FIFA World Cup 2022

I've been watching a lot of Robot Wars recently, so hearing Jonathan Pearce this sedate is quite weird.

Fella who just hit the post looks straight out of the cast of Neighbours.

In 1987.

On a positive note, at least every goal Giroud scores will be annoying Benzema.

USA fears neither striker...

Argentina are shit, one man team who can't perform at a World Cup. The rest of their players are bang average.

Yes, players who have bags of top league domestic trophies and play at the best clubs in the world are "bang average".

Only two of those players are playing at the best clubs in the world.

But still, got farmed by farmers, the super farmers can’t farm in the desert amirite?

[Colly]

I'm curious as to which two you mean?

Messi and the fella at Man City

Your definition of best clubs in the world sounds like it's about three clubs.

Juventus and Atlético Madrid aren't among the best clubs in the world, just got a start?

Their forwards alone play for Man City, PSG, Juventus, Athletico, Roma and Inter...

I'd love to know what metric puts PSG above Juve other than shiny pennies.

[Colly]

Now at the ridiculous point that they're not just anti-LGBT, they're anti rainbows of all kinds.

God help them if there was an extremely rare chance of rain whilst it was sunny

I mean, any Italian team are not a best team in the world, so there’s that.

I didn’t know how horny people were for Bang Average Argentina, who proved just how bang average they are by losing to fucking Saudi Arabia yesterday.

I’ll remind you all of this next time Liverpool drop points to some schlubs this season

Most people (and bookies) have them as either favourites or second favourites (behind Brazil). Lowest I've seen at all is 3rd favs (also behind France). I think you're severely underating their squad, and ignoring the undefeated streak they were on. 

Prior to yesterday, their last defeat was to Brazil - in July 2019. They had also had 5 clean sheets on the bounces, only conceded 2 goals in their previous 15 games and had last conceded multiple goals in a game 23 games prior.

If Argentina go on to win the World Cup, are they still bang average in your eyes though, because of that one game?
