Halfway there! Played poor for 30 minutes, then a bit of old-fashioned knock it long and Senegal at sixes and sevens!

Bellingham is such a machine.

Amazing player. Carries so much of the play forward and pushes the team to the opposite net.

Yeah Dortmund are going to get a phenomenal fee for Judge, his price has gone up 50 million this tournament alone and they wanted £100 million before it started lol.

Chelsea, City and Liverpool alone are desperate for a CM like him.

England has looked great the second half.

Makes sense in a way, they have a defense highly susceptible to counters - but their attack is similarly great on the counter.

Harry is looking great, Bellingham a strong candidate for young player of the tourney, (it'll be him or one of the spaniards?) and starting foden was wise.

No more sweet brass tunes in the stands with the last sub-Saharan African team going out :/

Also, please EU can we treat advertising sports betting like advertising cigarettes already? The non-stop spam for this cancerous industry is driving me crazy, I have to rush the remote to mute the TV as soon as a half ends.

Option 1: 16 groups of 3
Option 2: 12 groups of 4 (with some 3rd teams qualifying)
Option 3: Divide the WC in 2 halves, 24 each with 6 groups of 4, winners of each side play the final.

FIFA is killing the World Cup and nobody is stopping them.

I thought they decided years ago on option 1 already

I've heard that some people broke into Sterling's house while his family was home and stole everything.

I dunno, he’s bloody excellent but so are folks like Kane and Foden. Quite tasty squad they’ve got these days

This 100%

Eugh also why expand the World Cup?

I get trying to grow the game and make it as global as possible, but there’s a cutoff in terms of a requisite level of quality and competition.

As it is you’ve got pretty clear tiers, with the South American big 2 generally being out in front with the traditional European big hitters.

Then the best of Asia/Africa, the US and Mexico and a slew of European nations, the next best from South America who seem relatively well-matched

Below that you have teams who may get the odd result, but generally get smacked around on the regular. Where are the teams coming from to not just expand the number of mismatches?

Not from Europe for the most part, the only region that does have the sufficient depth, but they’re being allocated 3/16 of these new places in this proposed expansion.

But no Sterling as he is flying back to England and is no longer part of the Squad. House was broken into while his family was inside.

England might actually do it. I think they're going to go to at least the semis

I hope your USA/Arsenal jinxes don't apply to it coming home or not!

But yeah England weren't great against the USA but have looked rather good so far, a large impediment is France are also looking rather tasty. Whoever loses that one I think you're seeing a potential finalist going home at the Ro8 stage just based on how the draw has panned out
