KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Should England throw the Belgium game to avoid Brazil/Mexico

They aren't crap. They have good players. England should win, but it will be a contest.

Columbia were really good against Poland, their MF is really good and Falcao is upfront, but Poland were awful.

It should be a good game and England will have to play very well to go through, I think it is MF we will struggle as we do not have anyone with real class to put their foot on the ball and control the game.

It's coming home.

columbias midfied is world class !!!!!

pls tell me who there world class mids are ?

thanks in advance, and good luck

Columbias MF doesn't have to be World Class, it just has to be better than our MF, which it is.

I'd say James Rodriguez is World Class, but that's debatable.

Didn't someone say James Rodriguez is injured?

There are no bad sides in the quarter final of a World Cup

Possibly but I think this is the worst World Cup ever played in Europe. The last one in Brazil was awful after the group stage with the exception of Germany hammering Brazil to give everyone a laugh. The ones in South Africa and Japan/Sth Korea were dreadful.

The African nations have all failed to reach the last 16. Germany have been absolute dog$hit and a poor French team at last woke up and beat Argentina who had the worst defence they have ever had at a world cup. In that game every attempt on target went in until the 80th minute when Messi hit a backpass to Lloris.

England get to the last 8 and that will be seen as success at a time when everyone else has been so bad themselves.

A few good goals but this is not the highest level of football. That is still the CL by a country mile.

There were 3 sides who got through without dropping a point Croatia and Uruguay are not the most entertaining but they could yet take down one of the big boys given the chance. Belgium played the same weak opposition as ourselves. There are no standout teams which makes it interesting but not necessarily good. Its OK for the neutral fan who maybe wants to see a different team win it but there have been few classic matches and VAR is killing the atmosphere of goal celebrations and there have been few players who have put their mark on the tournament.

The next one in Qatar could kill International football before the Mexicans get to host it for the THIRD TIME in 40 years.

worse world cup ever !!!!!

get a grip on yaself

from a fabs point of view its prob up there with the best, unless the polls, and the fans all know less than you,

good god man, you are a barrel off laffs arent you, but dont want a row over it either as we all have different opinions,

some like me like entertainment and correct decisions, some dont .

sorted

come on england

Can't agree on this being the worst world cup.

This has to be one of the best ever. So many goals. Couple of shocks. Germans out in round 1.

And England actually have a chance
