Absolutely crushing especially when you consider his age.

This was more than likely his last likely his last chance to play for a WC.

yeah, he's 35 or 36 I think. He's been playing well, too, and Tite still had him in starting line-up. Feel bad for the guy.

My picks are similar:

A - Russia, Egypt
B - Spain, Portugal
C - France, Denmark
D - Argentina, Croatia
E - Brazil, Serbia
F - Germany, Sweden
G - Belgium, England
H - Poland, Senegal

England squad announced today among others. No huge surprises for England, though I wish Lallana had made the final 23.

England World Cup squad: Trent Alexander-Arnold in 23-man squad

Yeah. Lallana would have been a good addition. Too bad Ox is injured. At least Southgate smartened up and left Hart out.

Though if I were him, I would have tried to convince Milner to come out of Intl retirement.

German squad named. Knew Goetze wouldn't make it. Surprised Wagner didn't make it over Gomez though. Nils Peterson made it for all the goals for all the goals he scored for Freiburg. Still need to make 4 cuts before the show. Probably one will be a goaltender. If Boetang not healthy he could be out too.

At least no Ulreich.

At least no Ulreich.

Definitely don't want him near there. Germany deep in Goaltending thankfully.

 

[bksballer89]

Fuck

 

[handicappers]

I'll be changing my pick for Egypt to escape the group stage. Feel bad for the kid.

 

[bksballer89]

Egypt 'optimistic' Salah can play in World Cup

 

[Airraidtech]

Iceland up. Fucking USA, garbage institution. Fucking pathetic

 

[bksballer89]

Been saying it forever.

Champions League> World Cup

World Cup will struggle to match level of UCL

 

[potzer25]

Of course. Gather the best from a single country vs best from multiple countries?

Been saying it forever.

Champions League> World Cup

World Cup will struggle to match level of UCL

Crazy how different it is with no team USA in the world cup.

World Cup is little more than a week away and you wouldn't know it.

Decided to adopt England and Nigeria as my 2 teams this world cup

I've actually seen it hyped a lot. Die hards will still watch even without the USA, it's just the casual bandwagoners that won't tune in.

I'll be going for Argentina, though I would like to see Colombia shock the world.
