villa4europe Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 They are probably the team in all of world football, club or international, that I get the least enjoyment from watching Blues don't count because I obviously don't watch that shower of shit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Portugal are snidey and dirty and rarely have great football matches considering the players but sometimes can be entertaining for wrong reasons. Netherlands game in 2006 was just complete shithousery and Pepe didnt even play I think people forget they are major overachievers considering the population and the talent they produce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually really love the narrative that international football has grown into now. Its like 90's Wrestling. Teams have developed identities and flat out refuse to change regardless of results or perception. Spain are going to lose having 3 shots on target and 92% possession. Germany save their best for the big occasion, a Scandinavian team will get much further than they have any right to scoring only from corners. It's the only thing that holds my interest these days because it's largely dire football on show. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switzerland will duck and dive friendlies in order to blag a seeding that will be mind boggling when you see them play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YLN Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 There's no 2pm match today because of this group. Why couldn't they play the first game of round 2 of fixtures here now. Or let Ireland have a game against someone. We could be the 25th team. I'm bored Ceferin out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
