  • Anybody got any paint I can watch dry?
  • Australia only scored 2 penalties
    Other than that havent really looked much like scoring

    Peru, 0 goals and like Australia havent really looked like scoring.

    Austalia 0-0 Peru IMO tomorrow

    Oh Paulie...............
  • It surprises me as you'd think that Denmark would want to avoid Croatia

    Avoid Croatia and run straight into Argentina? I think they probably figure it's neither here or there as long as they're through!
  • Has got to be the leading contender for worst game of the tournament - not a single thing of any note or significance has happened in nearly 75 minutes of football. Not even one slight moment of skill or decent move. Just nothing.

    France have previous for their final group games... 0-0 against Ecuador 2014, 0-0 against Switzerland 2016.

    You must have missed Eriksen's back heel -
    edge of the seat stuff.

    Dont see Argentina beating Nigeria though - Guess its the risk yet also if Argentina do come second then: France v Argentina will be yet another mouth watering second round game
  • Denmark have no intention of winning this group and taking the risk of facing Argentina. France almost seem to be willing them on to have a go as well so they don't seem to fancy it either.
  • First 0-0 it is then.

  • Unfortunately, you're gonna get games like that in the final group games. I have a bad feeling England Vs Belgium will be similar

    ITV pundits panicing about nobody watching if there is a shed load of changes for belgium/england lol

    "is that game a warning for england making too many changes? ....oh yes definately" ....What? France coming through the game with no injuries or cards and minimal effort required. Yeah massive warning.
  • England group winners half:
    Uruguay
    Portugal
    France

    England group runners up half:
    Russia
    Spain
    Denmark

    It was Spain who won their group, not Portugal mate.

    Yeah he’s saying what sides teams are on of the knockout draw based on whether England win their group or not

    Yeah so they're in the same half of the draw as the runners up of Group G.

  • Uruguay Portugal and France with potentially Argentina, Brazil and Germany joining them.

    That is a stacked half of the draw. I know people go on about just trying to win games and facing whoever you're drawn against but right now, losing to Belgium looks like the better option.
  • Not to mention if Japan beat Poland our route to the final if we win the group could be Columbia, then Brazil, then France in semis.... not much of a reward for winning the group is it!?

    Alternatively it could be Japan, Mexico, Spain if we come second in the group.

    I know which route looks better to me.

  • Keep the defence and keeper and rotate the rest. If we get beaten then we will have an ‘easier’ route but the back 3 will learn and put right any wrongs. If we win, confidence and competition for places will be high and we have a ‘can beat anyone’ attitude. We are in a good place.

    True it's obviously the harder side of the draw but 3 of those sides will be out before we can even face them. And we thought we had it easy by getting Iceland in the Euro's and then look what happened.
  • Argies drop Aguero and Caballero. Still no room for Dybala in the starting 11. Think the wrong players have taken the fall for the last performance there...

    Really looking forward to this game though - Nigeria ain't great but Argentina are in a real mess.

    Messi ringing the changes.
  • Gudmundsson back in the Iceland lineup.
  • Can't believe Aguero has been dropped!
  • Come on Nigeria
