Football World Cup 2014

Also, just need Belgium to win now for my triple to come in, and Germany for my quad.... may cash out the quad if Germany start winning tbh.

 

[Hawkwind]

Pretty much my thoughts as well. Welbeck is worth a mention - he was great in the first half when the game was more open. I must admit I thought he was poor in the friendlies but he showed some real quality last night, particularly in winning the ball back and starting breaks.

If we line up like that again do you think Barkley should start ahead of Rooney down the left? Or would that leave us even more exposed? I think he's better at taking the ball forward and beating a man, but won't make the same intelligent runs into the box or have the same range of passing as Wayne.

With Rooney your always going to get that killer pass, not sure Barkley can do the same. So difficult decision. He is great at running at players and his movement is better. I probably would play him ahead of Rooney as you need someone there that will track back and defend. Rooney did not do that enough and we simply do not have room for any luxury players.

 

[Billargh]

Rooney often does back track a lot though, the conditions in Manaus probably played a part.

Nigeria Iran: laying Nigeria for £635 @ 1.97
Germany Portugal: laying the draw for £203 @ 3.7
Ghana USA: laying Ghana for £397 @ 2.52
Belgium Algeria: laying Belgium for £847 @ 1.48

I am not just "backing the favourite". That is a rapid road to ruin.

Total P&L so far on settled bets: £1,245.36

 

[Chilly]

Brazil v Mexico: backing Brazil for £749 @ 1.34
Russia v South Korea: no bets, our trading signals do not give a clear message so staying away.

I thought Hart was an alright guy..

 

[miri]

Dunno man, massively high pressure situation, a lot of adrenaline etc. A lot of people get like that, I know when I'm stressed I tend to snap at people, doesn't excuse it as poor form but it's understandable imo.

Nothing wrong with that.

 

[old.user4556]

Not sure if Portugal are poor, or the Germans are superb.

They look really dangerous, no mistakes (so far).

Chilly..you have a gambling problem and dont say you haven't because it will be denial

 

[old.user4556]

Chilly has a raking-it-in problem, and don't you deny it.

 

[megadave]

Whys it so enjoyable watching Portugal fail?

 

[Olgaline]

It's only a problem if your losing money

 

[Embattle]

This WC showing early on the stupidity of modern footballers.

 

[ileks]

If Portugal can sort their decision making in the final third out they could get a goal or two here.

 

[ileks]

OK never mind.

 

[Lethul]

Pepe is such a fucking retard

 

[Olgaline]

Portugal are a decent side, they're just grossly overrated.

 

[Embattle]

Portugal are a decent side, they're just grossly overrated.

and everyone knows why that happens.

 

[caLLous]

and everyone knows why that happens.

Because of Nani, amirite?

 

[megadave]

Nah nani is pretty decent, nobody over rates him any more

 

[Shagrat]

I can't see Portugal getting out of the group after this result. Germany haven't given them so much as a sniff of a chance rwally

 

[CorNokZ]

"So we just spent years qualifying for this thing, and almost didn't make it? Let me just ruin this for everyone in my nation and let everyone down!"

What a complete asshat Pepe! Sweden should have gone through, they'd have been much more enjoyable to watch

 

[Calaen]

Germany are just so efficient. And their squad is just so physical.

Feel sorry for Cristiano though!

 

[CorNokZ]

Nani has been fucking dog shit

 

[Calaen]

Contraeo finished as well

 

[megadave]

Has anyone ever won golden boot twice in a row?

 

[ileks]

Does anyone find the "Brasil, Brasiiiiil" jingle ITV play before and after adverts really irritating?

 

[old.user4556]

Yes, it's like a bad holiday advert.
