The World Cup thread

What a wise decision that turned out to be

Yes. For Maradona.

I'm sure someone knows the answer to this without me having to work it out. How many current and ex City players are at the WC?

Edit. Answered my own question I think. Elmo, Fathi, Irvine, Larrson, Harry and Grosicki.

Is that it?

And N’Diaye for Senegal.

And N’Diaye for Senegal.

I think that's actually a different N'Diaye, Badou. Ours was Alfred. Seems everyone's called N'Diaye in Senegal...

Alfred is definitely in the squad. Squad number 13.

You're quite right, I'm wrong. There are actually 3 N'Diaye's in the squad!

Of all the players signed by Silva, Alf was my favourite.

I liked Markovic for his performance against Arsenal. It baffles me that no one has taken him on yet, even on a season loan.

This world cup seems very sanitized.

Russia eh.

Can't be seen to have been hit by terrorism whilst they host a global event.

The driver apparently lost control of the car, whilst sitting stationary in traffic

'Pigs at a trough' doesn't come anywhere near. FIFA, the benchmark that all corruption should be measured by.

Olymipiakos want him on a permanent apparently.

Yet the FBI do their sting, move some fat cats only for other pockets to take the place and resume business as normal.

I don't understand why the proper football associations continue to associate with FIFA. We all should have left there and then, then their hugely valuable World Cup would suddenly become worthless, and those millions in bribes would never have harboured a return.

How many fans have made the journey from Peru? It looked like a home game!! Amazing support....

Yeah, women aren’t allowed an opinion, they should get back to the kitchen and keep up the supply of beer and snacks.

Not sure Evra, Larsson and Aluko will appear together again. Shocking.

Why. Did something happen or get said. Missed the build up and didn't listen to the half time waffle.
