###❌ This is not a thread for:

  • Comments that aren’t related to football.
  • Trolling or baiting other users or fanbases.
  • Comments about an ongoing game better suited for the Match Thread.

    “Brazil could win the World Cup with their B team” was a common take 12 months ago.

    Our summer window was:

    A £40m left winger who’s injured for four months

    A £60m centre mid who’s addicted to fourteen leg accas

    Two £40m and £30m fullbacks who never play

    I wonder if argentines will go though the same stuff we’re going through with cristiano, but with messi, getting pissed at being subbed off, still getting called up while shit, permanent spot in the starting eleven etc.

    Attackers blocking the gk at set pieces have cost so many goals lately with fouls and offsides. Wonder if teams will stop using this strategy. You can’t mark the gk like he’s an outfield player. These refs are looking for the tiniest foul or impediment on the gk.

    I’m not bitter or anything but the way goalkeepers are protected is a joke. They get away with so much and get fouls called in their favour for absolutely everything.

    Encouraging performance, but fucks sake man that’s a game we should be winning. Lorenzo set us up well but not great in game management. We needed to slow that down after people started gassing and we already had a lead

    Sancet could half pass as a proper name in Basque or some other regional dialect of Spain, but Oihan?? That’s a high elf carpenter or something

    I think I will die if Boca signs Messi even for a short loan. Probably bs but I don’t think my mind would comprehend it and I would just get a stroke.

    Eh, “presumably from” is doing a lot of heavy lifting the

    Did remind me of a spectacular dumb post I saw in a different sub celebrating the Spanish WWC win over England because the (very American) poster didn’t want to see a nation of colonisers win 😂🤷‍♂️
