  1. Still will be a great achievement for them, to make it out of the group stage, I think they will probably win the group if Uruguay don't improve on their first game, they'll probably only need a draw in that game. They could surprise one of the Iberian teams, I would much rather Spain face Uruguay than the hosts at home tbh, I would still fancy us to beat them but it won't be as straightforward as it would have been pre world cup.
  2. It's always great for a tournament for the hosts to do well, pleased for Russia, they've hosted a great event so far and have a team that has a genuine chance to go a long way in this.
  3. Colombia are a very good side. They were missing their best player and down to 10 men for 87 minutes today. The other three teams are better than that Tunisia side England struggled against England will be strong favourites against any of the 4 teams they play in the r16, if we make it of course. On paper it's a mismatch. You can never tell with international football though, sum of their parts don't always make an ideal mix and we have an extremely green coach. I think Colombia would beat England if James Rodriguez is fit. Not remotely a mismatch Yeah but your Irish and obviously biased, player for player, we have a much stronger squad. They've got one world class player and one decent CB who had a poor game in the opener. Kane, Ali, Sterling Rashford, Vardy even Henderson, Stones, Walker and Lingard would walk into their team. All too easy to think a team is much better than another one when they have one world class player. Personally I would take Kane over Rodriguiez any day of the week right now. I'm not biased. Just because you don't watch enough football to know the rest of their players doesn't mean they aren't good. You said you hadn't seen much of a player who plays for one of the best teams in Europe earlier and called him "turd" so you clearly don't watch enough football to have an opinion on Colombia's players. You're the biased one in this conversation Fuck off dude, lets just wait to see the betting odds, and you can tell me if I am wrong there. This forum is just getting worse by the day, for some reason people like to jump down my throat all the time, I didn't say anything controversial just that England ON PAPER are stronger than all four of these group H teams. What odds do you think England will be if they play Colombia like? They will be favourites, just like I said. And that's all I said. FFS.
  4. FFS come on, maybe the whole part about me saying we had the stronger squad yet you twittering on about Rodriguez, so they were a lot better. I even said in a few posts back how it isn't all about the strength of players. Really....

You're the biased one in this conversation Fuck off dude, lets just wait to see the betting odds, and you can tell me if I am wrong there. OK so educate me, who gets in England's squad and why, and also why are they not playing their club football at the same level that the players whom they are replacing are. Player for player doesn't matter. England clearly have a deeper squad. We see time and time again where 1 or 2 great players alongside 9 or 10 decent players can lead to a very successful team. Colombia in the last World Cup, Chile over the last 5 or 6 years, Uruguay over the last 10 years or so, Wales in the Euros,etc. James Rodriguez would be England's most important player IMO. A player like that is exactly what England are really missing to be a very good side. Falcao is an excellent striker. I actually think Davinson Sanchez is a bit of a clown tbh So... after all that you argued against yourself. FFS man.

  8. Was an exciting game in the end, but my god these there was a severe lack of quality on show. Nice to see Africa getting a win at last.

  10. Maybe grandstand finish, at last some attacking intent from Poland.

  12. If England don't get to at least the 1/4 finals here, it'll be a huge failure. Group H is awful.
