Benzema being out is a pisser. Giroud IN

It’s an absolutely awful group. Only one team who qualified last time and they’ve lost their best player. Think Qatar might top it

Not watching the opening ceremony obviously, there’s being a hypocrite simp for your nation and then there’s willingly having boot lasagne.

Is it not ‘endearingly naff guy’, Robbie Williams doing the opening ceremony?

I’m just hoping for an opening ceremony cameo from our hero

Actually quite tricky to watch the opening ceremony for a non existent tournament.

Could possibly get a point today - this has got nil nil written all over it - but I can’t see them getting anything against either Senegal or Netherlands.

In terms of host nations, they’ll be worse than South Africa.

Qatar national team

  • Absolutely filled to the gills with Cugat juice, redacted supplements, horse medicine
  • Will be going at the tournament honestly as a group of pure sports fans

Would love it if Ecuador just walked off after 5 minutes and went to the pub*

  • whilst possibly traversing several international borders

Hero. Best thing about this is he’s clearly a born and bred southerner, he’s from Torquay ffs.

Ah, Torquay, the town/team that can’t even maintain a rivalry with Exeter as somehow even they have bigger fish to fry
