Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - We are SO back, the Premier League returns!

[JDH]

Italy weren't 'very poor' at the Euros though, just because they lost to N. Macedonia lets not rewrite history.

We have tournament experience and have arguably the best set of attacking players in the tournament along with France. We should rightly be at least top three in terms of favourites.

The only team i'd be wary of playing is France just because of the level of talent they have, otherwise we should fear no one.

England always had good players but they usually don't manage to play to the sum of its parts

Watching the build up and didn't realise all eight World Cup stadiums in Qatar are within a 35 mile radius.

 

[Montez]

They should take the WC from Qatar for this fake ass Casper the ghost.

NBA Bubble World Cup.

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

any links to the draw?

 

[CBSkyline]

I'm ready for the fukkery and accusations of bribery and draw fixing

 

[Black Magisterialness]

Nah i disagree bro, we don't have the defence the play the way you're talking about. We DO have the defence, or at least the defensive set up, to play conservatively.

We have holes, but so does every other team in international football.

Every team we face will be absolutely shytting themselves at the thought of Kane dropping deep on the counter and supplying the wingers we have running beyond him.

Kane dropping deep has been some bs though. Kane up top and SCORING is what he needs to do.

NBA Bubble World Cup.

Bubble World Cup gonna have a fat asterisk next to it. If England can't win this one they'll never do it.

 

[Spade]

The draw is in 30 minutes

 

[So UnThotful]

Anyone got a link to a TV broadcast of the drawing?

Everything right now is random people on YouTube doing a watch party

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

This is gonna be some long winded drawn out spectacle.

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

It's usually down to coaches conservatism (this goes way back to Sir Alf days) or front loading the starting XI and not having anyone coming off the bench (Sven and Capello) to change things.

They showing the avatar folks but not the migrant workers. Nah Qatar trying the Budden rebrand.

They're gonna get crucified for it through till the end and watch Qatar disregard the issue once the tournament is over

 

[TobiOT]

I'll come back when the draw is done.
