As World Cup finals go, that might have just about been the worst one I've ever watched. For all the wrong reasons, too, because it was never really a true competition. What I watched was not the two best teams in the tournament duke it out for the top prize, but one side looking to [...]
So, England are out, after a Tuche disasterclass in the second half of last night's defeat to Argentina. An Argentina side who, let's be honest, are one of the most unlikeable you can imagine. I think I speak for us all when I say: Help us Mikel Merino, you are our only hope. I had [...]
It was a shame to see Egypt go out yesterday. Certainly, having Mo Salah sad is no skin off my nose, but Messi aside, Argentina are quite an unlikeable side. Martinez in goal, Martinez and Romerro as their centre backs, Enzo Fernandez being a little ratty prick. Yeah, they're not the sort of team I [...]
So we have ourselves a new world cup winner and that country is the Argentinians, who managed to overcome the French on penalties last night, despite a Herculin effort from Mbappe to try to drag the French over the line. It was to be Messi's World Cup, arguably the greatest of all time, who now [...]
So, we now know what the World Cup Final will be, with Argentina up against the French, who finally ended those Moroccan dreams with a 2-0 victory. I watched the first half, saw Morocco create a couple of good chances, but then had to head out, so didn't manage to grab the second half and [...]
Morning folks - how we all doing? Enjoy the festivities of football yesterday? I must admit that I didn't expect to be talking about a Denmark exit at the hands of Australia for the knockout stages, that's for sure. The Danes looked impressive at times in the Euro's and I just assumed that it would [...]
Morning folks - how are we all doing? Feeling groovy? Or feeling a little disappointed? I guess if you're a Welsh reader then probably the latter, but console yourself in the fact that Arsenal are better than any international team anyway. Soon it'll be Christmas and we can get back to focusing on the most [...]
Wellety, wellety, wellety - how about that from the Saudi Arabian's over the Argies yesterday, eh? That was some statement victory from the supposed whipping boys in the group, which also blows the group right open now and I think might have contributed to the absolute snooze-fest that was Mexico v Poland. I went to [...]
Happy Saturday folks. I'm about to depart to the US of A for a bit of a holiday and so this will be the last 'normal' time blog for a while I reckon. So what have we had today then? Or more accurately, what went down yesterday? Unami Emery sat in front of the press [...]
Before I talk about the inevitable news re: Torreira and his potential signing, how about a word for The Argies, eh? I mean, we thought it was England who had the monopoly on bottling it big time at the World Cup, but those Messi-led misfits completely sh*t the bed last night and now are only [...]
