Kanj Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Come on, I think you did alright. Let's just not get carried away with the contender talk. Plus, we all know that Putin will make sure you lot are stuck in Siberia for the group stages in 2018. Why? People wank over the waffles and we had a beat up squad and our number one striker out - so yes we can be something in 4 years bc the majority of our squad are the most exciting big man.

Belgium is one of the poorer European teams in the competition and you still had to defend for your lives for the majority of the game. The gap between Europe/South America and the rest of the world is humongous. In my mind there's never been a "contender" from outside of those two regions, at least not in any World Cup I'm old enough to remember. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We most certainly were not contenders though That's not even the best team we ever had. And that(4th) is still the highest an Asian/African/North American team has ever finished.

Kanj Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I can't wait for the future of this footballing nation - one that has always been an afterthought, b/c we when push came to shove we fought every fucking minute - the American way, never letting any single person get over us, and if they did? we fought till the end. What we lacked in talent we made up in fight, and nobody can ever doubt that. Roll it on, son; we'll be a force son, one day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 It's all stupid comments Mike - I spent an eternity praising the English and any team here due to respect of posters and their nations but I'll always remember when the jealousy peaks a bit higher - happy my nation of grafting talentless players put a up a helluva fight tonight and earlier that other's would have crumbled to 90 minutes.

B-more Mag Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 We've got to keep working on making soccer a viable choice for talented kids when they're at the pivotal point of deciding where to concentrate their talents. Keeping MLS in good shape is pretty critical in that. I think we'll keep moving in the right direction. We've got a super-deep pool of talent to draw from.
