World Cup 2018 countdown!!!!

[DenilsonTheReturn]

1978 Kempe’s – someone who I played football in the street with idolised him and we called him “ten pence”.
1982 Brian Robson 28 second goal and England not losing any matches but knocked out. Brian Clough would have done a better job.
1986 Maradona hand of god, he will always be better than Messi
1990 Gazza crying, we should have won the cup, best team outside 1966 team
1994 worst final ever
1998 ZZ upset Ronaldo’s Brazil
2002 Seaman is a plonker
2006 Italy v Germany played the best match in semi-final but Rooney sent off planned by his winking team mate.
2010 Rooney moaning at being booed but had been caught with prostitutes and Roy in charge after Capello walked away
2014 Did not get out of group stages went out with a wimper.

Brazil will win it and I hope the semi finalist is Nigeria, Senegal and Peru. I've changed my mind from France.

Nigeria




Senegal



Brazil



Peru

England have always had the unenviable task of being like the international Millwall that everyone really hates and yet are expected to perform like Barca, with any win or goal against England being celebrated by the opposition as though we had won every major competition since '66. With that kind of pressure and the ridiculous percentage of foreign players dominating not just the premiership but even the Championship now, getting to so may international competitions is an achievement in itself. It's weird but you watch all the Taffs and Jocks cheer on whoever is playing us as though that somehow makes up for them fucking it up again.

England ARE expected to compete, the fans SHOULD feel let down....England does have the talent, the players just don't make each other better. And let's get real here, Gareth Southgate....bruh.


The United States are expected to compete now'a'days, this next group of youngsters will eventually be special, but they're going to have to keep learning and growing together and keep getting regular playing time at their clubs.


England SHOULD be a lot better than they are.

Careful you do not want to be supporting a team with too many Caucasian players in it.

LOL denilson supporting Brazil......Brazil last country in the west to abolish slavery AND had about 40% of ALL the slaves sent to the Americas and Denilson is like "OOOOH I like them"



Also Brazil

[El Kabong]

Awwwww well how on Earth could that be the case? Whatever could be responsible for there not being a peaceful national celebration of sport?

We are aware England should have achieved more over last twenty years. But the belief has all been used up by a bunch of multi millionaires whose effort came into question.

Ferdinand Lampard and Gerrard even said they didn't like to speak at training camps as didn't want to hear about club successes from the others. I mean give me a fucking break. But that ad probably the managers fault for not getting a team spirit.

Folding against the mighty Iceland was the biggest low. We can only get better but now many fans don't really care. And that's the saddest thing for me

Agreed but Hart has been dropped and he was at fault for Iceland and Wales goals.

Ashley Young said Southgate has got rid of the club cliques that was present 10 years ago.

Youngsters like Ali, Lingard, Sterling and Rashford supporting Kane will be exciting and we have Tunisia and Panama before Belgium so should have the group sorted by then.

Poor Joe Hart, he had a few seasons where he did alright, but he was never THE great goalkeeper.


Ashley Young...speaking of folks who shouldn't be in the England team


Kane needs support, he needs the ball fed to him and I think if you've got a spine of Alli and Dier then you're doing pretty good right there because they already play together and they play with Kane. Then you need Sterling, Lingard, and Rashford to use their speed, they lack a little bit of creative flair, but they should help Kane out. The back 4 should be in excellent shape with TAA and Walker helping bomb down the wings and who do you have at CB? Stones and Cahill? Butland and/or Pickford should be a fine #1.


Yall SHOULD win the entire group. I mean Belgium is in their Golden Era but they are still a Roberto Martinez team. You'd think with KDB, Hazard, and Lukaku as well as with the monster defense they have they'd be good but they are CONSTANT under achievers like Spain before they started winning everything.



How the shit does Radja Nainggolan get left at home? Leaving him home will cost them a bunch...need that fire in the team man and they are light in midfield.
