Made a crappy phPBB forum once ... once.
I seem to remember that Euro final Italy changed their style and formation and Southgate being a plan A and no plan B couldn’t cope.

That’s being English and and England fan.

In football as in war and love, only a frenchman can stop a frenchman (i mean in war WE are the one surrendering...). If we do not win in Qatar it will be because we play like shit in semi or final.
England will loose on saturday, bald beer-gutted 20 something british dudes will feel real mad and start fights against one another before tumbling down due to their own momentum, and then they will to wait 4 years before restarting their delusion.

Portugal has the best line up in decades but our beyong shitty coach will fuck up everything as usual.

If they get their shit together for once i can see them reaching the semi finals minimum.

England is playing very well for the first time in ages.

France is always a candidate and Mbappe is just a beast, truly hate the fuckers but they are damn good unfortunally

Argentina is not playing anything special so a strong team will probably eliminate them.

Brasil is a bit above Portugal, in the sense that if they get their shit together they will go very far in the tournment.

both croatia and brazil havent been playing very well.

Brazil a bit better but still...nothing groundbreaking.

Dont discount the asian teams they are relentless
Brazil first two games played really well, in third they show up with B team.

Croatia is still better than Japan, something like 60-40 here, so i have hope here for upset.

As for Brazil - Korea, if Brazil would loose then it would be gigantic surprise.

Im not discounting asian teams, i think Japan have serious chances and football saw games where huge favorities just loses so Korea could put a fight. But still, these games are nowhere near to be even.

Not so surprise. Brazil have a huge ego they need to address. Never underestimate your opponent. If they keep that in mind.
IT. WOULD. BE. BIG. SURPRISE. LOOKING. AT. DISPARITY. IN. SKILLS. BETWEEN. THESE. TWO. TEAMS.

Are you guys americans watching only world cup, so once per 4 years? It just looks like it.

I'm a brazillian. And I remember the 7x1. DISPARITY SKILLS.
And that was huge suprise and upset as you remember, because before game Germany - Brazil seemed as even teams. But cmon its not the same with Korea - Brazil. Thats what im talking about. Im not saying we cant see Brazil losing today.

The only team that afraid Brazil before the 7x1 was Argentina and France. I don't talk like Korea was galaxies behind of Germany.

Germany are out. Korea are in. Most of the time Brazil lost the game because the opponent make their homework.

As brazilians ourselves, we know about brazilian skill levels. Most of them are real star playing, but they also are aways so full of themselves. Also Brazil weakness is that they don't have body play(you can hurt them easly) and that they are weak against prolonged plays(they usually force too much at the start, so they got tired faster later). If Korea play huge defense at the start they could win against Brazil, they don't need to play aggressive.
