Russia was good, much much better than at euro 12, we only had problems in attack because our main player Shirokov was out because of injury, discipline, team balance, defence were on the good level

if only Herrera had a neck!!

 

[Trequartista]

Herrera is a legend.

 

[Yamen]

and the least paid manager in the world cup yet the most passionate on the sidelines. love him..

 

[Trequartista]

dat mullet

 

[GordoDeCentral]

Actually we were in much better conditions than Korea and Algeria

no way!

There was something Capelloesque. The commentators are saying how tactically locked the Russians looked in all their games.

indeed

The only team I can bet on proceeding is Germany. Argentina are the second favorite for making the quarters, but that's a 65-35. I give slight advantage to Brazil (solely for the home ground) and France. Everything else is 50-50, even if some might see the Dutch and Belgium as favorites.

indeed

Just a suggestion , how would everyone feel if we had a poll for each match from the next round ? . Is it even possible , would members here be interested ?

poll?

 

[Mister]

poll?

As in predicting winners of each games . Similar to how we do a poll for MOM

 

[Vinny Del Pogba]

Mexico - USA for the semifinals. You heard it here first.



But seriously, you want to talk about this country going soccer crazy if we win the first round then find some way to knock out Messi and Argentina??? It would be incredible.

Belgium is going to give the defense problems though. I don't like our chances of getting to the quarterfinals.

that would probably mean having separate threads for each game

 

[89man]

Argentina to win it hopefully.

Is it possible to open up a poll in the this thread and then after the games on sat (BRA-CHI /COL -URU ) , have a new poll up again in this thread for the next games (NED-MEX /CRC-GRE ) and repeat it like that ?

Didn't see the waffles playing today but unless they raise their intensity and overall chemistry by a couple of notches, don't think the US could have landed an easier opponent (a group-winner no less). They obviously have individual talent but are probably the most severely under-performing team at the WC.
