The ONLY World Cup thread (merged)

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Another var success story - the Columbian centre back that plays for the scum had a penalty awarded against him which would have resulted in a certain red, but having checked it again on var it was discovered that he got a touch on the ball first so the penalty decision was cancelled 8)
It doesn't disguise the fact that his positioning for it was woeful and I think that he is a very average player

Harsh. I would take Davinson Sánchez in heartbeat.

So is it still in England's interests to come second in their group and face Colombia in the next round and either Sweden/Switzerland in the quarter finals potentially or top their group and play Japan in the next round and then almost certainly be up against Brazil in the quarter finals? :rubchin:

It doesn't matter. Every game at this stage is tough, whether it's Brazil or Japan.

The righteous celebrations throughout the UK at Germany's demise reminds me of us and the vermin fans. Completely dogshit themselves and incapable of winning anything, all their football joy comes at the expense of Arsenal misfortune.

Kane and the other tottnum players in the team, used to the scum mindset, probably feel getting out of the group is the same as winning the WC.
:roll: :lol:

Have a word with yourself ffs :lol:

This coming from a guy who's not watched one whole match, people can laugh at what they like and don't need your approval that's for sure.

I actually like football supporters sense of humour and most on here can laugh at others as well as themselves so you've seriously got issues me thinks :| :lol:

Clive Tyldesley just broke Manc hearts there on the commentary by stating that the Belgian haircut is staying at manure. That takes the fear factor out of MF's big announcement for his future on Sunday, phew :D
