World Cup Discussion Thread - Day 10 (23 June)

Bit of a mishit, but a good counter.

How is that not a foul ... lol at the state of refs in world football.

 

[Phomesy]

Son hasn't exactly covered himself in glory.

This is probably the match that has pushed me over the edge punditry-wise. Five minutes at half time were enough for me to put it on mute. Ian Dowie as co-commentator is just nauseating. It makes me quite nostalgic for Brian Clough trolling the living daylights out of the studio for his own entertainment.

Pretty terrible outfit though South Korea. Worst squad they have had for years.

 

[TheHoddleWaddle]

You are fucking awful Korea. Go home.

I don't know why, but I expected so much more from them. No real basis for that expectation though.

 

[Phomesy]

@Spurrific if you want to make an argument that Son's performance has been selfless and to his own standard then do so. But I'd suggest watching the S Korea attack just before the second goal. Which has summed up Son's tournament so far. Just because he's SK's best player doesn't mean he should just ignore the team thing to do.

And making an argument is better than hiding behind ratings, mate.

Yankspurs complains about the amount of pens in the World Cup and then wants a pen for a minor incident lol

I want Korea to win. Needed that decision to have had a slight chance. But they are fucking garbage.

Don't disagree there at all. And Son is clearly their best player. But he plays like he knows he is which is a bit disappointing.

You're on the internet. Ratings mean nothing. Carry on.

What the hell happened there? The commentators in Norway are clearly not at the game and just commenting on the pictures so they had no idea.

 

[yankspurs]

Is Ochoa fucking kidding me? Roll around 50 more times you fucking twat.

 

[cwy21]

WTF all around.

 

[coypu]

When Lozano was injured just before their goal, did he go off as the medical team did come on for treatment? He was involved in the build up to Mexico's goal.

 

[Deleted member 27995]

The amount of time players have spent rolling around on the floor in these matches I wouldn't mind but that was goal keeper!

 

[yankspurs]

Ochoa, Rafa and little pea are so immensely hatable.

The Korean player was booked so he didn't need to leave the field after treatment.

ITV has been particularly shit. How Roy Keane gets a job as a pundit is beyond me. Martin O’Neil is also wank. Alex Scott though has been very good. BBC has shit all over ITV

 

[yankspurs]

Oh my fucking god Korea you a fucking trash. Jesus christ. I feel bad for Son.

Not worried about the ratings. Worried that some Spurs fans seem to think that Son's selfishness and ignoring of players busting their guts to get into good positions is what we want from one of our most important players. Needs to sort it out. For SK and for Spurs.
