I don't think it's been a weak world cup at all. There hasn't been an obvious favourite or outstanding team but we tend to look back and remember players/teams as being better, more dominant and with greater skill. Perhaps it is all about luck as has been mentioned. Look at these lucky guys...


Hang on, perhaps it was better and with greater skill!😁 We'll never see the like of that team again, unfortunately🙁.

Cheers, Chris

Brazil in 2018 does not play with the 'flair' of teams in the past. It was true in 2014 as well, but at least they had a little more personality. In 2018 it seems like the only way playing like Brazilians of the past was the left back. Otherwise it seemed like "Give it to Naymar and let him go." And in my opinion Naymar is a great player, but he is all about speed and quickness and not flair.

Just about to kick off and my South American wife has just said to me "dinner is ready in a few minutes... are we going to eat outside on the balcony or are we going to watch the football on TV while we eat?"😲

"I said... Oh I see! Now that Peru are already out, and back home, the semi-final has become optional viewing!"😁

Lukaku had a great tournament until this past game. In the running for the golden boot - not sure what you saw....
I don't think he will get golden boot, from 11 attempt in the box scored 4. I think striker should do a bit better.

They had such a good team this year, I don't think Neymar had fully recovered though.

I don't think he'll get the golden boot either.

Not a problem, the media can keep ramming ‘66 down our throats.
Now how about Ally’s Army 😁

liking the use of the oasis track, don't look back in anger....
Southgate has done a great job with what is not a team of world class players. There are some top players, but our mid field and squandering goals away showed the problems and maybe lack of big game experience. Wind forward 4 years with a developed squad and I'd def look forward to playing the big teams. Could've and should've's are as irrelevant as some of the current tweets blaming the ref (who I thought did a job on the whole).
