2nd in Colombia's group then Brazil or Germany?

 

Think everyone might try and finish on that side of the bracket now, even Brazil :lol:

Flip of a coin whether we win the R16 game unless Japan pull off a pixelated manoeuvre.

Did Boyata get good? He looked pretty poor over here.

 

No. It's just than Vermaelen and Kompany are injured as per.

Great to see the Guatemalan league having some representation in the WC despite Guatemala being absolutely horseshit.

Never cringed so much when this morning, some Sky reporter in Volgograd was talking about the historical significance of the city said that 2,000 servicemen and women died at the Battle of Stalingrad. Was almost 2 million you fucking arsehole.
