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

I like him. He's not the most talented but works hard to make the most of what he has got. He's never going to be as prolific as M'bappe but has scored a few vital goals for Scotland.

It's the big one tonight!

The fish n chips of Blighty versus the savoury bureks of Croatia.

Will there be a winner? Or will we end up with some sort of delicious cod and potato burek you can dip in tartar sauce?

I've no idea, it's all still lost in chaos, but I am getting hungry!

I'm at a comedy gig tonight, so won't be watching.

Therefore, could H&V please nominate someone to cheer for Croatia on my behalf

Thanks

A comedy gig when you could be laughing at England?

Hopefully the traitors not supporting England will be taken to the tower.

Nice article on our Austin. I still won't be cheering for Portugal though, I'll be honest. Horrible side.

I can imagine him constructing an intricate routine that all works like clockwork... until Ronaldo stands there like a twat doing something completely different.

I'm not starting a general other games thread yet after the chaos last year when Legion went too soon, but Hull could face a points deduction if they don't sell by the end of the month.

Seems to me it would make more sense to give every Premier League club their minimum prize money at the start of the season so newly-promoted teams aren't at even more of a disadvantage before they have even kicked a ball.

Much as I love Messi, I think Maradona was better (and the best I’ve seen). Ronaldo isn’t in the conversation for me.

I assume you mean C Ronaldo. Because every time this conversation comes up and he’s mentioned I watch a video of the actual Ronaldo to remember who was the greatest to carry that name. If his body hadn’t let him down nobody would be arguing.

You're weird.
