Today's match is the most unnecessary idea in the world cup.A burden for both teams.
Why not make in interesting? Like maybe winner has a free ticket for next world cup or something..

Reports of Southgate watching the whole Croatia game again at 4am are just grim.

Some of the third place playoff games have been a blast fwiw. Germany Uruguay in 2010 springs to mind.

there's probably a fuck-ton of money involved.

$24M vs $22M (on top of all the other money)

not ALL the other money, but some other money

i don't think making two teams of probably disheartened losers sit around for another 3 or 4 days when they could be getting some down time in the very brief window before they're back in pre-season training is good for anybody tbh

You wait til 2022.

third place play off is fantastic idk what you're moaning about, it's like a pressure valve where people just get to let rip, it averages about 4 goals a game and w belgium & england it's probably going to be a much better game than tmw
― ogmor, Saturday, 14 July 2018 12:24 (five years ago) link
Yes, I'm right into 3rd/4th place playoffs

commentator acknowledging -- by unavoidable implication -- that ENG squads for many years prior to this one were not "likeable"
― mark s, Saturday, 14 July 2018 13:57 (five years ago) link
Reasonably likeable up until the point when EBJT and TWP become fixtures, grim after that.Lukaku vs Kane makes this a game with some actual stakes at least.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:01 (five years ago) link
actual world cup winner Ray Wilson used to pump embalming fluid into dead bodies, what's not likeable about that?
― calzino, Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:01 (five years ago) link
it's the one acceptable place to pump it!
― mark s, Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:03 (five years ago) link
oops
― mark s, Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:04 (five years ago) link

well, that's what you say!
― calzino, Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:04 (five years ago) link
Could use some of that fluid right now tbh.

this team is madness, deserve to get shredded

Ashley Young would have hacked the shit out of Meunier there.
Just switched on and what the actual fuck?

Be good if Belgium could break some kind of scoring record for the play off match.

kane looks haunted, is that new?
― mark s, Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:09 (five years ago) link
do any cards in today's match carry over to the next FIFA international match? or can they just kidney punch each other all game if they want to?
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:11 (five years ago) link
lol Sterling looks like Tyrion Lannister next to Kompany
rose another that shouldnt really be left defending back post
tottenham sickness that

this feels like an international friendly. I can dig....
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:13 (five years ago) link
way more fun than when I watch my local team lose their tenth straight later tonight
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:15 (five years ago) link
suspect Belgium actually wants to win as 3rd place would be their best ever finish in the World Cup whereas 4th would just tie their best.
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:18 (five years ago) link
I would have thought that England would want to win because it would be one better than 1990.
― Visibly Over 25 (snoball), Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:21 (five years ago) link
BEL just seem more fancy rn
― mark s, Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:21 (five years ago) link
xpost true, I could see that as well
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:21 (five years ago) link
That and the fact that they've put out their strongest side whereas England are playing Eric Dier.
― Alan Alba (Tom D.), Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:22 (five years ago) link
excellent from sterling

does Southgate own like 70 of those vest kits or does he just dry clean the same one each time
― fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:24 (five years ago) link
immediately gets criticised by brian kerr for a wrong decision which seema kneejerk to me
― dele alli my bookmarks (darraghmac), Saturday, 14 July 2018 14:24 (five years ago) link
it was a good ball, Kompany closed on it well forcing Kane to adjust, but it was a real opp from Sterling

Neanderthal - if you're talking about the waistcoat then it's the official Marks & Spencer England suit so yes he probably does have a wardrobe full of them right now.
Hoddle still trying to make 'The Love Train' happen against colossal public indifference.
