Hacking, Vodka And Dashboard Cams - FIFA World Cup Russia 2018 Thread[R]

@natenate101 and @Shay Z , do share the secret as I am in the same predicament.

 

Im cheering on Spain and Croatia before my own national team... yup

 

In my case, I think Ronaldo is now old, and he doesn't have a team behind him to make up for what he can't do anymore.

In Madrid, he's surrounded by the very best, not with Portugal.

As for Messi, I am never impressed by what he does with his national team. Argentina as a whole is a joke. They have mass of quality players, and always disappoint. Also: Higuain. Messi will never win anything with Higuain as a teammates.

 

Messi also had his share in screweing Argentina's hopes for a title.
Any way last World Cup they could reach the final with a solid defensive approach. I wonder if they can go far with Sampaoli.

adidas did a good job with some of the retro jerseys, namely Spain, Colombia, Germany and Belgium. Russia does not inspire CCCP to me. Then, the rest of the adidas kit seemed so plain, but Iran and Morocco do not deserve to be in the botton of the ranking. They are simply plain adidas red jersey.

I really think the Nigeria jersey is overrated.
The 2nd kit looks better.

 

I would say the timings are worse for us on the east coast. I'll get up early to watch a game before heading to work. What I hate is when a big game is played during work hours, and that's the case for pretty much all the games. No luck either as July 4th falls on an off-day. The worst is July 6th.

 

Apparently Rodri and our boy Jesus Vallejo will travel to Russia with the Spain squad as reserves. Will be a great experience for the future.

Lulz Morata is the model for the Spanish WC shirt??

I'm really excited about this world cup. That last one didn't do it for me; wasn't excited for the build up and it didn't even feel like a world cup during the tournament.

This one has many big characters, young up incoming players and great early match ups.

I am excite.

 

In terms of great early matchups, I think this WC falls a bit flat. There's just Spain x Portugal & Croatia x Argentina. Last WC had more than that in the first 3 days alone.

But I'm still pumped....

Casemiro abusing Neymar until he joins us. Look at the concentration in his face!

 

Morata is sponsored by Adidas. Maybe he is contractually obligated to appear in ads.
