2018 World Cup discussion and information thread

the statistic match between Italy vs Sweden is very interesting that 73% ball possesion with 14 shot on goals can't makes Italy even at least makes 1 goals to pushing extra time and no Holland and Italy from this world cup seems pretty weird for me and also this is the biggest failure since 1958

Even though Italy has always been known as a defensive team, they always had players who were able to score in whatever games that they play but with their current team, they don't have any players who is able to score the goals when they really needed to.

What happened with Italy, it is difficult to explain in words. The players promised to give their best on the field to win the national team of Sweden. In the end, lost. But they are to blame for the loss.

What happened to Italy is because of the manager Ventura, he didn't activate Lorenzo Insigne our number 10 during yesterday night game and he only gave him about 20 minutes to play in Sweden. He is the best playmaker we have so far and if you saw the game yesterday we were suffering in midfield. Zhorzhinho is a Brazilian although naturalized as Italian and it was his first game. In such critical game you can't leave Insigne out. That is what happened yesterday.

I really hate to see Gianluigi Buffon crying all the time and this entirely all on the Italian FA, I was even this pissed off when my country wasnt able to qualify for the World Cup but am very pissed here because the team i really like fail to make it.

The manager should have been given the sack a long time ago with his strange football formation and tactics which yielded no results at all, I am surprised this is how low the Azzuris have been brought to after Conte revived them recently.

And his insisting on keeping these players leaving out some better ones and insisting on his schemes brought an Italy out of the world cup after 59 years consecutively that they have been on the World Cup. Darkest moment of football history for Italy, I wonder how will they come out from this, a revolution is needed in the national team.

i think is bad world cup
because 2 big team, italy and holand can't partcipate, and iam not believe only meet sweden in play off italy lost, with agregate goal 0-1

[Lucius]

It will be unusual to watch the World Cup without Italy,but if you can not score goals in two games against an objectively weaker team then you do not deserve to qualify.But there is few referee decisions which are very questionable,and first is foul in 8 minutes which can easily be penalty kick for Italy.Also second big mistake from referee is clear hand playing by italian player,and he give yellow card to a swedish player for protest.And what to say to that foul from Lusting on Darmian,knee to the stomach with all its strength,but referee say Darmian play with hand before that.

This was an interesting game with lots of opportunities,unfortunately without goals.Italy will certainly have to change something,what is certain that there will not be Buffon any more.Excellent goalkeeper and captain say this was last time to play for national team.

Well I will eat some pasta with pesto tonight as a way of saying 'Goodbye' to Italy  Honestly I am not gonna miss them at all when we have such exciting teams in like Iceland!

Lol that what I did 
A tearful Gianluigi Buffon said he was "sorry for all of Italian football" as he led a wave of international retirements after a World Cup play-off defeat by Sweden.

Why do you think it is bad world cup?

Italy and Holand were strong teams but this time they didn't prove that they are strong so who ever qualified for the world cup are better than these teams. That means you should still see good matches in the world cup.

I think he should retire from football entirely because this heartbreak is too much for a man to bear, With the exception of the Champions League he has won a lot of things in football except that.

true Holland and Italy we're not strong enough to get a spot in World cup . The Netherlands made it difficult to them by keep changing the coach of the first team for more than three years and their best performance we're when they ended the previous world cup at 3rd place with LVG now until now they have been struggling to keep their previous image and for Italy they we're unlucky when they had to face Sweden but if you're gonna be a candidate to win world cup you would have to win every game and they didn't do that in the first leg against Sweden which made it harder For them to fo in the second leg maybe it's time for them also to.clean their house from corruption because they are not the team we used to know.

[ralle14]

I had that feeling that Italy won't qualify and my gut was correct I still had Italy to qualify but I went more with the under 2.5 goals on their 2nd leg which made me break even.

For today i'm putting a unit on Ireland to qualify odds at 2.3 ,after holding the Danes on the 1st leg to a draw this is their chance to pounce back and win. Another bet I have is the under 1.5 looking at their past scores against other teams both of them don't want to give any goals we could see extra time being played. Bet  Slip

Edit : Wow I was way off Denmark showed up.

Some nice friendly and test matches tonight. I am going to set the following bets.

Qatar vs Iceland # double chance, draw or win Qatar @2.09
I think it is gonna be too hot for the vikings
 
Nigeria vs Argentinia    # Win Argentinia @ 1.56

Germany vs France # double chance, draw or win France @ 1.59
 
Belgien vs Japan # double chance, draw or win Japan @3.05

Portugal vs USA    # over 2.5 goals @ 1.71

Normally should be a nice and easy win for team Belgium. But maybe I am a bit biased, because I am from Belgium  .
Defence will be more strong with Vertongen instead of Ciman and with Lukaku on fire, my guess would be 4-0 for Belgium.

And what a shame For Italy! Arrivederci coach Ventura lol.

I was very shocked about the outcome of the Argentina game and how Nigeria were able to win the game and with that margin as well, I heard Sergio Aguero was rushed to the hospital after the game was over, I hope it's not something very serious at all.But still the outcome of the game was very surprising.

An argument was made about Argentina
  Messi and ten donkeys for what goes Messi keeps 10 donkeys a big burden on his shoulders in an attempt to achieve an achievement with such a team

[Pab]

Chelini is ending his careera for Azzuri together with yet another two players,Italy really needs to get back to work otherwise thay will be another Holland team in deep crisis,Argentina better find new coach untill it is not to late
