Has nothing to do with his opinions, more to do with the manner he is expressing them just to try and prove me wrong. Its like me using stats against him to answer why I think Leyton Orient is worse than X team. Doesn't work see? I couldn't give a fuck whether you think Orient are shit or not, I've watched them twenty years, I knew that within six months and can accept it.

I never looked at Peru's results, nor did I try and compare the two sets of results, you simply didn't give Uruguay as much credit as I think they deserved. You're such a fucking know all when in fact, you know little and what you know is based upon bias and bitterness. Then you have no right to comment on Peru if you don't know a thing about us. And you're opinion isn't based on anything but stats which are so misleading. Its not that I can't accept it, its that you haven't seen a second of either team to comment. I've seen Uruguay and I don't think they deserve credit because they have a huge pool of players to use from and they utilize the same players from 2010. Yet they play garbage football. Yes, I understand they are born to play this way. This is their style to play based on spirit and win in the air, but at the same time, this isn't how they played in 2010 or even in 2014. They were much better than this. Is my opinion based on that? Well then, I may as well give up everything I do because I base my things off my own vendetta's, if you truly want to believe that. 2 minutes ago, Smiley Culture said: I couldn't give a fuck whether you think Orient are shit or not, I've watched them twenty years, I knew that within six months and can accept it.

They aren't better than us though and we got 2 draws against Argentina, and didn't lose a game in 2017, which you conveniently ignored to have an embarrassing pop at us. They aren't as bad as England but they are almost as dull if not worse. They have no creativity and all their goals still come from set pieces or deflections. I concede that my comments towards you the other day weren't necessary. Now? You're asking for it didn't take me long to find TWO goals in a draw against Brazil scored from open play without deflections

Are you the final arbiter of how teams should play or how they should score their goals? No, of course not. They play a different style. I just think they are horribly dull and have been outrageously lucky to get to where they are. Again, they didn't have great form after the second round begun. I remember when I said they would beat Chile in Santiago 3-0 and they lost 3-1, then I said they would beat Brazil and after we beat them I began to realize, these aren't that good.

Or is that just another exception? (1hr 48m in).

Mate, I was obviously exagerrating when I said "every goal". However, MOST of them came from the air, and you could only pick one out of the ones I sent you. Seems totally uncoincidental, eh?

And you did tell me to look at the Colombia match. So i did? Proved you wrong in doing so? Also, I'm not gonna trawl through all of their games. Literally typed in Google/YouTube Uruguay 2018 world cup qualifier goals and the Brazil match came up first. Hence saying it didn't take me long. The point being that not all of their goals came from set pieces or deflections and your perception of how they score was wrong.
Smiley Culture Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Uruguay games since 2016 where Uruguay scored 3+ goals: 5 Peru games since 2016 where Peru have scored 3+ goals: 4 (5 if you include an awarded game v Bolivia) Anyway, that's my last post on this. As I said above, the nations above shouldn't be declared the worst because they're expected to do little.
Guest Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Just now, Stan said: The point being that not all of their goals came from set pieces or deflections and your perception of how they score was wrong. Not really. I saw almost all their games in this campaign as they usually play before Peru, and 70% of their goals came from the air. There are exceptions, like the 2 against Brazil, the first goal away at Chile and even in Lima their goal wasn't aerial. However, I can also name so many goals that were scored by headers or by a set piece. If you watched full 90 minute games of Uruguay, then you'll know that they don't often have posession of the ball and score on their 2nd or 3rd touch. Its worked for them, but it won't last forever because some teams tried to stop it near the end and Uruguay began to drop points. Not sure how Saudi Arabia are in the air but I doubt they'll receive a "walloping" because its very hard for Uruguay to do so.
God is Haaland Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 When I saw this thread's title, I immediately wanted to post "This thread has potential.", but several sperg-outs already happened. One part of me is like "Wtf? This thread is only 2 hours old", another part is like "Should have known better with Teso and Blue on this forum".
6666 Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 i can see Panama being slapped around in every game. Even in their game against Tunisia.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted February 1, 2018 Subscriber Posted February 1, 2018 The expectations for Panama will be so low that they'll probably seem to do well even if they lose all three games. Saudi Arabia have been to the World Cup enough times that seeing them get spanked three times will just be boring and depressing because people will be like what's the point of them being in it without any novelty value.

IMO someone else should have gone from the AFC but it is what it is and while I don't particularly like them at a WC they did do it through a process of elimination so there must be something there.
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted February 1, 2018 Subscriber Posted February 1, 2018 Heaven forbid someone else has an opinion on a football forum, they must be an idiot and not watch games. So tedious and boring when nearly every world cup thread turns into this. I dont even have to unblock him to know whats transpired. Realistically as others have stated its probably the Saudi's but for the pure luls ive voted the way i have.
Guest Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 Oi, @Spike what gives, you don't have a silly vendetta against me like the other guys
