World Cup Discussion Thread - Day 19 (2 July)

[Col_M]

This world cup has been mental.

Everyday I go into work and we’re all talking about the tournament. Everyone loves it. Even the non fans who bought sweepstake tickets are commenting

I wouldn't bet against Japan just yet.

 

[kaz Hirai]

Can't see Belgium beating Brazil really, be a good game though

 

[lukadownthelane]

I think he’s played pretty well, no?

just doesn’t manage games like he used to for me.

Love watching Honda play though. He must be some 5aside player.

 

[yanno]

Fellaini on the right wing?!?!?

 

[SlotBadger]

Goalkeeper has got to catch that initial header.

 

[Hakkz]

Martinez is a brilliant manager. A tactical masterstroke. Let Japan lead and then pounce twice!

 

[nailsy]

It's like playing in cheat mode when you start lumping high balls into the box against Japan.

 

[DFF]

Lukaku...the whole goal to aim at ffs

I think you mean let them lead and then sling it in the box

 

[hodsgod]

How does Wiesel get in ahead of Dembele? He doesn’t do anything

I would expect him to play against Brazil.

Lucky, there's still a few in our office that moan about the world cup nearly as much as they do about the air conditioning.

 

[vuzp]

Japan didn't come to sit back, bunker in and hope for penalties. They came to win. Credit to them.

that's how I want underdogs to play, if you get the chance to attack go for it and we see the result with Japan.
fair play to them

 

[SwedishSpurs]

Gotta say, Chadli has been decent

 

[heelspurs]

That's more like it Jan. Blast a beauty only to be saved or deflected.

Yeah and add Fellaini into the mix and it's gg.

 

[ItsBoris]

What a game this is

 

[SdB]

This Chadli fella looks decent

Always been good, we've had worse players play for us since we've left.
