UKTexans Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 No USA. No Chile. No Holland. Three of the better teams in the previous WC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viks4life Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) Just read that no one has scored for Argentina, apart from Messi, since last November. Talk about carrying a country. Edited October 11, 2017 by viks4life 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Netherlands didn't even make Euros last year and Chile has obviously been suffering under their high workload for a while now too. While they are traditional nations with some big name players, its not that big a surprise. The fact that USA couldn't make it out of a CONCACAF qualification system that seems to have too many spots as it is is the biggest surprise to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a surprise, but still, when you compare it to 2014 when they had some of the best performances it's quite the fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKTexans Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Our favourite time of the year is here again! Although there are actually some meaningful games this time. Croatia vs Greece Northern Ireland vs Switzerland Sweden vs Italy Honduras vs Australia Denmark vs Rep of Ireland New Zealand vs Peru England and Germany will be fielding 2nd string sides for their friendly clash...

Playoff football is frankyl brilliant. Sometimes it's a little nervy but my god the tension is awesome. There should be some good stuff this week.

UKTexans Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 England playing reasonably well, although Germany should probably be a couple ahead. Lotus Cheek has been impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
