5 OUTTA 5 OUT BEFORE THE SEMIS! 8/8 if you count the Concacaf — Panamá didn't have jack shit to do in a World Cup. Well, neither did Poland, for that matter... But I digress! FUCK 'EM ALL! AND FUCK YOU, SYMBOLS!

i started to write a whole thing about economics, colonial immigration to the metropolis, luck, and managers...

but maybe it’s just that these things come in cycles?

if i recall my history, 1974 was very european-heavy also

whoa! looks like soup nazi is a really sore loser lmfao

I would say guilty as charged, but more than that I'm reacting to those five South American countries mocking the fuck out of my team. Not that I love my team "despite everything" — Vidal, for instance, is clearly a total DOUCHE and if he weren't so important to the squad...

deep breaths now... deep breaths...

I think you mean "Serenity Now"...

sure why not ha ha

whatever works!

Iit's undeniably Euro-heavy in terms of the teams left but it could be argued this has been an even worse WC for the real European big-hitters - France being probably the only team left with any real international pedigree. Meanwhile if South American football's in trouble, African football seems to have well and truly collapsed. Remember all those hopes we had for Nigeria, Cameroon, South Africa. Not even on the radar anymore. Asia too has at best stood still.

I'll share you the latest news from Belgium :)

This was the review of the Belgian players by magazine called Sportwereld (= sport world)












Neymar in the little fountain called Manneken Pis (little guy peeing)
One of my foreign colleagues once visited Brussels and next day he came to me completely excited saying "Jan! Jan! I saw Mexican Pee" :D Or that's what I understood of him, but it's not

what does saapjen mean?

it's slang for little sheep. It's derived from a conversation between two comedians, but it's in Flemmish so don't ask ;)





Last one:






verlosser = savior

Pickford, Walker, Stones, Maguire, Trippier, Alli, Henderson, Lingard, Young, Sterling, Kane.

Unchanged from Colombia game. Just hoping Sterling and Alli repay Southgate's belief in them.

these motherfuckers are having a sleepy conversation instead of calling and analyzing the fucking game
