⚽ Football | World Cup 2022

Oh Yeah. Forgot about that guy: Fabio Capello: Useless. He later got fired from Chinese club Jiangsu Suning.
Now that has got to be hard to do!

Easy, bredda. World cup semi final. Euro final. We are doing the best I’ve seen in a long time.

It means what it says.

So many England haters here. It’s hard to be the best. Even when we lose we win. We just are the best. Simple as that :slight_smile:

What group are your boys in again?

And also piss off :rofl:

And it runs deeper than the footy. Our food, our transport, our prices, our cities, our weather, our politics. They all get pissed on at Forumosa.com.

Haters gonna hate.

Yeah. I’m with ya.
We’re always singled out it seems. Targets for the jealous masses.

How can we help it if we are the best?
The sun never sets on the British Empire!
Honestly, even if we get kicked our in the first round I’d feel we are the best!

:rofl:

Haha, l thought Scolari managed England before.

It was Capello.

He almost did, though:

Oh, yeah. I remember that now. Near miss.
With the massive investment in footy back in England I don’t think they can use a Foreigner now.

Anyway, I didn’t want this thread to be all about England (even though we are the best…:-))

What about Japan and South Korea? Any fans out there?

I think England’s current manager is outstanding. Going through a weak patch, for sure. It happened to the best of them. No need for change.

I’m including myself in that because I know that even if we had lost ten in a row, I’d still be thinking we have a chance.

It’s genetic trait built into all England fans.
E.g. even if we didn’t qualify, we would still walk around thinking we would have won the entire championship. Most likely we would think a FIFA conspiracy prevented us from taking the trophy that is basically always ours!

I don’t give a fuck about a game where little girls with Alice bands fall all over the floor crying. I most certainly don’t give a tiny fuck about South African football.
How are you lot doing in the rugby rankings? :laughing:

No. You are perpetual underachievers at football. You have the best league in the world. So tell me. When did England even reach a semi-final in a major tournament? And don’t get all teary about the World Cup you won in 300BC. England are terrible at the big events, despite their prodigious talent.

Cameroon.
