  1. They can probably rest players against Tunisia as well, given the GD swing it would need for Australia to beat them to 1st place in the group
  2. He's absolutely lethal. Just like in the Champions League. Best player in the world at the moment. Could break the record if he stays fit and keeps his pace into his 30s. Likely to need two more tournaments unless he has a mad one here or in 2026
  3. France have been more offensive in these games than I expected. Wonder if it continues when it comes to crunch knockout games
  4. Not sure those two covering defenders were going to catch Mbappé
  5. Denmark are in a similar position to the US. Highly unlikely Tunisia beat France in the final game, so Denmark are relatively sure of having a playoff for 2nd place vs. Australia even if they lose this afternoon
  6. An Argentina win later will make the last set of matches in this group so tense. All 4 teams would still be able to go through
  7. Tbf Poland have hit the post/bar twice in this half. It's not like they haven't had any chances
  8. The guy who got the rebound from the pen was encroaching looking at that replay. Should have been disallowed had he scored but you never know with VAR at this event
  9. Poland win is the best result for Argentina to top the group I think. So let's go Polska
  10. https://youtube.com/shorts/y9iNC8A662M?feature=share Looks capable of it to me
  11. Tbf I don't think you should lower expectations for England based on this game, in exactly the same way that expectations shouldn't have been raised after beating a poor team in Iran. They're still a top 3 or 4 contender as they were before the thing started
  12. If England repeat tonight's performance they'll beat Wales 4-0. Wales are a poor team
  13. Has it? I mean it's stopped Southgate from giving minutes to players who need fitness, like Walker, and who might be useful later in the competition. But otherwise England are in pole position to qualify 1st, which actually looks a better half at the moment because Spain, Brazil, Argentina, and possibly Croatia are going to be in the other half the way things are I say Argentina, I recognise they're in a bit of bother but I expect them to finish 1st
  14. 'Concentrating on his football' Thinly-veiled 'now he's stopped that feeding poor kids nonsense he's good again' from Dixon there
  15. Neville will be a good listen if England don't win and Foden doesn't get on the pitch
  16. Surprised Dest is going off. He's looked decent. Had to check to see if he was on a booking, but 0 cards for any team so far
  17. Grealish makes sense. Need someone to get on the ball and play those little 5 yard passes into space
  18. It's got 1-0 England with some Raheem Sterling wizardry in the 80th minute written all over this. Southgate switching to a back three to see the game out while the US launch balls onto Maguire's head
