The Official FIFA World Cup Thread - QATAR 2022

[EndGame]

Just Imagine, Mbappe and Messi doing all that in the finals of World Cup just to fail to win the Champions League.

 

[Uchiha God]

There's no asterik to be put on Mbappe. He is a WC winner, Golden Boot winner and a hat-trick scorer in the biggest game of all. Everyone knows the issue is with PSG. If there is anything to be taken from this season is that Mbappe and Messi can work together. They need to bring that together for their CL run.

Like I said - in an ideal world this would be true, but the world isn't ideal and the fact is until he moves to either England or Spain it will always be "farmer's league/uber eats league". That's the asterisk.

Players aren't solely assessed on their national team contributions. I'd even argue that recently club football has had more attention than international football. You think people are screaming Messi GOAT solely because he won the world cup today - and not because of what he's done with Barcelona?
Mbappe needs to move. You can try and fight it, but it is what it is

 

[Nero Christ]

I'll say this, in my time being on the Coli, this is the most 'scorching hot/freezing cold' forum I've ever been on.
There's no in between.

Mbappe misses a chance: fraud watch
Canada presses Belgium for 15 mins: greatest thing to ever come out of concacaf.

The NBA takes are on a whole other level that I won't touch.

Brehs giving up better sports talk than ESPN

2016 NBA Finals Game 7- Cavs/Warriors
2022 AFC divisional game - Bills/Chiefs

Wed was my birthday, Thurs I flew down to Buenos Aires

I can't put today into words. I can't convey the emotion.

After 32 years, the 1-0 heartbreak at the hands of west Germany can be washed away

Lil Techniec can smile again,

Santo Diego this one is for you in the sky, watch over us



Buenos aires is so fukking live right now

 

[Techniec]

In June I flew down to Denver and was there when my Colorado Avalanche won the Stanley Cup

Six month later I'm in Buenos Aires when my Argentina won the World Cup

2022

Congratulations breh.

If he doesn't leave Paris for either England or Spain - that asterisk will always be there.

only from retards and nobody listens to retards.

 

[FakeNews]

Take your victory lap Qatar

Fair play to Qatar it was a success despite the hate.

Looking forward to the winter World Cup in Saudi Arabia and Egypt

 

[mastermind]

Can't put his dribbling in there. What Messi does with his dribbling and close control is not normal. It's not that step over shyt. 100 years of training won't teach you to control the ball like Messi and Iniesta

Or Aleksandr Hleb

 

[Kendom]

Best World Cup final ever. Couldn't have written a more dramatic script.

Lionel Messi's got the World Cup. The undisputed GOAT

 

[JA_Carter]

Still not over the final, felt like the end game of football. The sub-plot before the game (cementing Messi as the GOAT or passing of the torch to the next GOAT) was more than lived up to. Both guys came out of the game with their legacies elevated.

Other than Arsenal winning the league this year, everything else this season will pale in comparison
