So?

It was sarcastic. Great matches between ok teams are still great.

 

[TheBigIguana]

To be fair, I don't think there are enough decent sides in the Americas to make anything more than an 8-team tournament a chore.

The issues in football over here aren’t about skill in my opinion but that’s another topic that I can rage about later when the US loses.

Yeah, for about 8 teams as @Drico said. The rest are garbage.

 

[Big Sams Undies]

The tail end of Belgiums “golden generation” done and dusted. Looking forward to them heading the same way as the Dutch over the next few tournaments.

There is more skill than is shown but a lot of the attitude toward the game is about wrecking it for the other team.

Maybe it's not shown because it's not there.

I mean Argentina and Brazil do it too so…

Yeah, weren't those the same technically inept teams people were blasting last time out?

 

[Bohemian Toffee]

Watching Martinez walk into the stadium, looks like he can't believe his luck.

Neither can I.

 

[Goat]

Come on Slovenia.

 

[BainesontoastNEW]

Martinez singing along!

 

[GoldenToffee]

Bobby singing the Portuguese national anthem. He's come a long way from Chester City FC.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Eee. Martinez belting out the national anthem, there. Didn’t see him singing Grand Old Team, the bad meff.

Should be ashamed of yourself @davek

 

[Drico]

Look at that charlatan Martinez trying to ingratiate himself with the locals by singing the Portuguese national anthem.

A master at work.
