  1. Missing the games over the weekend to be treated to these two have been worth it
  2. Basically saying “It was a tight game, and we didn’t want to open things up just in case we conceded”. Now, pretty much backed himself into a situation where Foden can only play on the wings, or if a 3-5-2, not at all. Even though Sterling played great first game, Foden/Saka on the wings are the form players this season. Give them one game together Don’t make it into a generation of Foden or Saka.
  3. I just assumed he was saying that in Guatemala, the referee is used to letting these tackles go as it’s a routine thing in their league, and he experienced this when he had referees from there referee games for USA?
  4. They’ve not increased this to increase quality etc. Just been increased as it brings FIFA more money and secures more votes for Gianni from the lesser nations. If argument is about having more teams the chance to play in it etc, then keep it 32 and do it bi-annually, so then you are not having to spread it across three countries and will hopefully reduce the counties putting themselves in a financial mess just to host. Lose 3+ first game, you are screwed for next game. Other country gets a point, they just shut up shop final game to only lose by one less. No incentive to attack at all. If it was Wales/Iran/England in a group, England would be group winners going into final game after one game. As they’re not losing by 4 goals.
  5. I am surprised he doesn’t go similar to what he did at Bayern. Have Muller behind the striker, Gnabry/Sane on wings and then Gundogan or Goretzka with Musiala as the CMs, meaning Kimmich goes RB. That’s if he’s adamant on having Muller as a starter.
  6. Their GD will be so big, can send out a totally different XI, lose 4-0 and still win group.
  7. Depends how you view strikers, but Podolski was good for Germany. Even Schurrle was good for them in doing a job, lack depth like that atm. Werner is a loss with Sane not being fully fit, even if people think Werner is a joker.
  8. Whoever is main commentator, saying what countries are left not to qualify when Concacaf get 6 teams Just such ignorance from someone commentating on football.
  9. Oh dear, the celebration police on Twitter will be going after Morroco.
  10. The two CBs that started should not be starting over Faes. Need pace in a defence.
  11. Sort of game this where Martinez should rip apart this team. Don’t start with Witsel etc next game. Get some fresh faces in. End of that era.
  12. Has a month a season where he’s below par, seems like it’s coincided with World Cup. Belgium going out in groups and him getting a rest would be a major boost for ManCity.
  13. That was back to peak Southgate. A side that had no clue how to control the ball or develop attacking movements. Dreadful. Back to 3-4-3/3-5-2 it is and hope for the best. Going to be something when we go through a World Cup and Foden doesn’t start a game.
