aimaad22 4156 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Oh dear 2-0 out of nowhere. Aye I agree France haven't looked that great at all. It's just a side full of experienced winners though isn't it? Hope Messi stuffs them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howmanheyman 33199 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 The ball needed to bounce for Morocco in the box but it bounced France's way twice. They can hold their heads up, definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was listening to the Newsagents podcast last week where they were talking to some French people and really there isn't too much animosity from their pov, they just think we're odd and a bit obsessed. We are like mackems to them, as this tweet kind of illustrates. Anyway, allez les bleus on Sunday. l🇫🇷 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 35079 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 (edited) I’d like Argentina to win as I love Messi. But I don’t really buy into this written in the stars sort of thing.

Renton 21624 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 (edited) I want France to win because I'm a bit of a francophile and I'm not that keen on Argentina or the Messi hype. But mainly because: Ginola, Robert, Arfa, Cabaye, ASM >>>>>>> Ardiles, Colocinni, Guitierez. Edited December 14, 2022 by Renton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35079 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Re: Messi it’s more for his career that I admire him. He’s obviously done well and performed above expectations at this World Cup (given he’s well past his peak). But I think his performances at this tournament have been a bit overhyped too. Mbappe hasn’t done a lot in the last two games and has definitely had too many plaudits so far 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30610 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 I can't get my head round this 'If Messi wins the WC it will cement his place as the greatest footballer ever'. It's one game, you can't judge an entire player's career on 90 minutes. There are over 200 national teams in the world and once every four years one of them wins the WC, to judge a player's personal success on whether they've won it or not is an absolute nonsense. But still, I suppose it creates a nice, easy narrative. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44874 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Be canny if he injured himself in the warmup and Argentina went on to win. I'd enjoy watching pundits and commentators try to construct the "HE INSPIRED THEM FROM THE BENCH" narrative. Look at his face! Look at his inspirational little face! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still, I suppose it creates a nice, easy narrative. No one says not even playing at a World Cup means anything about George Best and his legacy (for example). It just the way the media likes to build stuff up etc. But, aye. It’s patently bollocks. They were hoping for a similar Ronaldo narrative. Imagine the jizzfest I’d he’d played well and it was a Portugal v Argentina in the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
