Gonna get jaw ache from explaining to pub punters why Fellaini is dogshit tho

For real thought that was a massive let-off for Martinez and I'd be quite surprised if the Belgium players weren't in semi-open mutiny by tomorrow.
― Matt DC, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:04 (five years ago) link
Can't begrudge belgium that really, they had to dig deep and take the game by the scruff of the neck, and they did so, silencing the doubters (like me) who thought they were all just a bunch of flat-track primadonnas who couldn't do it when the chips are down.
― Neuer write off the germans (Bananaman Begins), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:04 (five years ago) link
is Fellaini bad or is it really just United fans drivel
― Van Horn Street, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:05 (five years ago) link
at this rate of how the round of 16 has been, Colombia-England will either end a scoreless draw after 120 minutes or will be 5-4 off of a ball Kane heads in with the back of his head
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:05 (five years ago) link
I mean, I haven't really been silenced, I'm still posting.
― Neuer write off the germans (Bananaman Begins), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:05 (five years ago) link
that was my favourite half of football in absolutely ages. japan totally outplaying belgium, keeping it smart and putting together some really good attacking moves, lovely crossfield passes that I will be dreaming about for a long time, weird lil uzi looping header, martinez managing to make killer subs yet again somehow and total agonising heartbreak at the end. world cup football is the best football.
also just want to point out i've had inui in my fantasy football team from the start and that's why i'm top of the league bb
― ogmor, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:06 (five years ago) link
is this the first game so far where VAR has not been mentioned once?
― I'd Rather Kecak (NickB), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:07 (five years ago) link
this match is one that makes me glad I quit gambling. can't imagine how many things I would have destroyed had I had money on Japan straight up.
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:08 (five years ago) link
VAR was briefly mentioned prior to one corner, they were looking for a handball and didn't find one
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:09 (five years ago) link
Martinez is fundamentally a berk, but a huge trade-up on Marc Wilmots
― Neuer write off the germans (Bananaman Begins), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:09 (five years ago) link
are you a bad poster or is it just this post?
― Number None, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:10 (five years ago) link
that didn't answer my question!
― Van Horn Street, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:11 (five years ago) link
Truly those Japan players had earned a blub or two, unlike Neymar crying after winning a group game against Costa Rica.
― Alan Alba (Tom D.), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:12 (five years ago) link
i still sort of love martinez. he is definitely entertaining and it would be amazing if he managed to win the world cup
― ogmor, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:12 (five years ago) link
Fellaini is not a "bad" player per se, but he lends himself to a particular style of football that doesn't endear itself to fans. He's also a crutch for tactically limited managers
― Number None, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:13 (five years ago) link
fellaini is one of the great villains of contemporary football
― ogmor, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:15 (five years ago) link
A nominal central midfielder who owes his entire continued career to playing like Niall Quinn for five minutes every game.
― Matt DC, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:18 (five years ago) link
kind of looking forward to fellaini v brazil tbh
― I'd Rather Kecak (NickB), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:20 (five years ago) link
not a player you'd ever want to see near a starting lineup but i don't get ppl who act like he is utterly worthless, he's obviously a fantastic option to have with 10 mins to play
― Windsor Davies, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:20 (five years ago) link
you've already failed in some fundamental way when you have to resort to that option is the thing
― Number None, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:22 (five years ago) link
I had a small bet on Japan to win, bet365 actually awarded it after they'd gone 2-0 up the suckerz
― shaqiri tip (nashwan), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:22 (five years ago) link
should only put Fellaini in with 8 1/2 minutes to play, imo

kind of looking forward to fellaini v brazil willian frodown tbh

tbf to Fellaini he is good enough to make 25 appearances for West Brom next season.
― Alan Alba (Tom D.), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:26 (five years ago) link
you think witsel is pissed that fellaini steals all the fro-tention?
― supreme court justice samuel lance-ito (voodoo chili), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:26 (five years ago) link
obv feel sorry for japan but that was the sort of amazing knock out game they've deserved for a while. still buzzing from that
― ogmor, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:28 (five years ago) link
Woman I work with fancies the shorts off Fellaini. Phew, not half.
― Alan Alba (Tom D.), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:29 (five years ago) link
spoken like a true utd fan
you don't ever want to see a guy like Fellaini become a starting player for your team, i get that, but acting like you're above lumping it long in the last tens mins when your original plan isnt working (especially when the change actually works, as it did tonight) is such bullshit
― Windsor Davies, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:37 (five years ago) link
Open mutiny against Martinez? FFS Matt
― imago, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:37 (five years ago) link
Not to tempt fate but quite a drop-off of VAR madness since the knockout stage began no?
― shaqiri tip (nashwan), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:39 (five years ago) link
i made such an insane noise when inui scored. lads, i love football
― ogmor, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:41 (five years ago) link
so how many spurs goals is that now?
― I'd Rather Kecak (NickB), Monday, 2 July 2018 20:41 (five years ago) link
I count 14 from past and present players.
― Matt DC, Monday, 2 July 2018 20:43 (five years ago) link
there are levels to this thing. Obviously going long to the big lad is not a mortal sin in and of itself, it's when it's your only Plan B that it becomes a problem. And that's been the case with three consecutive underperforming Utd managers

Maybe the three consecutive underperforming United managers are to blame then.

Lots of anger regarding a football player to deal with.

how many plans do you imagine the average manager has
