WC thread truly is an incredible lurk. I've posted maybe 3 times over both the WC threads so far...

 

[Broder Salsa]

Is Fred aware of the offsides rule?

I think he is, but sadly also aware that he got the speed of a stoned turtle.

 

[Wilbur]

Ooh fuck.

Would love Mexico to win this.

 

[L1NETT]

Pearce reading out tweets

Football commentary is dead

God

 

[Gareth Bale]

Good effort that

 

[arkon]

I think the heat is getting to Pearce. Send him home.

 

[Marc]

Bloody hell. Lawro AND Pearce. And then the camera cuts to someone making a heart with their hands. Horrid.

I thought Lawro was the worst thing to happen to Football commentary, then I heard Phil Neville.

Now I am a lot more tolerant of Lawro.



Mexico aren't clicking at all, can't help not getting a single foul.

 

[Meier]

I am consistently impressed by how aggressive Oscar has become in defense. Really fantastic player.

Good effort that

Goal if Cesar doesn't get a hand on it. Great hit.. I'm a big fan of Herrera's. He'll be one who makes a big money move from Porto in a year or two IMO.

Arsene's commentary is awesome.

 

[sneaky77]

that was a clear corner

 

[L1NETT]

Gave me a chuckle

Lawrenson, as always, sounding like he'd rather be at home feeding millet to his pigeons

@RealBobMortimer

Arsene's commentary is awesome.

Aye I bet he is an interesting old fart

 

[Broder Salsa]

I am consistently impressed by how aggressive Oscar has become in defense. Really fantastic player.

He has shown that side quite a few times at Chelsea too tbh. I remember him running up counter attacks and stopping them, better than many of the actual more defensive minded players. The last few months he has been painful to watch though, saving himself for this fucking world cup.

 

[Slizz]

Good service from Neymar, good save from Ochoa.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

I think he is, but sadly also aware that he got the speed of a stoned turtle.

At least Inzaghi had the speed and killer instinct to justify living in offsideland.

 

[Gareth Bale]

What are they shouting at the goal kick?

Portuguese version of "you shit bastard aaaahhhh"?

 

[arkon]

Neymar is like the anti-Rooney. Totally different player in a Brazil shirt.

 

[Marc]

Great save that.

 

[Wilbur]

What a save

 

[GQman2121]

Neymar is having a hell of a tourney already. This is a good match thus far. Flying by.

Yeah, that was mostly what I was referencing. He made a ton of key tackles for you all this year.

 

[Kikarian]

Top save.

You've never watched Mexico play a home game? Thats par for the course PUUTTTTOOO

 

[K1LLER7]

Great save

 

[Wilbur]

Pearce still confused :lol :lol :lol

 

[FootballFan]

33 goals in 50 games for Brazil. Massssive.

 

[Bumhead]

Days later and Pearce is STILL absolutely baffled.

 

[Marc]

Fuck me, how has he still not grasped the goal line technology.

Just shut up about it if you don't know what you are talking about.

 

[L1NETT]

Still baffled anyone is paying that much money for such a suspect defender

Cwwwwazy

 

[Broder Salsa]

Fuck me, how has he still not grasped the goal line technology.

Just shut up about it if you don't know what you are talking about.

would you trust a computer?

 

[FortuneFaded]

Just shut up about it if you don't know what you are talking about.

The internet would come crashing down if this law came into effect.

 

[operon]

Loving this game so far

 

[Croyles]

would you trust a computer?

More than a Pearce

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

What's the DEAL with goal line technology? Seinfeld.jpg

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Well I've read the singularity is near, and I'm pretty sure we are not far away from computers becoming self aware. When that happens I bet you they will be biased and do what they want. I wonder what country a computer would want to win the world cup, probably Switzerland.

 

[Lightning]

This Brazil team looks average offensively imo. Oscar is good, Neymar is okay but barring referee help I still struggle to see the quality here to win the world cup.

 

[K1LLER7]

Paulinho having another bad game.

 

[Slizz]

It's all downhill now after that Mexico flop.

 

[Yurt]

Neymar is having a hell of a tourney already. This is a good match thus far. Flying by.

Yup

 

[Marc]

would you trust a computer?

It said No Goal, then Goal... it doesn't know which one it should be! How can something with no conception of the emotion of football make such vital decisions and get it so wrong!

 

[dc89]

Paulinho having another bad game.

I don't know why he's even playing.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Scolari's going to sub in Hernanes for Paulinho again and act like Fernandinho doesn't exist.

 

[Meier]

Given the fact the ref has called about two fouls, there can't be more than a minute of added time.

Paulinho having another bad game.

There's no way he offers more than Fernandinho in any facet of the game.

 

[Wilbur]

Based Guardado

 

[Broder Salsa]

12 fouls.

There was lots in the beginning of the match, just a strange lack of cards.

 

[Marc]

I don't know why he's even playing.

Brazilians love him. They think he is going to be the next socrates or something.



Lawro and Pearce discussing twitter.

 

[Showaddy]

I don't know why he's even playing.

Got credit in the bank I suppose, Scolari hoping he'll find his Confederations Cup form.

 

[Blablurn]

pulga. that could be us.

 

[Herr K]

Someone make a dolan comic with "everything was foul" please

 

[bjaelke]

some save!
