World Cup Thread. Sun. 22nd June

They don't deserve to get that penalty for how theatrical he fell and the girly scream for a little kick on the side of his foot. The play acting in this World Cup continues to irate me. Man up.

I guess Verthongen steps back in, no real problem, they are both as bad as each other

Nearly choked on my nescafe there. Very good!

Let's hope Fellaini gets injured

They can replace him with a broomstick

No - we want him back fit and well to resume his masterful performances in the rag midfield.
If he was injured they might replace him with a broomstick and that would be an improvement for them.

Wow. Bobby Moore like stop followed up with a Messi like drag back. Kompany is the business.

And the Belgian fans even sang our Vincent Kompany song briefly after this as well!

 

[THX-1138]

Belgium hyped way beyond their worth. Russia being a little bit above mediocre should have been leading by now. Also, probably had a penalty waived away.

City literally have the best defender on the planet. Like... literally! What a player. He's actually underrated. He's even better than most people think!

Just need him a decent partner at the back.

A sneaky bid for Chris Smalling could be in order.

Only just remembered this, did anything ever come of it?

That Phil Jones looks promising—perhaps we should have a punt?

Lukaku really slowing the pace.

 

[Ray78]

Lukaku is more of an upmarket Benteke.

 

[yerwot?]

the lack of movement off the ball by both sides is puzzling
