Where's Gareth Bale going? If they hadn't qualified I wonder if he'd have retired. Easy few months in the US maybe.

I think the Yanks will be tough. They have a good young squad who will have no fear. But it’s a group we shouldn’t drop a point from.

Worst performances seen from them in a long time of late but to be fair England not been great but all down to what happens on the day etc. More and more swayed to our Argentinian cousins these last few weeks.

Elements of sour grapes on my part and maybe just they managed it better.
However the build up to our game was a ball hair off suggesting we'd be absolute bastards beating them. The hour before the game spoke about Ukraine for the first 50 minutes including a weird Sky News segment in Kyiv speaking about the locals and Souness even wanted them to win.
There was far less focus on Ukraine today and nobody even mentioned their fucking locals in the twenty minutes post match I caught let alone stood in Kyiv to tell us how their hopes were now crushed.
I hope you absolutely fucking hammer Wales, beat USA and finish runners up to Iran - 2022 can't get anymore emotionally weirder surely 😀

For some reason I can't look at Gareth Bale without thinking to myself 'what a knob'.

Robert Green . 2010 that was. Complete catastrophic shyte. In 2014 we didn't get through the group but I'd still say 2010 was worse.

Edit: Soon as I say it - they score - Italy 1-0 OK Italy showed up - 2-0 at the half.
