It’s harder for a keeper to save from right footer there, curling from out to in than a lefty, curling it in to out, no?

That’s why I couldn’t understand Glenda calling for the lefty (6) fella to take it.

That was a great free kick imo

Maybe if it starts way outside the post, goes around the wall, and just dips inside it at the last second. Didn't really do that, and it was a little way inside the post. The keeper was fairly dismal throughout and I thought the guy on the end of the world was a bit of a wimp too tbh.

Can anyone be kind enough to explain why after a 5-0 result, the group table on BBC shows the Goal Difference to be 3 and -3 for Russia and Arabia respectively?

Golovin ain't half as good as Grealish, who you despise

I think it’s a good comparison, they are similar types. I thought Golovin works harder and smarter off the ball - despite being younger. And his face was at least half as fucking irritating as Grealish’s.

What a souless pit of misery that first games atmosphere was.

Dilly dilly.

Took the dog for a walk and came back to 5-0. Cracking first opener.
