On Skybet's Brazil v Costa Rica market, Paulinho is 33/1 to score a header and 50/1 to score from outside the area. No matter what you think of him as a player, those are fucking tasty odds.

Fascinating to see that your memory has repressed this


Edit: I've had some time to think and come to the conclusion that the reason he's a massive 50/1 to score from outside the box is solely based on this four year old shot

Equally fascinating to see how you've forgotten this :D


I guess what I'm saying is just as pointless as whatever your point was, neither define him as a player excepting in the minds of a few idi......esteemed posters :D But the odds are still tasty.

I used to do that on a weekly basis over the park as kid, with an air floater

I hope Neymar has a brilliant game - fantasy points and make Madrid want him even more.

Paulinho odds are decent, might jump on that and just hope Neymar keeps passing to him.....oh I see the flaw in that now.

Nigeria v Iceland. The stuff of nightmares.
There's not much value too be had from a betting point of view so I'm swerving. I had a touch last night thanks to Modric/Croatia so I'm lumping £20 on each of the Paulinho bets. Pray for me :nailbiting:

Imagine if he scores a header from outside the box...

I'm up about a couple of hundred quid or so, I pretty much only bet on player markets, you know, shots on target, to score a header/from outside the area and last night Modric to score and Croatia to win. That kind of thing.

Skybet, Paddy Power and William Hill price boosts ftw!

I've also made a fair bit on a penalty to be awarded. Odds of 2/1 in every game near enough. I don't think they've adjusted the odds for VAR yet. Matter of time til they do.

I don't actually do much on William Hill but this caught my eye this morning

Iceland v Nigeria - Over 2 Goals, Over 3 Cards, Over 10 Corners @ 10/1 so I had a cheeky tenner on. I did the same for Colombia v Japan and fell one corner short at the same odds

That is tasty odds. Only thing would be corners. First full day of fixtures I had 3/4 bets come in, including corners in one game.

Since then I haven't got anything, hopefully Paulinho changes that today.
