FIFA 2018 World Cup Thread

To be fair, Ronaldo has won the World Cup, but 2002 was a very poor tournament and Brazil got lucky with the draw.

All you’re missing is the World Cup wall chart

The smartphone has that made redundant.

Think twill be pissing rain most of the day too so no guilt

I’ll be down, mate!

Peter Collins has barely aged a day since he started his career in broadcasting

Didier Drogba looking fit as a fiddle on the Beeb. Tasty enough English lady with him.

Drog was skitting when she was going on about defenders marking space etc. You could tell he wasn’t even listening to her.

French have started off well.

I think whoever wins the battle between Pogba and Rogic will win the game.

Aussies are a shower of hammer throwers.

Rogic needs to be in a front foot team. Put him in the French team and it would be a rout

Lovely bit of bite to the ozzies… hopefully they break a few legs here today.

France have come into this tournament strangely under the radar.

I think they and Brazil are the two likeliest winners.

Europe should have 20 of the 32 teams in the WC, South America 6 and the remaining 6 places should go between the the remaining confederations whereby the top teams in each respective zone should play off against each other.

I don’t really like them. Good players of course but they still lack a bit IMO

France look decent so far, plenty of fluidity.

Australia look happy to kick them off the pitch.
