aww. well, i hope this group of players does improve together. there is a danger they never move beyond being a slightly better, more fun england.

wau at that bird's eye view of that swarm of people
We'll probably get another tonight xps, but if so at least there won't be any favourites in the rest of the tourney
― Ismael Klata, Saturday, 5 July 2014 17:55 (twelve years ago)
Chiles just wrote them off in exactly those terms, RS: 'and so Belgium's golden generation go the same way as England's'
― Ismael Klata, Saturday, 5 July 2014 17:57 (twelve years ago)
Favourites take early lead, underdogs never quite mount a challenge is such a disappointing narrative
Otm. Haven't really enjoyed any matches this weekend, here hoping hoping Los Ticos come up with a spanner to throw in the works of the Clockwork Orange *fingers crossed*(xp)

it was hard to parse what I thought of Brazil - Colombia as I'd been drinking for 4 hours already
No way is this Argentina getting past the Netherlands.

SEE YA LATER WAFFLE EATERS
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 5 July 2014 17:59 (twelve years ago)
We hardly ever eat the damned things here in Belgium, to be honest
― StanM, Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:09 (twelve years ago)
mystified by any culture that wld associate belgium w/ waffles over beer&chocolate
― ogmor, Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:11 (twelve years ago)
That's because beer waffles covered in chocolate aren't popular in America. Yet.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:12 (twelve years ago)
and Australians don't drink Foster's DEAL WITH IT
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:15 (twelve years ago)
nobody with respect for their palette would drink Foster's
― Neanderthal, Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:21 (twelve years ago)
Belgium would win a beer World Cup, no contest
― everyday sheeple (Michael B), Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:28 (twelve years ago)
tbh cuisine isn't the terrain I'd choose if I wanted to poke fun at the Belgians
― Ismael Klata, Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:28 (twelve years ago)
terrine either come to think
― Ismael Klata, Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:29 (twelve years ago)
yeah Belgian beer is my fav currently.
― Neanderthal, Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:32 (twelve years ago)
On zing lite here: holland seemingly playing a normal 433 it turns out, front: Depay, VP, Robben. Enjoy it guys!
― In the airplane over the .CSS (Le Bateau Ivre), Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:35 (twelve years ago)
4'33" always works
― willem, Saturday, 5 July 2014 18:38 (twelve years ago)
:-) Have a good one Willem!

Keep trying to make a joke about Chicken and Waffles but I can't do it.

It doesn't matter, we still own this world record http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010%E2%80%932011_Belgian_government_formation
― StanM, Saturday, 5 July 2014 19:03 (twelve years ago)
Saw the 2nd half - well done Argies, that looked easy.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 5 July 2014 19:10 (twelve years ago)
what's the o/u on number of Robben flops tonight
― Neanderthal, Saturday, 5 July 2014 19:15 (twelve years ago)
2010 QFs were way better fwiw.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 5 July 2014 19:18 (twelve years ago)
Little drama so far, last 20 mins of Bra - Col aside.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 5 July 2014 19:22 (twelve years ago)
Holland goalie is p terrible. Luckily they should have more than enough to win anyway. Arg-Belg was mostly dull, liked DiMichelis haircut though.

Worst anthem evah

I don't like the shape of Van Gaal's head :-(

Robert beat me to it
― Riot In #9 Dream (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:05 (twelve years ago)
Roberto rather
Way too flattering, though I see what you mean
― willem, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:06 (twelve years ago)
Where's the middle 3 of our 4-3-3?
― willem, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:07 (twelve years ago)
interesting corner there
― Neanderthal, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:09 (twelve years ago)
er you've got 3 CB's out there afaik so don't know where you get 4-3-3 from?xp
― pandemic, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:09 (twelve years ago)
it's like a 3-4-3
― Roberto Spiralli, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:11 (twelve years ago)
This tournament is becoming less exciting the longer it goes on
― paolo, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:12 (twelve years ago)
this reminds me of that one Simpsons episode
― Neanderthal, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:14 (twelve years ago)
lol u guys
Anyway, there's no functional midfield to speak ofXxpost
― willem, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:14 (twelve years ago)
is it de-pay or de-pie? also, is the memphis pronounced differently to the english way?
― Roberto Spiralli, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:15 (twelve years ago)
nice screen by the ref there
― Neanderthal, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:16 (twelve years ago)
It's the relatively small teams that have provided the excitement
The big name teams have been fairly uninspiring
― paolo, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:17 (twelve years ago)
What's everybody waiting for? Have they only trained for penalty kicks at the end?
― StanM, Saturday, 5 July 2014 20:17 (twelve years ago)
haha i was about to say, 'let's shut it down, play for penalties chaps'
