FIFA World Cup 2026 Results & Discussion Thread [R]

I don't think so, he sounds like one of those Snow White dwarfs..

 

Autistic Argentinian Robert DeNiro

 

The world will be a better place when he, Cristiano and Neymar retire

Japan Netherlands game is a snoozefest. I predict this will be the first nil-nil game of the world cup.

 

Dumfries making good runs but damn he’s very very high up there. Sometimes the furthest player up there. Don’t know how that’ll play in our setup.

 

Absolute snooze fest. The Dutch have had one good chance. The Japanese are on autopilot.

This Dutch team sucks.

 

Danilo for Ibañez
Fabinho for Casemiro
Cunha for Igor the Terrible
Endrick will warm up earlier, still won't play

But it's Haiti..

 

Frimpong is who the club should have gone for last summer with Xabi coming in, but I guess Trent for “free” at a cost of only €10 million for one week was too good to pass up.

 

Yeah maybe. Also Trent is a better player than Frimpong. By a long way.

 

Man Seedorf. What a player he was.

 

Trent’s alright, more accomplished but older and injury prone.

I think Carvajsl’s injury played into but that only made it more maddening that the club didn’t pay for the transfer in January ‘25 because he would be “free” in the summer only to turn around and pay 10 million anyways.

Dumphries is another one I thought the club could/should look at last summer instead if rushing in with Trent for free but he’s the oldest of the three a year older now and I get a bad feeling he’s going to flame out like Maicon who seemed come out if nowhere at Inter only to have couple of world class seasons before disappearing again.

 

VVD with the goal! Thank goodness this game wont be nil-nil.

 

Dumfries assist.

 

Ex-Madrid player Takefusa Kubo with the assist for Japan. This is turning out to be Real Madrid's world cup.

 

The Blue Samurai have drawn blood.

 

Gakpo is a donkey.

 

What a good game to see for a change.

 

Summerville with a really good low shot into the corner.

 

2-1. Good game. Nice finish by Summerville.

 

There has been more good games than bad.

 

2-2. Cracking header.

 

That’s what the Dutch get for parking bus

 

Really embarrassing for the Dutch to lose a goal to a header.

 

Dude played just well enough to get his Liverpool transfer and then decided to clock out.
