I'm going to hoot and holler for a long time if Canada gets any kind of result against Belgium or Croatia.

If they get a chance to counterattack Belgium's old rear end defence :getin:

Herdman will engineer a 1-0 shock to Belgium and it will be Canada's only goal. 5 points in the group and out in the quarters

This is the poo poo I want to happen :getin:

goddamn bullshit-rear end country takes up nine-tenths of the earth's surface and then all the canadian posters come in like

"let's all meet up at jim's bar for the game since he's got chairs now so you don't have to sit on the floor, much better than the other bar eh"

Obviously we'd want to go to Jim's bar. Steve's bar sucks and he's a bit of jerk.

Do not eat at Tim Hortons ever I cannot stress this enough.

If you're looking for some Canadiana mojo, might I suggest listening to Neil Young or The Band while sipping a rye & ginger made with Alberta Premium and Canada Dry.

Or try a Caesar.

Also we're polite, but not because we like you, it's just how we were raised

Edit: Belgium lost their final WC tune-up :lol:

Time to panic or classic John Herdman mind games?

Got to be mind games. If Davies is anywhere near healthy you figure he's playing :pray:

Not bad but you can really see the difference between Canada and more experienced international teams - Canada just lacks the cutting edge that other teams do.

Not even sure it's a question of player quality, not sure what it is.

4-1 I feel was a bit unflattering

Yeah a lot of panicky play in both boxes by Canada and there is a definite lack of quality in the defence imo.

Still happy they haven't been run off the pitch in either game so far

Poor Eust�quio. Good decision to bench David, maybe gives him a wake up call

wake up call for what though? the tournaments over after this game..

2026. I mean it's great he's a top goal scorer in Ligue 1 but that doesn't necessarily translate to world soccer.

bub spank posted:

It seems like the turning point in the tournament was losing Eustaquio. They were holding in it against Croatia until he went down in the first half, and then got mauled in the second half without him. Same thing in this game. Game just gets out of hand without him there to settle things down.

Agreed

Him shredding ligue 1 and struggling for Canada reflects much more poorly on Canada than ligue 1 my dude

I think him sitting himself in the box several times against Belgium and being invisible against Croatia actually reflects poorly on him actually

Who said David wasn't a great player? He's been poor in these games, that's all I'm saying.

I had an extra spicy Caesar last night, maybe if they had been available in Qatar they would have scored more.

FIFA hosed Canada again!

I had a good time with my Canada posting pals for these past couple weeks.
