    mixture of Asian pride and them being our bitches until someone bigger picks on them

    Its good that Asia are doing better

    2 wins already

    Last WC couldnt muster1 win in Brazil and could only manage 3 draws which is a pretty lousy effort for the AFC

    Still need to get to 4 wins to match 2010 results


    Important we do well in this WC and next WC to maximise chances of increased spots when it expands to 48 in 2026

    Mind you I think we can just write the Saudis off and it going to be hard for Iran to get more wins

    So Japan Korea and Socceroos a lot riding on

    apart from being a dope country full of dope people, Japan at least tries to play attractive, technical football.

    am more than happy for them to do well.

    By then we will have enough of an idea
    France Argy etc aint going to have teams parking the bus when they get to the stage of the tournament they playing the bigger sides so their form is irrelevant
    One game means a lot. Over the last 5 world cups, only 7 out of the 60 teams that lost their opening game made it out of the group.

    do you think the pre-game talk from the portuguese coach consists of not much more than "kick it to ronaldo wherever he is and don't **** up in defence". morocco doing alright i reckon.

    I wouldn't be upset if the Jets trotted out one of these Moroccon blokes as a visa player. Wouldn't imagine there all on millions

    Spain lost their first match in 2010 then won the whole damn thing.

    I know he is now a social media 'thing' but it doesn't alter the fact that the Morocco coach is a very handsome man.

    Scoring past a CB for West Ham. one from Besiktas, a fullback from Southampton and the guy in goals for Wolves isn't that impressive.

    Oh I'm not here for the Costa talk.

    I'm here just to make the Member look silly.

    It keeps him energized.

    My comment was more of a lol at that backline and how good they are compared to the pieces in the puzzle.

    twas funny though this morn because we got that 'other' Costa, the one that's probably gonna cost them big time.

    Still though, when Iniestas genius can make a pass bounce off your knee and go in, then it's not all that bad of a day.

    Also, seeing the 'big guns' scoring today makes it so much more exciting.
    I'm so very very much more amped for this WC than the last 2 for some reason.

    And considering how much they were banging on about it at the last WC, and in the lead up to this one, kinda shows it's not a common thing.

    Disappointed for Morocco. They're an interesting team to watch with a few very skilful players but just don't have the x-factor to go a step further. Portugal were garbage.

    I really like Amrabat, the right winger. I think I saw him play for Watford last season or the season before, and he was very good at causing his defender problems and creating chances.
