VillaChris Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 France played pretty well. Balance looking much better upfront. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Like I said in one of the other threads, there's a real dearth of striking talent these days, and this is affecting a lot of teams in this tournament. A lot of teams have been playing well but have nobody decent up front to finish or hold up the ball and it's costing them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 I do like the Peruvian red sash kit. Best one at the WC for me. secondly can they just bloody well score a goal at some point. Everything but at this stage in both games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Jeffersson Farfan will miss Peru's last game after having suffered a traumatic head injury during training. was knocked unconscious and out for several minutes apparently. Hope he's OK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornso Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 (edited) Bit of feeling building that maybe we'll be able to sneak through tonight. Queue Australia 0-3 Peru and/or France 0-0 Denmark. Edited June 26, 2018 by Hornso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 All of these results could go either way but my prediction is France 3-1 Denmark, Australia 2-2 Peru. Mile Jedinak will score both our goals from VAR verified penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted June 26, 2018 Author Moderator Share Posted June 26, 2018 I hope Australia don't bear the brunt of a wounded Peru who've only lost 1-0 to both European sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Can't believe Peru will go out of world cup without even scoring a goal, they are certainly better than that. Think they'll beat Australia tbh. Aussies struggle to create much in open play and think they'll struggle against Peru's style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornso Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Would like to see Aussie striker and Villa fan Jamie Maclaren get on the pitch. Cahill to get 10-15 minutes at the end for his aerial ability is my guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 im still not sold on france, could be saving their best football for the latter stages but they definitely need to go up a couple of gears for the QFs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have been sacked for that embarrassment of a final two years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can easily believe they think the group stage is beneath them. Hopefully they get an Argentina who've found a second wind (or a first wind!) in the last 16.
