Winged read a book about the Hillsborough disaster 2 weeks ago, so now he's a die hard liverpool fan this week, or something. I can't wait for the EPL season so I can watch Man City piss in ur faces.

Man City rejects your fandom on account of the trogrunner. Lease a Benz and buy a Yaya shirt or gtfo...

Ah, I see.....you're pretending to be a lifer. In that case, knock out a few teeth, get an absurd MCFC tattoo, and cut your bathing rituals to twice a week, max.

Just in case y'all missed Milo's edit

Edit: Welp, he went from "confirmed" to now "rumored" team.


That's an offensive line-up that's really strong on the wings but meh in the spine. Witsel is really the only non-defender who will put in the hard work work

I'll wait until I see an actual starting lineup before adjusting my prediction. INSIDE SOURCES.

My predictions will obviously adjust based on changes to the starting lineup, but it seems that Belgium may employ the "playing Possum" tactic themselves if they go with that strating lineup. Keep us feeling like we have a chance until they sub on Lukaku to shatter or dreams in the second half, which is a tactic they've used in this World Cup already with Felliani.

Considering what we've faced, Ginger Balls and a pair of afro's shouldn't be scaring this team

De Bruyne is what Stuart holden could have been. RIP

Meanwhile, Swiss had the best chance of a scoreless first half with Argentina

that'd be a great upset

I agree, but it's still a potent lineup. Ginger Balls can send some pretty deadly long balls into the box, and Fellaini is obviously an aerial mismatch.

That front 3 really scare me, but the rest is sort of meh. I was really hoping that Lukaku would start, because he's been god-awful this tournament. The game will be won or lost based on how we defend against Mertens and Hazard.

I don't think Swiss over Argentina would be an upset at this point, they are pretty clearly one guy, who's been totally shut down by double coverage so far.

Not a bad call. Was interesting(frustrating?) seeing Coyle convert him into a more defensive midfielder. Did well in that spot, too.

Would have suited this diamond better than our current wide players. Better centrally, but did well at Houston when DeRo was at the top and he played wide.

Mueller is basically a forward for them right now, but they weren't all that scary considering the game and conditions.

Di Maria is a true master at shooting into the feet and shins of defenders. How real Madrid would ever score goals without Ronaldo is beyond me, considering their other option up front is Benzema

Belgium haven't looked scary either though, so just going individually Germany has a better midfield other than at LW

Not when you've got a center back with free safety feet

Highly paid real Madrid winger cannot use other foot for simple task of whacking the ball across goal

This kind of sums up Argentina, they're all pretty good at movement and getting chances, but once they get there it's open season. Lavezzi is the worst at this, if he was twice as good at finishing as he is now he'd be better than Messi but whenever he's in the 18 yard box he lays a giant egg
