2018 Football World Cup

Mpape is really good

Feel sorry for the Belgians but France was definitely the better side. No way Croatia would beat them but England could snatch it off a set piece.

Belgits dopey coach pays the price for pickign too many defenders, iHomo. This ain't some parking the bus job for Wigan Athletic fluffybunny. Dembele finally gets to play and he was shit. There's holding your shape and there's flat out refusing to run into gaping open space. Belgone's 3 (?) defensive midfielders left Hazard and DeGroine getting triple teamed.
Dipshit Fellaini loses a header to a dwarf and that's that. You had one job to do, doofus, ONE fucken job.
Loving how you somehow have an autocorrect entry in your dictionary of "iHomo".
Context? Please? -
@rocky-rockbottom said in 2018 Football World Cup:
the fuck is "autocorrect"?
I did wonder - you actually meant "iHomo", rather than "IMHO"?
In which case - colour me apologising/embarassed, and insert gif of "joke flying way over my head" -

I got Croatia in the work sweep, so have emptied my TAB account (all $15 of it) on to England to progress as insurance.
-
Best nil-all half of footy you could watch.
Hazard and Mm-bop are the two best players at this tournament, and were given rhe freedom to show it.
France really are very good, and will be very hard to beat in the final

One half of the "Battle of Waterloo" WC final in. Now for the team representing the Lord Nelson side to front up
I think you mean the Duke of Wellington , Nelson was Trafalgar.
Oops, sorry. Getting my historical references all askew. I originally thought about the Battle of Hastings, then realised the poms lost that one!!!

I guess it was different for England as they weren't clearly the best (or among the better) team between world cups. Tyranny of low expectations.

Lukaku produced another stunning Heskey performance.
Lazy good for nothing.
Combined with rubbish crossing it was never going to be easy to beat France with 10 men.
And Mbuti (sp) can get fucked with his Neymars

The last time these two met in a big WC match it was the Battle of Agincourt that was referenced.
(Too many on the non-French side at Waterloo weren't English -- all the Scots for a start, but also Dutch, Belgians, Hanoverians.)
Trafalgar would do
