WorrallOwl17 Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 how good is bale though. proper shame he's just not arsed one bit about club football anymore, surely he needs to leave madrid this summer and play the next season from the start of the season up to the world cup, no idea where though. wages are astronomical and can't see him lowering his demands to play for a mid table premiership club. no doubt he's still one of the best though, ability to win a game and carry a team is still remarkable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was up there with the very best a few years back, not sure he’s quite in that bracket any more but he’s still a quality player. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him rock up at Spurs again once he’s out of contract, he did ok for them last season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Spurs he was loving his football and playing incredible. He was unplayable at times with his blistering pace and had a real ability to finish. I think playing for Wales gives him that fire in the belly back which he's not got at Madrid. Did ok for Spurs last season I think? Or showed glimpses anyway. Also, that Macdeonia goal, as good as it was, I'd be fuming at their No.8 (Jorginho?) basically stopping to call for handball. Reyt annoys me that.

Reyt annoys me that. oh i'm not sure it killed it for him, if you think about all the honours he's won there. A couple of league titles, numerous champions leagues, spanish cups, financially set him for life, and regarded as one of the best on the planet. But you're right that he doesn't seem to enjoy it there. The Wales, Golf, Madrid thing was an absolute belter though, genuinely not bothered one bit is he. Wouldn't be shocked to see Man U go there, or PSG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing one of the more interesting teams isn’t going to improve it. It's humiliating for the Italians now, but come December when other nationalities have to leave their families and go and play in a corrupt tournament in stadiums built on the deaths of migrant workers, it won't seem like that much of big deal. This WC will be a complete anomaly, loads of decent players will find a way not to go. I've said before, I reckon a rank outsider will get to a least the semi finals if not a win it, due to lack of commitment and focus from the usual suspects. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanharper Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Canada qualify for their second ever World Cup, and their first for 36 years, and their coach is saying they're a "legit football country" and they can be a "football powerhouse". I had to check that it wasn't the old Donny owner getting giddy again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fudge27 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Anyone using the word legit instantly undermines their argument. Which in this case was a Croc of poo anyway. But congrats to Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridportOwl Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 This is incredible. My dad helps run a community Welsh language pub in Wrexham and this guy is playing there in a couple of weeks. I just love the images, the crowd all singing with such passion and love. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edinburghowl Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Not sure when we will get to play Ukraine. Feel for them and I just hope we can end up playing the fixture and don’t go through by default. Scotland 2-0 up in Vienna currently in the friendly and we beat them home and away in qualifying. 7 wins and 1 draw in our last 8 matches. ‘Scotland get battered everywhere they go’ ringing round the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 No Egypt. Knocked out on pens by Senegal again. Salah skied a pen after having a lazer lightshow flashed in his eyes before kicking. Reckon he might try and rip Sadio Mane's head off when they get back to Liverpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a few of the Egyptian players got the laser treatment. If FIFA have anything about them, then surely this match must be replayed.
