I do wonder why they didn't give cmc a red scarf

[dim kettle]

Oversight.

[dim ledge]

Pink is fine

[rustic mountain]

But not as good

But oh well

[dim ledge]

Red paisley would be nice but pink gives it a more vintage look

also gayer

[rustic mountain]

I don't think the color changing would significantly change just how gae the photo is lmao

[dim ledge]

Oh honey

If only you knew

[rustic mountain]

Okay

I finally need to ask

Why should I care about her

[rustic mountain]

She's probably potentially the best player the wnba has had in a long time

She isn't yet

But she has the talent and skill to

[short flame]

What about Sabrina? I’m curious to know if she’s good because it’s the only name I know since I don’t follow the sport

[hasty basin]

She's good too

[short flame]

I know her because of the steph curry duel

[hasty basin]

Yeah

[short flame]

That was the last time I watched anything basketball related

LMFAO

EEWWWWWWW

[celest zephyr]

What a surprise fanatics is absolute fucking garbage

Their design team is five raccoons banging garbage cans

[short flame]

What’s the weird thing surrounding the logos?

[rustic ore]

So she’s basically like a way less talented, female version of Steph Curry who for whatever reason came into the draft with damn near LeBron levels of hype. I mean she did leave college as the all time leading scorer (between both men and women) but it just seems like there’s a coordinated media campaign to make her one of the global faces of sports period rn

[robust grotto]

Because the media says we have to!!!

Not even being facetious either

Figures

Came out weird lol

But basically Pickard and the Oil close to a 2 year deal

So Soup is definitely gone, gonna be Stu as the starter and Picks as the backup

Pretty good for a dude who can sit cold for 40 games and then be able to steal a game against a playoff team. Hopefully just 1 or 2 mil

Picks for 2 years at 1m aav, 3.5 for our goalie tandem isn't too bad considering that they nearly got us a cup this last time around

[weak gull]

I shouldve sent him some emojis when Michigan beat Ohio state again then😹

[celest zephyr]

proof that at this point paying big bucks for a top tier goalie is kinda dead

[smoky fable]

Amen

[celest zephyr]

no great goalie has won since vasi

with save percentage variance tbh i don't see much value in paying a top 5 goalie 8+ mill a year

[short flame]

Bob the bro

[celest zephyr]

bobrovsky is good but idk i wouldn't call him top 5

at this point

kinda a weird case there since dude was overpaid for years

[short flame]

Who you got ahead of him??

[celest zephyr]

its tough tbh

didn't realize shesterkin had a worse year

he's probably 5th then behind helle varlamov demko and swayman

though purely by this year maybe daccord is better

[short flame]

I agree with everyone else but I don’t know who this is. Where does he play?

[celest zephyr]

varlamov barely played also tbf but idk at least dude has been a starter before

seattle

i've heard of him but never knew he was this good

yeah he was mid last season then good ahl stint

[short flame]

Fair enough I don’t know much about keepers. It’s not like we have one to show in the team

[celest zephyr]

goalies are a cesspool

levi is 22 lol

maybe he is ass but most goalies really hit their stride when they are 25-27

levi is still a good 3-5 years from that

a few years in the ahl and dude might be at least servicable

[hasty basin]

https://fixupx.com/WhoScored/status/1806682758577603017

[rustic mountain]

Proof of this is that Stu still has room to grow and he helped us get to a cup final. Was a bit shaky at times but dude took major strides and is literally in year 2 and this was after he was forced to start because Jack Campbell is garbage

I am glad he did well, I believe in the dude

[short flame]

Yeah I’m not criticizing him of course, I’m just saying I’m not going to pretend he’s a top goalie when he hasn’t played enough to show it

[short flame]

Some of these are fully grown team of the tournament not only u23. Mika and mamar specially

[hasty basin]

Yep

Musiala is so special too man

Rb being 6.23 rated

[desert palm]

@honest latch @robust grotto @glossy aurora @hasty mesa @proper sable and also @fleet orbit https://fxtwitter.com/mlbtraderumors/status/1806798422298476831

Never thought that he would get another job after what happened to him

[short flame]

Yeah he’s also team of the tournament

[hasty basin]

Gonna watch Colombia today

Though I'm sleepy as heck

[short flame]

Thank you

[short flame]

We’ll get you up and running

[short flame]

How good has Nico Williams been in the tournament?

[hasty basin]

For me personally he's close to Spain's best player

So good at one on one take ons

Gotta be careful about him

[short flame]

Ok just curious because I really liked an Austrian player for the left mid

[hasty basin]

I thought I was rating Austria by putting them 2nd in the group on predictions

Somehow finished 1st in that group

Wild

These were mine for Copa, mostly boring but

Can't say I know too much overall

Also USA 1st

[short flame]

Don’t worry I had Bolivia second

[hasty basin]

No chance that's happening

Oh

USA might not even qualify

They face Uruguay

[honest umbra]

Why did u pick USA first?

Uruguay has been in insane form

[short flame]

You underestimated Paraguay, other than that I can agree with the picks

Not a bad prediction

[honest umbra]

Only team to beat Argentina aside from Saudi in the last 4-5 years

Convincingly too

[hasty basin]

Was meant to be my unexpected pick

[honest umbra]

Never trust America

[hasty basin]

Yeah I never will

After seeing them lose against Panama

Thing is I really like the team

[short flame]

They’re the team to beat

[honest umbra]

Yea they in the best form

5-0 win was crazy

[short flame]

If we’re out, I hope they can beat Argentina

[honest umbra]

They def have the best chance

Brazil not looking too hot

Is their second game today?

[hasty basin]

Expected

[robust grotto]

He’s a good guy. His son is very sick. He deserved a chance imo

[hasty basin]

Idk what Brazil is doing recently man

[honest umbra]

Oh Brazil plays Paraguay today

[short flame]

Rough game

[honest umbra]

Colombia and Costa Rica in 20 mins. How do u feel? @short flame

[short flame]

Hopefully we can go through today

[honest umbra]

Then what about Brazil vs Colombia?

[hasty basin]

Now i Realize I had Canada 2nd Mexico 1st US 1st

When did I get this NA bias

[honest umbra]

Canada one is fine

They have looked good

[hasty basin]

Thing is US losing to Colombia I just

Wrote it off as Colombia being good more than US being shit

[nimble onyx]

Bit of both

[hasty basin]

And of course Weah had to get sent off after 18 minutes

[nimble onyx]

I still cant believe we shit the bed against Panama

Knowing Bielsa he wont rotate the squad

[hasty basin]

And Panama should at the VERY least draw

With Bolivia

So

[nimble onyx]

but tbf if we cant beat Uruguay when the stakes are this high we never had a chance

[nimble onyx]

yea didnt think Bolivia would be this bad

so relying on them to get a result is not an option

[short flame]

I just want to be qualified when it comes

[short flame]

The media maybe?

[hasty basin]

Maybe

For US I know their full team

And I really liked it so that's probably why

Mexico recently haven't been as good

So idk about them

Guess I just didn't think the others could finish above them

Canada I liked them in the WC even though they got no points 😭 but also their friendly vs Netherlands I saw SOMETHING there

Also got thrashed 4-0

Idk what they're lacking

It might be the main man up top

I'll rate David for Ligue 1 but man idk

Larin is not it at all as well

[short flame]

Empty stadium

Disappointed

We should do better

[celest zephyr]

I wish I could say as a Canadian but I can’t lol

Haven’t watched a single copa match

[hasty basin]

Tbf neither games were bad from Canada

I think what Marsch is doing is

Vs weaker opponents he puts Davies in a way more attacking position

We'll see if it works

[rustic mountain]

We are North Americans, 2/3 of the countries here couldn't give a tinker's fig about soccer so it makes sense

[calm mulch]

proper competition for decades + culture of playing the sport

[smoky fable]

PEN

[calm mulch]

Every other team outside of NA kinda smells blood in the water when facing them

[smoky fable]

Ticket prices by COMNEBOL. Also desert heat in a workday played factors. Although there aren’t many Colombians here natively.

[calm mulch]

Best bet for Canada is to have as many international players as possible

and even that might not work, as a brazilian 99% of our players for the WC play in other leagues and that destroyed our national identity

from 5 world cups to tying with costa rica

[smoky fable]

Colombia 1-0

On a lucho penalty

Stupid challenge by the keeper

[calm mulch]

There is a real chance Canada doesn't qualify, Chile is weirdly good when it doesn't matter

[short flame]

I know but we usually fill stadiums

https://tenor.com/view/luis-diaz-griddy-gif-11950122445977601805

[calm mulch]

Current brazil is either going to win comfortably or get dogged by Colombia

never seen a team that allows so many mistakes to happen

[short flame]

We’re winning

[calm mulch]

Colombia ?

If you meant them, then i actually agree lol

[short flame]

Yeah Colombia

I think we can beat Brazil

Decent first half but we need more. We’re not comfortable enough, I’m scared when we’ll face one of the big teams

[smoky fable]

Lovely build up, top notch finish.

[robust grotto]

true, im not watching so i cant really comment anyway

This game determines our future. I can’t give them anything

[turbid axle]

BTW I don't like Vinicius, Real or Brazil.

I had to make that clear.

[turbid axle]

He was too damn good for stupid Arabian teams.

[short flame]

I do like the player, the goal was great, just the celebration was too arrogant to my liking

[turbid axle]

Keeper did his best.

[graceful reef]

[dim ledge]

I'm sure he did

[turbid axle]

Yeah it was his fault.

The keeper did his job and blocked the first shot.
He had to clear the damn ball.

[short flame]

Good save. Defender should have cleared. This game is going to be rough

[turbid axle]

It's not over.
I predict a semi comeback (perhaps just one goal) from Paraguay in the second half.

I could be wrong of course.

?????

[robust grotto]

tbf thats not horrible

[dim ledge]

Not horrible but why

They're in a win now mode still I'd argue even if the window is closing

[robust grotto]

my theory;

[dim ledge]

Why give up the higher pick

[robust grotto]

new gm, new scouting system there

rather have 2 prospects than 1 - its going to take a few years for these players to be ready anyway

[turbid axle]

Now there is a battle royale fight.

[short flame]

Paraguay are a defensive minded team, they may get a goal but they’ll be exposing themselves at the back

[turbid axle]

😆

[turbid axle]

Typical Copa America.

[dim ledge]

Easier explanation

Paraguay are shit and will lose this game because they're shit

Bing bong

[turbid axle]

Harsh.

[dim ledge]

Not incorrect!

[dim ledge]

You and I know both that the deeper the picks are for the NHL draft the worse

[robust grotto]

https://vxtwitter.com/reporterchris/status/1806867543501730228?s=46&t=0dPhD14zL5uzVVpeHRQMfQ

[dim ledge]

Granted this somewhat applies to every sport but especially in the NHL

[turbid axle]

They are still arguing.
The ref is walking around giving yellows.

And...

Vinni scored again.

What a game.

[graceful reef]

Out of nowhere the game became easy for Brazil

[dim ledge]

[turbid axle]

😆

[graceful reef]

[dim ledge]

Paraguay are a defensive minded team

[robust grotto]

For sure - I’m sure there’s some justification to move back

[turbid axle]

Alright point taken.

[dim ledge]

One thing you'll learn about me is that I am very rude but very right

[turbid axle]

Well that's great.
I tend to be like that.

[robust grotto]

Utah just moved up

[dim ledge]

Based. Don't be afraid of what others think

[turbid axle]

Peer pressure?
Piss off.

[short flame]

Another gift. These defenders are so silly. I need some red cards to save the game

[dim ledge]

Less peer pressure and more individuals who don't know what they're talking about being sad that you're better

This will make more sense as things go along

[dim ledge]

I mean...I guess?

Yeah this is fine. Avs are good enough

[turbid axle]

Meh.
I don't care about what they think either way.
If they think I'm better, or worse or whatever.

[robust grotto]

yeah i like it - they can always trade that 2nd next year for a player

[dim ledge]

Based

You're Persian btw right, yama? Or just live in Iran?

[turbid axle]

Oh dear...I had a long convo trying to explain the ethnic groups in Iran to an Australian just now...

Yes I'm Iranian and I speak Persian as my first language.
Doesn't make me a "Persian" (there is no such thing basically). My ethnicity is something else.

[dim ledge]

Wow, fascinating. Most I met who speak the language just accept the label

[turbid axle]

Diaspora I assume.

I have a tenancy to ramble about my country so stop me if I ever go on too much about it.

They just got the approval to ply their home games at el alto

[turbid axle]

That's cool too.

I was going to fanboy over Chilavert.
But now I'm going to honorably mention Falcao.

[short flame]

No Colombian. I just support Paraguay because I wanted to be pre qualified for the second round in first place

[turbid axle]

My favorite goalkeepers ever are Chilavert and Higuita.
I can't decide between the two.

I actually watched them play live when I was a kid.

As opposed to just youtube decades later.

[short flame]

My heart says higuita but chilavert is a legend as well

[turbid axle]

Rene was too crazy for his own good.

That's why we love him though.

[fluid moat]

I just turned on the game specifically to watch Douglas Luiz and he immediately gets kicked in the leg which resulted in a red card

[smoky fable]

Does Colombia and Brazil rest their players or do they both go for 1st place?

[turbid axle]

I think the latter.

Too much pride.

[smoky fable]

Oh yeah they would play the easier team in Panama too since I don’t think the US will win.

Uruguay would be difficult I’d reckon for second place

[short flame]

I wouldn’t take him any other way. He failed us because of it but the only reason he was this good was because he was crazy

[robust grotto]

@rustic mountain

[short flame]

We need first place to avoid Uruguay so early

[robust grotto]

edm trading into the first

[dim kettle]

Oilers going into the first round

[turbid axle]

Uruguay is scary man.
Bielsa alone is a threat even without a team.

[rustic mountain]

Wtf what are we doin???

[short flame]

I still feel like we can beat them but they’re the scariest rival. They have everything to win this copa

[thin tulip]

[rustic mountain]

Sam O'Reilly. Gonna have to see whomst he us

Is

Winger from the London Knights, same team we got Mr Bouchard from

[dim kettle]

Not really worth going into these guys now. All about when they come to the farm system in next few years

[short flame]

Congratulations

See you Tuesday

[rustic mountain]

Just want to see who he is, what he is about

For sure I agree

But just seeing whomst he is

[thin tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/look-stare-face-mean-bruh-gif-27645430

[rustic mountain]

We gave up either or first next year or the year after to get this one

We musta liked Sam's game

[robust grotto]

Yup, London knights are one the premier teams in Canadian major junior. The alumni list is probably as good as any

[rustic mountain]

O'Reilly seems intriguing. Two way winger, physical

[robust grotto]

Nice nice, it’ll take a few years to develop anyway

[rustic mountain]

I hope they work on his skating a bit. Says he is a bit slower

But cool

[robust grotto]

Exciting to trade like that

[rustic mountain]

Nice to see we were wanting to get involved

[robust grotto]

Yeah exactly

Rather than watch players that were on your board go

[rustic mountain]

Now on to the big matters

Sign Conner Brown and Mattias Janmark already Jeff

[robust grotto]

I’m happy we took a d man, that was my ask for today. Don’t care if it takes 4 years

[rustic mountain]

You think he will work for ya?

Skate better than Fox at least from what ya said

[robust grotto]

Yeah total opposite

[rustic mountain]

Where did ya take him at

Ah 30

Emery eh?

[robust grotto]

Not as skilled offensively and stats wise but does defensive things

It seems

So I’ve been told lmao

[rustic mountain]

Never know with these young dudes

[robust grotto]

I trust em

Not surprised American bred, going to ncaa next year. That’s been the Drury regime theme

[rustic mountain]

Lemme see here how many Americans were taken

Looks like 4

And none taken by Canadian teams lol

Weirdly both New York teams got Americans

[robust grotto]

yup thats right

[robust grotto]

LOL

[dim ledge]

Nu Yawk

Ya HERD

[robust grotto]

I’m happy

[honest umbra]

Me too

[dim ledge]

I'm angry >:(

[rustic mountain]

I'm Sab 😮

[dim ledge]

Fuck it I love being angry. I love being a hater

It gives me life

[lyric rune]

@burnt cedar I am betting on Switzerland Italy. Who is more likely to win tonight

[dense blade]

ofcourse Italy

[hasty basin]

It is close but I'd lean to Italy

[solid dagger]

DON'T JINX IT

This is arguably Switzerland's strongest team ever and they're looking good

[hasty basin]

:)

Spaghetti mafia forza

Oh Lord Indra

[tardy solstice]

[sweet smelt]

Recent chokers gonna win

[sweet smelt]

Yeah absolute peak shit show

[final plaza]

@dim ledge where you

[sweet smelt]

Basking in glory probably

[final plaza]

SA gonna choke even more

[sweet smelt]

I trust in India

[strange pelican]

SA needs to hit india's target in 16 over 4 overs u know

[final plaza]

Bapu 🧎‍♂️

[hasty basin]

El-EL SHARAAWY? @solid dagger

Fagioli?

Wtf is this lineup

[thorn hornet]

Jorginho clears ngl

[hasty basin]

DARMIAN?

• Calafiori is suspended

Idk anymore man

This is really

Yeah

This is one of the worst Italy sides I've seen

If not the worst

[thorn hornet]

Did you guys see Frankfurts Marlboro kit?

[hasty basin]

Idk about that man

Nike

[sweet tree]

https://tenor.com/view/twitter-duck-smoke-smoking-twitter-duck-gif-1365401141084093497

[short flame]

I thought smoking sponsors were banned

[dim ledge]

Fire

[thorn hornet]

Legal 👍

[short flame]

The kit is nice

[thorn hornet]

Frankfurt + Cigars= Every Balkan ever

[dull sedge]

i dont wanna jinx this by saying anything more, man but this game has been a bit of a bore ngl

fuck

[dim ledge]

Reminiscent of the old Marlboro F1 jackets. I dig

[strange pelican]

wtf was that runout

[final plaza]

This last ball was fuj

Fun*

[fluid moat]

The lineup would be fine if Cristante and El Shaarawy weren’t in it

But I don’t think it matters Switzerland are prob winning

[final plaza]

Dube playing good???

[solid dagger]

LETSGOOOOOO ITALY

[sweet smelt]

Kohli is in too much pressure

[solid dagger]

WE HYPED

[solid dagger]

Fagioli is great

Let Spalletti cook

idk about Cristante again but I trust the manager

[short flame]

Vamos

[dull sedge]

fuckin kohli is playing an ODI game in a t20

[sweet smelt]

Provided a base but man...

Yeah he can't get those shots

[robust grotto]

https://vxtwitter.com/pierrevlebrun/status/1807078166696976831?s=46&t=0dPhD14zL5uzVVpeHRQMfQ

[final plaza]

We need like too many boundaries now

[robust grotto]

WOAAAAAH

[sweet smelt]

50 but at what cost

[final plaza]

Why did they send Dube instead of Pandya

[robust grotto]

@dim ledge @dim kettle

^

[sweet smelt]

😭😭

[dim ledge]

What the hell?

[short flame]

For what?

[dim ledge]

What is happening?

[dim kettle]

Cap room. Trying to pay Stammer more

[sweet smelt]

That was bold decision

[dim ledge]

Honestly I think India still wins this

[robust grotto]

https://vxtwitter.com/puckreportnhl/status/1807078208530981140?s=46&t=0dPhD14zL5uzVVpeHRQMfQ

[robust grotto]

Agree

Kevin Hayes to PIT

[sweet smelt]

Kohli hit a six...

[final plaza]

Need at least 180

[sweet smelt]

They will probably hit 170

[dim ledge]

Just saying

For as good as our bowling is

[final plaza]

Anything below 180 would be incredibly hard

[dim ledge]

Our batting hasn't really been up to snuff

You guys will be fine

[final plaza]

Eh

[dim ledge]

I'm proud of us either way

Or happy for them rather

[final plaza]

It's true but they have potential

180 would make it possible for us even in case SA plays to its full potential

That's a score India would be able to defend

Have the ability to defend

[sweet smelt]

I am proud of Virat tho

[dim kettle]

I actually like JJ Moser. Offensive defensemen.

[sweet smelt]

Man really played his best under pressure

[final plaza]

Wow

No ball

[dull sedge]

Kohli playing like this in the final is a dream

KOHLIIIIII

[sweet smelt]

This is what we all dreamt about boys

It is coming true

[final plaza]

That was a wonderful six

Fuck

[dull sedge]

Great innings

[sweet smelt]

Yeah he played fucking well

[final plaza]

Yeah

[dull sedge]

Change of the ball did the trick

[final plaza]

Now we need Hardik

[sweet smelt]

One of the best

[dull sedge]

Hardik is in

Imo

[sweet smelt]

Yepppp

Lord Dubey departs

But he played decently ig

[dull sedge]

This is still gonna be a tough total to catch up on, especially with the Indian bowling attack on the prowl

[dim ledge]

Yeah you guys shouldn't be concerned

[final plaza]

One round of choking done

SA's turn to choke

De Kock out within 20 runs
Klassen within 10

[slow ravine]

Vk....

[robust grotto]

https://vxtwitter.com/friedgehnic/status/1807083330011074571?s=46&t=0dPhD14zL5uzVVpeHRQMfQ

[slow ravine]

What to even say

[robust grotto]

Wow

[celest steppe]

the sooner we dismiss these 2
the more sooner we remove miller better chance

[sweet smelt]

Goat 🐐

[tardy solstice]

Ok back

Good score

[sweet smelt]

@dim ledge

[slow ravine]

He does everything and more man...

[sweet smelt]

Literally saved the best for the end, man was not performing in the entire tournament but knew how crucial it was today and performed under pressure and the ending he did of his innings was beautiful

[dull sedge]

We weren’t choked

So that’s a relief

Batsman actually remembered how to play (except for pant)

[tardy solstice]

Tbf he qas kinda slow

Did accelerate at the end tho

[sweet smelt]

Nah

[dense blade]

he did

[sweet smelt]

He literally provided the base and it was needed cause axar was doing well at other end, then like struggles for 2 overs ig with hitting but got back to the hitting zone towards the end

[dense blade]

its a winnable score imo

[celest steppe]

just now hoping for jadeja also plays like how kohli did with the bat

[final plaza]

Depends

Just have to get De Kock out early

[sweet smelt]

Arshdeep will do that hopefully

[final plaza]

And have consistently good bowling

[sweet smelt]

Pls let our bowling not choke like last time

😭

[dense blade]

avg score in this ground is pretty low anyways

[tardy solstice]

Pls..

[celest steppe]

highest score chased is still less than our total

good thing

🙂

[sweet smelt]

It would be the highest total every chased in wc 20 final

[sweet smelt]

If they do it

[dense blade]

yeah

[dull sedge]

south africa doesnt have a consistently strong batting attack

if the top order falls, i think its over for them

[tardy solstice]

If we win I'll write a personal apology to dube

[dense blade]

someone said 176 is the highest score in a t20i final lol

[hasty basin]

No Pellegrini and Raspadori to take this FK smh

[dense blade]

he saved his best for the last

[hasty basin]

Di Lorenzo

WHAT ARE YOU DOING

[dense blade]

oh i forgot ro16 has begun

[tardy solstice]

Reeza hendricks is a good player

[robust grotto]

The red versus blue is just so appealing visually

[tardy solstice]

4 overs of god starts

[tardy solstice]

Ye

[fluid moat]

Give Spalletti the boot right after this is over

[hasty basin]

DONNARUMMA

[sweet tree]

tears the backline was sleeping there

[dense blade]

BOOOOMMMM

[sweet tree]

good save tho

[hasty basin]

I only respect

Bastoni here

[sweet tree]

where's the long hair dude

[fluid moat]

I have absolutely 0 confidence in Italy to win this

[hasty basin]

Suspended

[sweet tree]

calafiori

[hasty basin]

Yeah Calafiori

He's suspended

2 yellows

[final plaza]

Boom boom

[stuck quest]

Yo im late who is playing?

[tardy solstice]

And de kock is great

[tender cedar]

I’m worried about Mancini

[hasty basin]

I'm worried for everyone apart from Bastoni and Donnarumma

In the defence

[fluid moat]

Chiesa is the only player worth anything on this team

[tender cedar]

Kinda

Chiesa isn’t that on point recently

[hasty basin]

Barella's good too

[tardy solstice]

Markram plays well against india

[hasty basin]

Yk if Embolo

Goes to the wing it might be trouble

Darmian and Di Lorenzo vs physical pacy wingers

[tender cedar]

Di Lorenzo suffer a lot fast wing like Vargas

[hasty basin]

Dimarco used to too

[dense blade]

im more afraid of de cock

[hasty basin]

Pretty hard for Spalletti

I have no idea how Buongiorno would do

For Italy

[dull sedge]

slower start for SA than india, if we keep up the pressure then south africans wont be able to do much

[hasty basin]

But rated him very highly for serie a

[fluid moat]

Di Lorenzo suffers a lot doing anything

[hasty basin]

Had him as my CB pick for seria cemented

[final plaza]

Arshdeep needs to take de Kock's wicket

[dense blade]

LETSSS GOOOOOOOO

[final plaza]

This would work as well

[dense blade]

Markram gone

[dim ledge]

[tardy solstice]

HAHAHAHHA

[dim ledge]

Donna it's time to let it go bro

[sweet smelt]

Yeah baby

Fuck yeah

[tardy solstice]

Who's next

[dull sedge]

lets not get too excited now boys

[hasty basin]

Oh damn I didn't even know

[dull sedge]

team needs to choke more

[dense blade]

klassen

[hasty basin]

Isn't it happening to Barella too 😭

[sweet smelt]

If de cock goes then I am afraid of nothing

[dense blade]

david miller is scary

[dull sedge]

oh stubbs

[sweet smelt]

Oh yeah he is there too

[dull sedge]

i dont know much about this guy to gauge him

[dense blade]

Drs?

if its out its so over for SA

[fluid moat]

I apologize to Donnaruma for ever thinking anyone should start over him

[hasty basin]

Italy Donnarumma is diff

Has Italy ever had a mid keeper

Not even bad

Mid

[sweet smelt]

Review wasted

Hope we don't regret this ..

[final plaza]

Plays spin p well.

[final plaza]

Yeah this shouldn't have been taken

[dense blade]

we still have 1 review

[fluid moat]

Nah

[sweet smelt]

Yeah pant got over excited there

But well can't blame him

It was de cock

[dense blade]

another bumrah over coming

[final plaza]

Stubbs, Klassen and De Kock could very well win this match

[fluid moat]

Buffon was the keeper for like 20 years

[final plaza]

Need them gone quick

[hasty basin]

Yep

[sweet smelt]

Let's not forget miller

[fluid moat]

Italian keeper was always Juve until now

[dense blade]

oh man dont forget miller

[tardy solstice]

Stubbs is one of the best t20 batsman currently

[dense blade]

catch dropped?.

[hasty basin]

Dino Zoff as well before that

[sweet smelt]

It was Little away I think

Not dropped

[final plaza]

True true

[hasty basin]

There it is

It's over

[fluid moat]

Yeah

[noble fractal]

1:0 Switzerland

[robust grotto]

Saku Koivu’s son got drafted by MTL, that rules

[sweet tree]

SWITZERLAND KNOCKING FIRST

[fluid moat]

I mean I fully expected this

Defense is literally nowhere to be found

[hasty basin]

No one is anywhere

To be found

[dull sedge]

italy losing?

[nimble onyx]

Didnt see Italy beating them tbh

[hasty basin]

I did but exactly like this

Maybe a little more attacks

Or on pens

[sweet tree]

freuler was hella unmarked

[smoky fable]

Swiss up

[smoky fable]

Italy defense sleeping

[dim ledge]

How did England lose to this side

[sweet tree]

Italy had a much better defense back then

[nimble onyx]

[sweet tree]

https://tenor.com/view/chiellini-mammad-naderi-gif-22266811

[nimble onyx]

More inform players as well

[robust grotto]

Aatos Koivu

[fluid moat]

Used to have titans like Chiellini and Bonucci and now they have these clowns

[smoky fable]

Yeah Italy were in better form

[dense blade]

Italy will take it to the penalties

[smoky fable]

I forgot Caliafiori was suspended

[nimble onyx]

As soon as I take Freueler out he scores btw

[fluid moat]

Also missing a player like Insigne

[hasty basin]

Yeah man dik

Idk

This might be the worst Italy lineup I've seen

[fluid moat]

Left side has been dog shit the whole tourney

Nah 2016 was probably worse

[hasty basin]

Lol the defence alone

Was better

[fluid moat]

There was just a serious manager

[hasty basin]

And Pelle I'm taking over Scamacca

Sorry

[nimble onyx]

El Shaarawy is still playing

[hasty basin]

I hate Southampton personally but still

[nimble onyx]

for the Italian side

that says a lot

[hasty basin]

The midfield I'll say was awful

But all in all

I'm taking that team over this

Ayy Buffon

[smoky fable]

Seems like Italy can’t keep the ball at all

[dense blade]

SA is attacking spin

[hasty basin]

Well then

El Sharaawy

[final plaza]

Yeah...

[smoky fable]

Damn that almost snuck in

[latent quartz]

donnarumma carrying so hard

[sweet smelt]

This partnership needs to be broken...

[solid dagger]

Nah Donnarumma is insane

Best keeper itw rn

[hasty basin]

Yeah

[dense blade]

both spinners are not doing good

[hasty basin]

Donna for Italy

[dense blade]

jaddu time?

[hasty basin]

Well well

[solid dagger]

He's keeping us alive

[nimble onyx]

Italy making him age faster

[hasty basin]

Let's wait for Mamarda vs Spain :)

.

[fluid moat]

Everybody is letting him down

[solid dagger]

Switzerland is kicking our ass

[sweet smelt]

Quinny is making it seem so easy to play our spinners

[solid dagger]

We're playing so bad

[fluid moat]

I’m happy I didn’t have any hope

Less disappointment

[final plaza]

He just that good...

[hasty basin]

I think most Italians didn't

[sweet smelt]

Yeah..

[final plaza]

Need him gone

[dense blade]

4 overs of bumrah + arshdeep are very crucial

oh god....

[hasty basin]

There has to be a sub

I know it won't get much better

[dense blade]

its not looking good guys..

[fluid moat]

Spalletti’s selection single handedly killed any chance for this tournament

[nimble onyx]

Yea looked a really weak team to me

[fluid moat]

Leaving Locatelli and Orsolini at home

Playing Di Lo every game when he’s been shit in every single one

[nimble onyx]

Scalvini going out was a big loss tho

[fluid moat]

He has Cambiaso on the bench who 10x the player

[nimble onyx]

after the Spain game

[sweet smelt]

Man ....

We need them gone so badly

[dense blade]

de cock is a menace

do something rohit

[nimble onyx]

He's too loyal to Di Lorenzo

[sweet smelt]

Bring in pandya

[hasty basin]

He played the whole season with him in Napoli as a starter

[dense blade]

spin bowling is not looking good

[hasty basin]

Well technically seasons

[short flame]

Italy was so bland. If Switzerland had a better forward the game would be over

[tardy solstice]

Stubbs 75 loading

[nimble onyx]

or if Gigi wasn't in goal

[short flame]

Yeah he’s been solid

[short flame]

That free kick save was amazing

[dense blade]

change the spin wtf rohit

[lime monolith]

only consistent Italian player

throughout all of their matches

He should start playing cricket because football ain’t for him

[hasty basin]

Needs to go to Asslani fc

Klassen about to hit a 50 off 20
