FIFA WORLD CUP 2026 - DISCUSSION AND WATCHALONG THREAD ⚽️. Part 8

[placemats]

Let's continue the discussion.

Gordon was fabulous - I bet his mum is so proud!

Not if you’re managed badly. That matters a lot.

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;

I stand by that. Sorry not sorry. If it bothers you that much get the post deleted.

Oh, who gives a toss what those graceless thugs are 'upset' about?

Let them join a campaign group if or when any of them actually go back to living in Argentina. Instead of using the WC as a venue for their inane sloganeering, in blatant violation of tournament rules. But I guess rules don't apply when twinkletoes Messi is your man.

The argies were a dirty playing team in the first half and deserved far more yellow cards.

I think Argentina's game play is to look crap for the first half, they did'nt attack at all. then when the other team are lulled into a false sense of safety, argentina attack over and over

He's quite an inspiring character also !.in life he's dug in and done so much when his backs against the wall.

Why are another 3 countries hosting

Why cant one country host?

Of course they won't, the fifa president is hardly going to start enforcing actual rules about political involvement in football after letting trump decide who got a red card. Isn't he a massive Argentina supporter anyway?

England fans blame the manager every time though. He can't get out there and kick the ball for them

Gotta spread the gravy around.

It's getting late and I'm tired. Night night peeps.

of course it bothers me. How on earth could you be happy that anyone dies young. Absolutely disgusting. I've reported the post

Because they desperate and had nothing to loose
Then our manager threw defense at them to stop them thereby keeping the ball in Messi half
Where he shines.

Imagine if we kept feeding the ball to Bellingham ?

Also how incredible was Mexico 😍 that will go down in history.

I agree this is their approach. I don’t like it.

Can anyone tell me how to get tickets in 2030? Do you have to be a member of a football club? Thank you

It was Argentina who made it a constant string of fouls for so much of the first half

Morocco
Portugal
Spain

My first thought would be what do those who actually live on the Falkland Islands actually want. But you do you.

We will always have Mexico! 😍

Too many teams. Even more if Infantino gets his way, and he usually does.

It's a pity because as I said on an earlier thread, there was a unique atmosphere when just one country hosted the WC, and fans could get to know a little about the country, the people and the language. All very generic now.

Tuchel decided to put on a load of defenders and just let Argentina have their chance. That second half was on him for his game plan. It’s so bizarre. Wouldn’t expect that from him.

And I’m not English.

We will always have Squeaky Kane 😂
