Pretty rough going from a first world country with high morals, perfect pitches, top of the line infrastructure hosting to this.
France will ship so long as Deschamps is smart enough to play future multi-Ballon d'Or
winner Rayan Cherki at least 30 min per match.
and ty Slugant for making the thread, much appreciated.

I'd settle for Barcola instead of washed at 27 Bappé
Portugal has the best midfield in the world for club or country, so they can ship it
Ecuador has Pacho so they might not concede a goal for 4 weeks
Spain will flame out, if they can't do **** with Luis Enrique then gg
Is there any gambler not on Mexico tonight? Seems like absolutely everybody is. Also all the super boosts/epic boosts/freebies etc seem to be on Mexico in some way. If they don't win the bookies are cleaning the world out.
Will the scorching heat make depth even more important than usual and does that mean France easily takes it with their 10 elite attackers plus quite (energy) conservative style, or will no proper ball be played whatsoever, allowing set piece terrorists a chance?
Either way, I don't expect much good to happen during Netherlands - Sweden, starting at noon in Texas at 30+ degrees
No problem at all 👍

I remember South Africa sometimes had a few good players in the past but I just checked their squad and their best man is probably Lyle Foster from Burnley...
Mexico have had better squads as well but cant see them do anything else but win really
Today I feel African

Some teams will get 2 matches in stadiums with AC. Spain is among those with the coolest temps for their 3 group matches and France is on the other end of the spectrum with blistering temps. Could be a big factor. But yah, a good manager will be heavily monitoring minutes.
It's happening!
LET'S MEHICO

They make us watch every player in the lineup have a little dance or wave at the camera and then show how they'll line up for exactly one second

yeah, same
lets see, think qatar lost all their games in 2022 ..... couldn't tell you who they played though. iirc their first game was only 2-0 or something and second was like a 6-0 blowout
and russia had that team in 2018 that was juiced out on peds, scored a lot of goals, think they won their opener bigly. lets go with denis cheryshev
