Love a penalty shootout when England aren’t involved.
For all the reservations about Qatar hosting the World Cup, it certainly seems top class.
The times work really well here in the uk as well which maybe helps.

England have the best attacking players against the remaining teams, the reservations for me are at the back and Southgate’s set up, If England go for it, there’s nothing stopping them.

Otamendi starts for them and Di Maria. Both have been finished for years. Poor collection of strikers and a worse defence than England. Running on Messi and Martinez.
Portugal the only side that can stop England or France now.

Not seen much trouble with the fans.
A podcast I listen to went out for a few games & said it was all good,but different to other WC.

I’ve also heard it’s good but people don’t go out much. A couple friends have been out there and said there’s not a lot to see/do etc other than the actual football and fanzone events.
On pitch it’s been great!

Hey I was there that night, I loved how you threw your gloves away before smacking it in…
Bit harsh calling us a pub team though!?

My Saturday over 40s team were in a cup final earlier this year, we equalised with just about the last kick of the game to take it to pens ?
I saved their 3rd pen (got a video of it somewhere) we scored all ours we came out victorious but I'd have hated to take one lol.

If it wasnt for Bernd Leno getting injured 18 months ago, nobody would've known who he was and he wouldnt be at the world cup.
His 38 appearances in 10yrs at Arsenal speaks volumes.

Speaks volumes about who though? The Arsenal coaching staff who somehow overlooked a quality keeper for that long and nearly ruined his career?

Ideal for us, less so for the players I think. It was 1am by the time the arg v net game finished. That seems far too late!

I guess much depends on the level of ordure the Dutch we’re sending Argentina’s way during the match. I didn’t watch the whole match, only highlights - just an observation not an excuse or exhoneration.

Haha i love an overreaction, he was on loan at 4 different Championship clubs and never stood out.
I've no doubt coaches get it wrong from time to time, but to blame them for nearly ruining his career is laughable.
I know reserve keepers dont get spoken about often but if he was PL quality he would've stood out and had loads of hype/compliments in those stints.
if Leno doesnt get injured we wouldnt be having this discussion.

The referee played his part in the game being a mess
He had zero control on the game and was just flashing yellow cards and the constant blow of his whistle , he allowed the game to get away from him and the players to start acting like idiots
Parades should have walked for his incident but the only thing that was consistent was how inconsistent he was - his idea of control was just dishing out cards.
Have seen him plenty of times in CL and he never seems in control and it wouldn’t surprise me to see that he has given out more yellow cards than any other ref

Talk about speaking your mind ? wonder whether he will get away with that referee remark without consequence?
Love the Van Gaal dig ??
