⚽ ⚽ World Football Cup 2018 - The Prelude (Le Threadoi) ⚽ ⚽

Germany are always the most boring contender aren’t they. Hope it’s pretty much anyone else except Portugal

[Jeremys_Iron]

Flat earth trophy?

[nestor]

I understand the idea but they’re backed into a corner and they couldn’t do anything. That they have is just ridiculous grandstanding. Just making it a hundred times worse by this. World Cup >>>>> “integrity” of the federation (who gives a shite)

*Be interesting to see how they actually do. Everyone knows their roles and everyone but the striker picks themselves and that could be enough to see them through but then in-game management could be so important and who the hell knows in tournament football. Be mental if Hierro deviates radically from the starting line up though

yeah, team doesn’t pick itself nowadays, which is frightening.

Fascinating

Last call for the predos thread mates. Currently 19 in for bants and dinger. Any entries before kickoff in the axis of evil derby will be counted

Be amazing bants if he sends some folk home and calls up ayoze perez or that Chelsea clogger last minute

[profk]

torres on the plane

[drspaceman]

Be amazing bants if he sends Sergio Ramos home

Imagine his face when he hears the news

[Aggpass]

And names himself in the squad

[nestor]

Keeper + Back four (f carvajal’s fit) + Busquets Iniesta (rotation issues aside) + either Koke/Thiago + Isco & Silva + (striker)

Mostly picks itself imo. Asensio the most natural impact sub imaginable. Might be so straightforward a manager doesn’t matter

Better!

[anon89873996]

You had the better cup, I had the better world. This one is going to extra time. It wasn’t meant as a contest, just world cup excitement spilling out in emoji form.

[Jeremys_Iron]

I think we should combine forces and call it a draw. I’ll only Diana Ross it if it goes to pens.

WFH tomorrow (WORLDCUP From Home)!

Team leader: “feel free to come in late so you can watch the games in the pub if they clash with work”.

World Cup!!
