Is it just me or has the crying level been ramped up beyond all comprehension and sensibility this tournament? Used to be reserved for missing a pen in a semi or final shoot out. Now they're blubbing like babies after getting knocked out in normal time in the quarters. Pathetic.
Way too early to get concerned about this but tend to agree. I simply don't think Brazil are THAT good. Flair and skill yeah but if you give up the midfield due to too much of that you're liable to get picked off.
All joking aside this looks as poor as i think we all feared it would after watching Holland comfortably dispatch a USA team we struggled significantly against. No fucking way are we winning this tournament.
Well, got ourselves in a position where it's virtually impossible not to qualify but that was properly uninspiring and can't help feeling as soon as we come up against a top team we're gone.
I'm actually relatively positive after that 2nd half. We could well go into the elongated break rock bottom but the gap is negligible an plenty of time of NJ to work with the players. IF we get a striker worthy of the name in I think we've got a decent shout of staying up.
