2022 World Cup.

Ave a feeling there will be a few “ legends” retiring after this World Cup. That said Ave not seen any standout young uns coming through either. Mind Southgates not playing some of them ????

Mbappe, Musiala, Saka, Bellingham, Tchouameni, Gavi, Pedri, Davies, Vini Junior, Gakpo, and plenty more. Lots of good youngsters on show

Musiala was pretty tasty for Germany, Bellingham got rave reviews first game up, Mbappe is a star already. Still time for others to shine. (Fundy beat me to it with a better list than mine ?)

Agree about the first bit, it's a tournament too far for a few big names.

If that was a penalty then they need to go back to the drawing board with the rules. He's falling backwards onto his backside, what else is he meant to do with his hand?? Should he just take the full force of his fall on his tailbone? Absolutely farcical.
Yes I agree.
Think he gave it because Bruno was clean through.
But it wasn’t unnatural.
 
Always has been about him

Remember the champ leagues final when bale scored the winner and he had a face like a slapped bum rather than celebrating

Or when his nose was put out of joint that bales transfer fee topped his

Mental

Nothing compared to Harry Kane swearing on his baby's life he got a touch on a cross that helped him get a Golden Boot a few years ago :LOL:
 
Being a true England Fan I should like Wales to win 1-0 and the other 2 draw.
Ideal situation and a (further) wake up call for England/ Southgate.

Does Southgate do wake up calls? Think I’ve said before, he’s like the scene from Black Adder Goes Forth, we’ll try the same thing over and over because the enemy won’t expect that ?

Southgate's record as England manager is pretty good.
Weird how some fans put their opinion higher than records/results.

We have this at Hearts ATM.
Our best manager since his last tenure as manager, very good recent record, two cup finals playing in Europe and 3rd in the league.
However a group of numpties want him gone.
 
Adidas/FIFA released the data collected by the ball and Ronaldinho didn’t touch it.

I think his hair did, that is why he felt it, but the ball didn’t ‘feel’ it.
