I'm only "fairly sure". England might pull out if they are at war with Russia. So they might need somebody to make up the numbers. Stranger things have happened.

ThistleWhistle Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Bought the Panini album for my nephew and the French squad looks the best on empty numbered rectangles. I have three of the same Serbian fella out of 14 packs so already pissed off with it but nephew's well excited. Might tell him it'll be cancelled anyway because we're all about to die of nuclear Armageddon so we're unlikely to complete the set in the hope it saves me having to add further to my collection of Victor Kolarovs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tell him that the aim of the game is to collect 10 Kolarovs, then you stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Black Bra Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Was looking forward to the World Cup, thought it looked fairly open this year. Hopefully doesn’t all go tits up due to Syria. More than anything I would like to see England lose to Costa Rica and get knocked out in the group stage. If they get through the group stage it would make me ecstatically happy to see them get knocked out by Iceland again. I’m not a typical, bitter ABE merchant, but the arrogance and ignorance of the English media last time they played Iceland was a disgrace.

BraveheartGordon Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 France have an unbelievable array of talent from Varane in defence, Pogba, Kante and Matuidi in midfield and a frightening array of ability from Ousmane Dembele, Coman, Martial, Griezemenn and Mbappe amongst others. If they click they’ll be unstoppable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Kolarov Ratio remains consistent I'll get 197 more of him at cost of 40 quid. Fucker could at least smile instead of looking at me like I'd wiped my arse on his dog. Hopefully by the Euros my nephew will be getting sticky fingers by other means and have grown out of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even mucked up on booking a cruise, wish I had done it for the second 2 weeks of June so I would miss half of it....never mind. I reckon West Germany or Spain. Can’t see anyone beating England to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranked 7th and a genuine world class goalscorer) but I’d love to see Argentina and particularly Messi lift it 👍🏼 I agree with Messi but canny see it.

COLT NY Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 It's possibly more wide open than I've ever known it to be... Lots of teams have a decent chance. I'd say Germany's probably the most likely.... For a long shot bet, I think Uruguay, Colombia and Peru all have an outside chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
