Other Games - 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup Edition (+ warm-up matches): Villa-watch

[Brazilian Villain]

Argentina's record in World Cup semi-finals (excluding 1978 which didn't have semi-finals). P6 W6 L0. Seriously impressive.

Good cross by Morgan. Value gone up to £200m now

I blame Wonderwall.

Finally, a sensible reaction.

Too fucking right.

Singing along with that is the second worst thing the England team have done behind the Nazi salute.

They showed a shot of Mick Jagger shaking his head in disbelief towards the end of the game, and maybe, just maybe, he was anticipating the dirge.

Haven't read the thread, but all I'm gonna say is I'm a thick Brummie who doesn't earn about £10m a year to make these decisions, and I called exactly what Tuchel was doing wrong and what was gonna happen in those last 25 mins. I even found myself second guessing how many subs he had made after he didn't change it when we went 1-1. Incomprehensible he left it like that.

Has to go. One of the worst managerial in game performances I've ever seen. Somewhere right now a certain Gareth Southgate is having a very smug brandy, because he never did anything like that.

[Dogtanian]

Southgate wouldn’t have got past Mexico tbh.

I saw Mick Jagger's grandma, but I couldn't locate Michael himself.

I blame Wonderwall.

Maybe.

Tuchel fucked it by going defensive 15 mins too early.
Went full on Southgate

[Mellin]

Southgate wouldn’t have got past Mexico tbh.

He probably would've. He's the second best England manager of all time. Probably would've had an actual right back playing at right back, rather than an average centre half, so would've been more comfortable.

That today was absolutely farcial from the manager. Completely dire and he alone has thrown any chance of winning that game. The players will know it too. P45 please.

Maybe.

Definitely.

Definitely.

Must I be the voice of common sense here? Me!?

Sorry, Woodrow.

[Smirker]

Tuchel being negative after all his jig 5alk abiht bravery is a mad ting..

Sack him.

A disgrace to the bald community.

Get a proper bald in like Guardiola.

Seen a lot of references to Southgate, but not sure about thst comparison as Southgate stood by and did nothing as you could clearly see the momentum in games changing.  Tuchel made changes tonight which actuslly caused the momentum of the game to change. 

[TonyD]

It’s such a pisser.
We had half a chance before Tuchel made such bad subs.
Still it’s mad busy for Wednesday night make that a very very Saturday night where I am and people are are all good natured and having beers.
