The Official FIFA World Cup 2022 Megathread

West Ham will be delighted. Signed Aguerd, got injured immediately and couldn't play for months. Got back in time for the World Cup, looks decent, gets injured again.

I don’t enjoy watching Spain at all. So dull.

They were superb at Euro 2008. By miles the best team at SA 2010 and Euro 2012 and they knew it, so went a goal up and killed the game stone dead most of the time. Since then - the same boring pseudish crap but with ever decreasing actual quality. They're awful to watch.

It's like someone painting a faithful, 100% accurate depiction of the M6. Yeah, I get the skill to make it look so realistic. But it's not interesting, is it.

Saiss gets a yellow card

 

[Alan]

Símon and Morata look miles off the pace for this level.

 

[Alan]

Hell of a save that is

 

[Jack Regan]

Yay! Extra time...

 

[Jack Regan]

Huge Miss! Has to score.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Got to score there. So much room to Simon's right.

"Hit the target, that's all you can do"

Thanks John. Personally I would try to avoid hitting it straight at the keeper who unless he is Danny Ward will probably save it, but what do I know.

 

[Jack Regan]

Yep, you'd seemingly think as a former striker he'd at least know about goalscoring.

Nope!

Easter comeback?

 

[Tony Towner]

Easter comeback?

Nah in his case it's 48 hours or long term

 

[Wilf Wolf]

Hang in the Saiss. We know what you can do!

Bravo, sir

Cheddira isn't very good. #analysis

Romain looks absolutely hobbled, his WC might be over even if they make it

 

[Banjo]

Easter comeback?

Bravo

The boy loves a good old Heskey-style limp, tbf. Steven Fletcher was always grand for that too. Neither ever quite graduated to the full on Roger Johnson dying swan.
