    Interestingly, or not, I've just been told by my social media consultant that apparently Haaland is the fastest growing footballer for followers of the tick tocks*.

    This might be bad.

    Counter point: he's an old fashioned footballer who plays the way you want the game played, and when he's not playing football he's working on his dad's farm versus banging chicks in bougie nightclubs in Cabo. I feel like you should be happy about this.

    He has a new born baby so he's been reasonably busy but hey ho...

    If we do lose to Norway then I wouldn't begrudge them victory just as long as they beat the cheating VARgentina who will no doubt get super lucky against the our boy N'Doye (not for long by the sound of it) and Granat Twat ya!

    So two penalties then...

    Chicago: Used to Disappointment.

    Oh, I like him a lot. I just meant bad for our* prospects.

    But, ultimately, bent refs can only make a repeated small attritional skewed decisions that make all the difference.

    FTFY.

    So the Argentinian referee successfully knocked out France the other day, as I was repeated assured he was trying to?

    I think he tried a bit. E.g., ridiculous delay for the penalty. Paltry added time in the first half. Morocco were poor on the day.
    And why are English referees not allowed to ref Argentina games?
    And why did Quansah get a two match ban?

    Guessing the reverse is also true?

    Isn't that the default ban for such a red card?

    Heat index 116F (over 43c) today in Miami because it is going to be super humid. Makes sense that they are kicking off at the hottest part of the day.. I am looking forward to a humdinger to and fro, end to end high energy pressing game with loads and loads of kinetic action and loads of Ambulances....

    And this will be just in the crowd. This fixture was set up because they expected the Brazilians to be there.... oops.

    The Vikings have been at rhe beach all day. We are trying to come down from our Coca leaf tea high in Mexico...
    We are fooked!

    Chicago: Heat stroke waiting to happen.

    No, no. He was "injured".

    Looking forward to seeing how Tuchel approaches coaching England into coming from behind.
    Oo-er.
