World Cup 2026 - Official Thread

If we lose or draw this after going 4 up, then I will revise my opinion on the liklihood of him going being low, as that is going to enrage a lot of people.

I wonder why he doesn’t make any changes? Or does he want to compound the embarrassment?

So are we going to repeat the semi-final? Burn on, sit deep, try to hang on?
Or will Tuchel say 'fuck it - we'll keep attacking because that's what you cunts want?

When I heard Anthony Barry come out at half time with that emotional "feels" interview, I thought hmmm... they don't quite get it do they. The opposition manager, on the other hand clearly gave them a bollocking, and had the resources at hand to really play if it is their want.

In other news, when I was young I got bought a Meccano set. I thought it was pretty Uber. That is all.

Bringing Anderson and Bellingham on is giving me bringing on MGW and CHO at Swansea in the Carabao cup at 2-0 with 15 minutes left vibes.

Oh fuck - how did Bellingham not score? Why did he take an extra touch?

And then - how did Olise not equalise?

This is fucking bonkers.

Penalty!

Bonkers.

'We kept going forward and Spence was brave'.
Or something.

Dechamps - 'have we done taking the piss out of each other for various reasons?'

Tuchel - 'Nein - I am bringing Chalobah on'.

Looks like Mainoo won't get a single minute though

Deschamps - 'we accept your Chalobah piss take and will make it 5-4'.
Tuchel - 'Mein Gott, a nein goal thriller...'

Deschamps - 'are you scared?'
Tuchel - 'Nein...becomes Zehn'.

He was injured and unavailable tonight apparently

Have I really just watched England beat France 6-4 with Tuchel wearing an England top?

<stares at wine glass suspiciously>

Which colour pill do I take again to exit the Matrix?

Or is this Football California? I can check out any time I like, but I can never leave?
