World Cup 2018

Belgium struggling vs Panama. )

Until now, none of the favourites played as expected. Interesting..

Annnnnd 3-0. Expect Belgium to be like Spain; with their possession, most goals will be scored in the second half. World Cup games are almost always with lesser teams playing with bunker defenses hoping to get out of the group rounds.

Of the favorites, only Spain and Belgium looking sharp.

Dier is so much better than henderson in this setup how has Southgate picked the latter to start.

Dier is better player but Henderson is more mobile and more of a leader type in team that doesnt have many.

its time

England: Pickford; Walker, Stones, Maguire; Trippier, Lingard, Henderson, Alli, Young; Sterling, Kane.

Tunisia: Hassen; Meriah, Syam Ben Youssef, Bronn, Maaloul; Skhiri, Badri, Sassi; Fakhereedine Ben Youssef, Khazri, Sliti.

I get that but he isn't anywhere near good enough as a 6, don't mind him playing as an 8. We will get torn apart by better teams if we go in with him playing that role, especially accompanied by Alli and Lingard.

Henderson is a much better passer of the ball than Dier. Both will probably play against Belgium, but against teams who will likely be defensive, we can only have one, and Henderson is the better passer.

r u kidding me? this was a disaster

a lucky shot and great assist.
good players, no team

quite normal that Panama would collaps after a first goal

 

[Neymessi]

Awful World Cup. Basically an extension of what we went through with the last Euro Cup.

Not really. Its been a fine WC till now. Why do you think its awful?

Not at all

 

[West Saxon]

Here we go! Come on, England!

 

[JamDav1982]

Dele Alli is a class act.

 

[BenRobbins]

Great start so far. So dangerous going forward just miss alot of chances.

 

[JamDav1982]

What a fucking leap by Stones.

Was far above the bar there.

 

[Ode to Django]

As expected, England look the best team so far ( Premier league )

 

[BenRobbins]

Walker such an idiot.

Thats why he should be playing RWB not CB.

He isnt the best defender.

We were looking great aswell.

Kind of a miracle how Pep managed to concede so few goals with such specialists as Ederson, Otamendi, Walker and Stones
