    Casemiro has had an absolutely outrageous long shot which has hit the woodwork or drawn an equally outrageous save in pretty much every game of him I've seen.

    I missed that with the new page.

    It's nice to see james out himself as absolutely clue about football as times goes on, thus proving me right as usual.

    The world wants a Brazil-France final. Please, let's not have any of these turgid European sides interfere with our destiny.

    I quite like Vini Jr, his head down directness, and ability to recover situations he meffs up by not giving up seems quite un-Brazilian generally.

    Tite looks like he could be Richarlison's dad. They have the same face.

    He must be good considering who he plays for. I just don't watch nearly as many La Liga or CONMEBOL games as RL so I must have just caught a few dodgy ones.

    Brazil being that short to win the whole thing took me by surprise. Have they always been just over 2/1 or has a Richarlison overhead kick plummeted the odds

    That combined with Germany/Argentina sinking.

    The Brazil-Argentina final is on if Saudi Arabia can bring themselves to win another.

    Whoever lost that final would set a seethe record that would never be topped in our lifetimes.

    The fucking nerves here, our useless backup keeper trying to defend against the aerial bombardement give it to Taremi and Azmoun early doors, we can't afford to be on the back foot.

    I kind of want Wales to win this, but only because I have a dream scenario where England and Wales play out a drab 0-0 to both qualify and make #USMNT seethe their faces off.

    Last minute England OG in said game to then allow us to sneak out of France's quarter of the draw?

    America defeat incoming.

    Then we end up looking like mongs when Wout Weghorst dumps us out. I'd rather we smashed everyone then have a good pop at France.

    Isn't there about 189 countries at the next one too?

    That's going to be about 8 games per day and featuring classics like Montenegro vs St Kitts.

    The 48 team World Cups I've gone through on FM are the pits. You'll have a group of say France, Venezuela and Togo. The first game will be Venezuela 1-1 Togo and then the remainder is who will ship the fewest goals to France and thus progress to the round of 32 with 1 point. Obviously a huge advantage for the teams playing in the 3rd game, as well.

    I guess the knockouts will be good.

    Azmoun should have just put it away himself instead of passing.

    England are a very good side. It’s just the defence is genuinely as average as it gets at international football aside from your right backs. 3 atb masks over this due to Sir Gareth’s tactical prowess but even then I’m not sure it copes against that France attack who seem up for it without the creep playing to ruin their flow.

    Smash Mbappé early doors and we'll roll them.

    Seriously though, I said before the tournament they're a bit average in central midfield and even Australia highlighted that. And obviously there's Lloris who can chuck one in at any moment. They're not unbeatable.

    I assume that they’ll add an extra midfielder in when playing a competent side. Goals galore if not though.

    Lucas Hernandez getting injured might be their biggest blessing in disguise alongside Benzema not going

    A draw is hopeless for both, isn't it? I suppose it would still give Iran a chance if they beat the Great Satan.

    England could be through already so they might put out a weaker side for Wales.
