Detournement Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 44 minutes ago, Bully Wee Villa said: Delighted that Villa were one of only two clubs not to ban their players from travelling and that they could now end up going to prison AND having to isolate when they eventually get back to the UK. Surely somebody in Argentina could have taken ten minutes to check the rules? The rules were agreed amongst all the South American nations that all players would be excused from quarantining. Brazil appear to have spat the dummy because Argentina had three English based players and they don't have any. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

senorsoupe Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 I am pleased with 1-1 away to the United States. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Not in the slightest bit surprised by the US ranking. Think they'll be amongst the favourites in Qatar. I've been watching a lot of the MLS and its gone from a well paid retirement home for aging Europeans to one of the most skilful, entertaining leagues there is in a very short space of time. Much better to watch than the EPL or La Liga imo. A quick check on the interweb showed US born players account for about half of those playing. Belgium still being 1 and Brazil still being 2 however, show the world rankings to be seriously flawed to say the least.Another cracking result from the tournament favourites last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I should maybe have said dark horses, not one of the favourites. Not great, but for them, it's not about what they do in qualifying. Three teams qualify directly. They will get there. Incidentally, have you been for a drink with marshmallo? A cracking, fun filled night for all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Non European teams are a bit shite these days. Since 2006 there’s been four European winners in a row and just one non European finalist out of eight.In 2018 all four semi finalists were European, it’s hard to see it being any different in Qatar. The South American teams seem to be going backwards at quite a rate and teams from other continents are still miles off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argentina have undoubtedly improved under Batistuta and no team at the Euros matched their World Cup form. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
