Dembele no Dey help matters ,always flopping for France

Kane
Mbappe
Olise

These are the top 3 ,at least for now and base on my favorite to win the wc

Second grade

Yamal
Messi
Dembele

But many things can change

Dembele was good last season

But this season he is not balodor worthy


Those 5 players you mentioned are above him

MorataFC:
Sincerely speaking, Argentina no play anything in this game, they are just lucky to have Messi.

Argentina have been very underwhelming for the amount of stars they have


It's literally just Messi running everything

Make dem no even try give dembele that balodor


Olise
Kane
Mbappe
Yamal
Messi

Should all be above him
If he wins then football has lost its value

A40:
He was struggling to see shirt at Brighton. Football is a funny game.

One thing I know as far as he's fed with chances the guy will score. His eye for goal is good

Was a shocker cos he was really good at union st guiilose in Belgium, discovered him there

And he's not been bad for stuggart too

And Belgium


Dem useless gan 😂

After watching the teams play

France and Portugal (personal bias) still remain my favorites

Japan and Morocco and dark horses

England, Brazil and surprisingly usa will go far in this world cup.

Omo tf
Not Enzo too

I know I slander you a lot but na joke I dey joke, please stay 🥲

Bombblacks:
When has Nigeria ever represented Africa well at the world cup with our numerous group stage exist.

Nigeria is the African country with the most world cup matches wins.

Morroco might surpass it this campaign though

BlueRayDick:
Una wey dey watch this world religiously dey try o. The timing of the matches are just so odd due to time zone issues; to even watch the 9 O'clock matches complete is a big struggle for me, talk more of the 11pm, 2am and 3am matches.

I hope European and African countries get to host more World cup tournaments in the future ahead of the Americas and Asian countries with their unfavorable time zone.

The one in Qatar had the best timing

11am to 9pm

MorataFC:
I know, but that is not the point I am making. Are you saying Canada alone does not have the capacity to host a World Cup event? Why give them such a small allocation?
They have now denied them the opportunity to bid for hosting the World Cup in the next 20 to 30 years because it will be on record that they hosted in 2026, even though we all know they are just like second supporting striker to the USA.

Yes they don't.

Leyqute:
Chelsea needs Cucurella more than Madrid needs Cucurella. Una no get many decent defenders yet una let go one of the few decent ones. Did Alonso sign off on this as well?

Be like say na suffer Una wan suffer this new season.

I don't understand
The team finished 10th

The players wants ucl footy and Madrid was available for him

CrystalTiger:
Who allowed this country to come to WC?

They are young inexperienced side nothing to insult them over

Brazil sef chop 7 for Germany hand

Bluelines69:
We done finally turn stepping stone club, because why are we selling Cucu one of our better players when we all know we’d not get a replacement

He is 28 , he wanted to leave

The offer was good enough

andrewbaba44:
Very weird

Barca never serious for that position ,cucurella is the best man out there alongside di marco

Very Good signing for Madrid ,but what will happen to carreras and Fran Garcia ? Lmao

Fran Garcia and Mendy will leave

Carreas will be back

Madrid just spent 100m on 2 lbs in back to back seasons

andrewbaba44:
😂😂

I'm sure barca was his choice but it seems barca had no interest in him

Weird seeing a la masia graduate play for Madrid

Sportsweb:
Yeah, Hato that is still developing.. Chelsea usual coping mechanism whenever a player leaves

My stance is well documented here

You fit follow cucurella go Madrid sha

A player wants to leave what should we do

This is the most surprising transfer I've ever seen

Hato is 10x better than him sha so good riddance

AirBere:
Eh, that's the problem with narratives.

Abde had elite dribbling but poor end product in previous years. But last season, he had a breakout level season. His dribbling remains absolutely elite and the numbers are coming through now. There's a reason why Newcastle wanted him to replace Gordon until his recent injury.

Laliga: 10 goals, 9 assist in 29 appearances. That's 19G/A

Europa: 4 goals, 3 assist in 12 appearances. That's 7G/A

Copa Del Rey: 2 appearances, 1 goal, 1 assist 2G/A. That's 28G/A in all competitions(43) last season with no penalties.

If Abde played, Ibanez would've been sent off. He would've cooked him so bad.

Wow , was a huge fan of the guy but I stopped following since his end product was poor

I had no idea he had massively improved like this

Then he is a huge miss for Morocco

Roland17:
Watching the snake 🐍 lose his opening game after running his mouth in the pregame match conference is all my soul needs!

How many years you never still forgive cahanoglu 😂😂😂

BlueMann:
Bro bias aside, Morocco dey ball abeg.

That Brazilian right back dey go through a lot right now

Omo that midfielder, the young Moroccan na confirm baller o

Omo

AirBere:
Same here. Abde is gonna be a huge miss for Morocco Kai

Abde kor? Is it not ezazouli of betis?Person wey no good

They were really solid today

andrewbaba44:
I never enjoy any wc game so far

Didn’t watch the South Korea game Midnite ,maybe that one for sweet

Mexico weak host nation with what they played against xenophobic people

Canada another weak team again

I am sure GBrazil be Morocco will have something better for me

I've not watched a single game

No better country don play so far

Whizlight:
The whole of Portugal, and the only striker people can point to as Cristiano Ronaldo’s replacement is Gonçalo Ramos.

Think about that for a second.

For years, Portugal have produced world-class talent in every area of the pitch. Elite midfielders. Elite defenders. Elite wingers. Yet the No. 9 position has remained a problem. Even Ronaldo himself wasn’t born a striker. He was shaped from a midfielder into a winger, and then into a goalscoring machine.

So when people like Rio Ferdinand say he should come off the bench, the question is simple: for who exactly?

Where is the world-class striker waiting to take his place?

There is no ruthless, undeniable No. 9 banging down the door. No generational striker forcing the issue. Just endless debate, opinions, and empty expectations.

The reality is that, at 41, Ronaldo is still the most feared goalscorer in the squad and still the player his teammates look for when they need a goal.

The truth is simple: Portugal’s biggest problem isn’t Ronaldo starting. It’s that after all these years, they still haven’t produced a striker good enough to make anyone forget him.

Not one.

Exactly they should deploy a false 9 then

Goncalo Ramos worse pass am

We stand a chance to win this cup without Ronaldo starting every game

Lmao the transfer window is so messed up and every club wants to make 100m from a player

Why are shit players like
Mattues Fernandez
Adam Wharton
Elliot Anderson

All commanding 100m fees 😂😂😂


There's nothing special about these players that should make them go for more than 60m

Bluelines69:
PSG this style no go work o, no directness at all

I never see wetin good for this kvara guy

Mendez has done more than him on that wing

Congratulations
Blueraydick and roland17

popizaino:
This is Ryan Giggs killing it from the LWF.

When no team is trying to imitate Barca or Messi.

When coaches understand their players better rather than trying to force them to be what they were not.

People would have given us excuses as to why Neto cannot shoot from were Giggs was scoring from.


https://x.com/i/status/2057204494585221165

Really sad that this kind of direct play/players don't exist again

popizaino:
I will be very disappointed in Chelsea if we win league with 82points.

They did 87 pts some seasons ago and didn't win

When na your Turn na your turn

BlueRayDick:
When all is said and done, we will discuss how Arsenal won this year's EPL trophy without conceding a single PK nor have any of our players sent off; Yes, Zero red card after game week 37!

How Arteta turned around this team that used to collect red card anyhow and give away careless Penalty kicks to a very disciplined team when defending or on the offensive is still a mystery.

Crazy stat


But be like joy of pl don make una forget say una still fit carry champions league join 😂

iamoyindamola:
The biggest fool of the year not surprised though
There is trolling and there is stupidity, we know what this guy is

Fool of the year.

Godx:
Congratulations to Arsenal,Not well deserved, lucky and helped by referees but congratulations all the same.

City fan complaining about refree
The irony


Just know you're not smelling any pl trophy for next 5 seasons at least

2 down 3 to go

Bluelines69:
Maresca wey no see Arteta beat once, he’d most likely not even last there

He's not winning shit league with City

The job is bigger than him, maybe cup competition yes


Thank God guardiola is gone

This is the first time we are having two different league winners back to back in a while


He don turn here to farmers league
