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

[Rory]

Spain certainly didn't impress me. Dominated possession but created very little and only won because of two goalkeeper errors.

That back 4 isn’t all that, Porro, Laporte and the Hair Bear Bunch,  beatable.

And their keeper had two mad moments in the second half, charging out like Neuer on crack.

[AV82EC]

Can’t see beyond France in that one but I suppose you never know.

[BoVillan esq]

I wouldn’t discount either England or Argentina.

Yeah I get that, Argentina, the dark ones, they have a way about them, just when you think they are done up steps the great one and they go to a whole different level, plus, they play with a lot of emotion

[Skipper_The_Eyechild]

Only two results from here on will actually surprise me, that's Switzerland beating Argentina and France/Spain not winning it. England and Argentina is a coin toss for me and Norway have a mean left hook (Haaland).

[Crown Hill]

Only half watching it but I’m sure in one segment Mica Richards said it was an advantage that Guehi trained with Haaland then they came back and following the others he said anybody who said it was an advantage was wrong and he didn’t know why they said it!

England’s Harry Kane thought it a good idea to spend the day golfing with Donald Trump. That is he golfed with a rapist, racist, war criminal. Serial liar, cheat and pedophile. A sexual predator who owes $5M to a woman he assaulted. He’s accumulated immense wealth for himself and family while in public office at the expense of the American people. But yeh Harry go golf with him.

He probably used his magic chin.
