I know FIFA and Russia and whoever is involved is horrible in some way... But it's the actual World Cup. Mexico v South Korea suddenly becomes hugely important to my life! England have a likeable squad and manager. Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar. Spain sacking their manager yesterday.

It's so exciting isn't it!

Like wise, Queen. The Argies have always been dirty players.

Rosewhite you're determined to support all the teams everyone else wants to lose aren't you?

RoseWhiteTips · 26/06/2018 20:51

Messi is sublime.🙂

RoseWhiteTips · 26/06/2018 20:52

Germany, Portugal and Argentina.

The80sweregreat · 26/06/2018 20:52

Rose likes to be different! Argies going through tho. Poor Nigeria.

RoseWhiteTips · 26/06/2018 20:54

Well done too to Croatia.🙂

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 26/06/2018 20:54

I was doing so well in my predictions up thread. Bloody Argies.

They got France next, so come on France.!!

RoseWhiteTips · 26/06/2018 20:55

Lineker sounds so disappointed. Poor show.

RoseWhiteTips · 26/06/2018 20:58

Sounds like “Anyone but Argentina.” on this thread.

The80sweregreat · 26/06/2018 20:59

Croatia are through? Brilliant.

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 26/06/2018 21:01

Groups E and F tomorrow. Germany, Mexico, Brazil and Switzerland are my predications.

BitchQueen90 · 26/06/2018 21:03

I just want the teams through that England have more chance of winning against. Grin

RoseWhiteTips · 26/06/2018 21:12

Yeah I gathered.

RoseWhiteTips · 26/06/2018 21:12

You want easy street.

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 26/06/2018 21:15

Nigeria arent exactly an easy team.

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 26/06/2018 21:18

Neither are Croatia. They won all of their games.

alibongo5 · 26/06/2018 21:19

Hmm it's not so much that I want England to have an easy ride - I just can't stand Ronaldo and Maradona (I know he's not playing any more but while he's still in the stands I'll be wanting Argentina to lose) and well Germany are our old rivals who have won too much already (the Man U of the international game I guess).

I have nothing against Spain for instance - though would probably support any underdog against them - which of course is another reason not to support Portugal and Argentina - they are rarely the underdogs.

alibongo5 · 26/06/2018 21:20

Oh and Brazil has the moany, whiney, annoying Neymar!
