Gladstone Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Here are some "rules" for the duration of the World Cup (please add your own...): 1. Avatar must be team related2. When referring to your team, you must refer to them as "we" / "you"3. Belgium is the BEST team in the world and Fellaini has the BEST hair in the world (even better than Charlie Mulgrew). In fact, Fellaini is the most know hair footballer in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ca_gere Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 I'm going for Colombia - I'll sort out an avatar later. Vive Colombia! You just reminded me of this print I saw a while ago.

Lemonade Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 I'm going to buy a Japan shirt off eBay. And Gladstone, rule 3 is wrong because it's the mighty Japanese Ninja Soccer Crows who are the best. Japan wins the cup, Belgium wins a pile of muck / rubber duck etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Juventus doctor reckons Arturo Vidal has a great chance of being fit for the World Cup. He only had surgery on his knee 5 weeks ago, but obviously The King himself heals faster than puny mortals. I only call him The King because he actually refers to himself as The King. His Twitter handle is even @kingarturo23. So badass. La Roja! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camie Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Well, that's a great selection left for me to pick... I was tempted for either Ghana or Cameroon but screw it I'm going for Croatia! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Ghana were pretty handy last time out weren't they? Hard to believe South Africa was four years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 If everyone is fit, I think this is how the lads could line up: Bravo Isla - Medel - Gonzalez - Mena DiazVidal - AranguizValdivia Alexis - Vargas Sampaoli is all about a midfield diamond, with full backs placed in suicidal positions, and Medel often lines up in the back four, but is prone to charge forward, Lucio-style. Valdivia is injury prone, and as un-athletic as a pro-footballer could possibly be. He's a beer-swilling, burger-downing smoker, but too goddamn good to drop. He might also go for a back three, which they did a fair bit in the qualifiers with Rojas playing at the back, and Medel as the lunatic sweeper. If Vidal is passed fit, the cup is ours. Fuerza! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camie Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) Ghana were pretty handy last time out weren't they? Hard to believe South Africa was four years ago. Not sure about the players now but looking at their results from this year and last they haven't been completely convincing. They still have Gyan though. I hope they still to well since Uruguay(specifically Suarez) cheated them out of a semi-final place. Edited May 20, 2014 by Camie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Ghana's squad is lacking, especially in defence, but they've got some great midfield options. Asamoah, Atsu, Ayew, KEVIN PRINCE BOATENG. I don't know how handy Muntari and Essien are these days, but they could do a job. And Gyan, obvs, who is scoring more than a goal a game for whatever club he plays for. He's a dick though, because he insists on wearing the #3 shirt, even though he's a striker, so I hope they go out early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paranoid Android Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) Still still cheated. The incident provides a good case for introducing the option of a penalty goal. This wasn't a foul which removed a goal scoring opportunity, it prevented a certain goal. Of course Gyan could have scored the penalty but it's hard not to feel sorry for Ghana. Penalties are missed most when the pressure is highest and Uruguay benefited from that and Suarez' cheating. I'd be surprised to see them match the 2010 performance though, that was their chance.

Camie Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Suarez didn't make Gyan miss the penalty. No he just hand-balled a clear would have been goal on the line.Most maybe would've done the same, but I still feel sorry for Ghana. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sporting etiquette goes out the window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
