GROUP G - Belgium, Panama, Tunisia, England

[OnlyBlueWillDo]

Let's be clear: if this was an ordinary situation Turnip Souhgate and his Crusaders would be sent packing by our record point amassing manager and his Belgian team.

The only area of interest for me tonight is what colour Robbie's shoes are and will they be suitably pointy.

I’d much rather face Japan than Colombia. Not sure why you wouldn’t go for this one.

I think if you go the Japan route you meet Brazil next round, I’d rather avoid them.

I think if you go the Japan route you meet Spain next round, I’d rather avoid them.

If you go the Japan route you get to play against Japan though. Colombia for me are a better side.

Brazil in quarters and then France or Argentina in semis most likely if you go that path

 

[stipe]

Anyway its gonna be one weird match where both wants to lose

Nothing to be scared of with Columbia, not been impressed by them, although yeah they are better than Japan but it’s Brazil next if we beat Japan.

Was thinking when the groups were drawn that this would be the best match of the tournament so far but it's a bummer that both teams will have a much easier path if they were to lose today.

You could spend the next few hours watching this, if there's nothing better on....

Link: Nothing else to watch (safe for work)

I think I’d rather play Columbia, then if you beat them, you have Sweden/Switzerland to beat for a place in the semi’s.

Japan then Brazil is harder, Brazil and Spain are the ones you want to avoid for as long as possible.

They were great against Poland, as good as we were against Panama at least. Anyway, the chances are whoever we get it'll be a tough game.

That’s looking too far ahead for my taste but I get it.

 

[Blues Harp]

Turnip Southgate the hypocrite puts the reserves out as predicted.

No Brain bobby does the same.......

Side note: How did Januzai make this team?

Because the other option was to have Kevin Mirallas running the flanks.
