Mr Popodopolous Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 (edited) Expected goals has Canada as the better side. Certainly seemed from what I saw and the brief highlights that but for finishing they were. All 4 sides in with a chance of progress by the looks.

stephenkibby. Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 Amazing really, 20 odd shots 4 on target. Players can ping 40yard passes with accuracy yet get anywhere near that 8yard wide goal and get nowhere it with shots. Just shows most of it in's the head. Anyway unlucky Canada so deserved to win. Belgium? so poor i know sometimes winners of the thing get off to a bad start,but no chance this lot are going deep into this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 Belgium bit of an aging side aren't they. Sofascore said average age of starting line-up 30.5...have they seen better days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledAjax Posted November 24, 2022 Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 I presume the build up to Portugal v Ghana will focus on Semenyo. Cannot think of any other players in that game who have made any kind of news worth discussing recently. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wine is a bit chilly Don't get cocky as French summer hailstones are the only ones to have left my hire car with more dimples than a golf ball and screens (front and rear) with more cracks than a City defence.

Yeh it's pretty bad. When they're up the shady end it's pretty nigh on impossible for me. The socks help a little yes.

I think if Cameroon can find their finishing boots they've got a goal in them. Mbuemo and Choupo-Moting look lively and dangerous when running at the Swiss defence. Just need to find the finish to beat Sommer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're into installations I refer you to 'King' Edward Keinholz, whose major retrospective I was fortunate to catch in NY years back. When done well an immersive experience. Badly, it just recalls countless 'house parties' of my youth around the art colleges of South London. interesting, thanks...........Personally i believe that Emin is an ultimate example of the "Emperor's New Clothes" Ha!

Super Posted November 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 BREAKING NEWS..................... Wifi down on England family cruise ship England players' families have been staying offshore on a luxury £1billion cruise liner which comes complete with six swimming pools, 30 bars and the tallest slide on a ship. But the wifi isn't working. That's what the Daily Mail report this morning as the England players struggle to have contact with their loved ones ahead of facing USA. A rest day is scheduled for Saturday, but the players may not be able to see their family members due to Covid concerns. The internet problems have meant limited contact has been made this week. It has allowed the players to focus fully on the matter at hand, but it is far from ideal not being able to touch base with family, wives, girlfriends and children in the lead up to Friday's crucial encounter.

DolmanGaz Posted November 24, 2022 Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 Spare a thought for the commentator in the S Korea game... the GK and the entire back 4 are all called Kim. There is also a Kim on the bench. MF and striker both called Hwang. And back to the bench, 3 players called Cho and 2 called Kwon. Just now, Countryfile said: Take a look at the Korean back four KIM.

Judging by an interview the other day Southgate does. The number of people testing positive in England continues to fall thankfully but the most recent figures I saw from the ONS estimated that 1 in 60 were infected so probably wise to have a little caution. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
