Most ridiculous Defence in the tournament. How many goals can a team gift away?

Ghana are even worse than I thought. Both goals were avoidable, just boot the ball away to Row Z, they won't score from there. Egypt are good on the ball no doubt and Ghana had a zero midfield presence. It feels like they are playing too far away up front. Osman Bukari came on as sub and and was hi...

Well, I even expected much worse performance from Ghana, but this Congolese ref sef ... at least on 2 different occasions, the ball hit the hand of of two different Cape Verde defenders but no pk given + first half disallowed Ghana goal because the Ghana player blocked the keeper's "line of si...

Chris Houghton is probably out after this. Some of the Ghanaian players are just awful Yeah not looking good for him right now, Ghanaian players are better than the coaching suggests. They should have kept the coach that took them to the world cup , had some promise to him. Ghana should swallow the...

You are right - Germany 🇩🇪 sticking with Low and Flick for so long was a terrible mistake that led to nothing other than Germany winning the World Cup, winning the Confederations Cup, and reaching the European Championship final. Meanwhile, Nigeria 🇳🇬 (which routinely fires it coach before major to...

Sad end for Hansi. He had been with the national team for 10 years (if we count his 8 years as assistant manager). Still, Germany's coaching stability is amazing. 🇩🇪 Germany has had only 2 managers in the last 17 years. :shock: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1700879824095510588?s=20 It's...

If they wanted to fire Flick, they would have done so after the World Cup (and should have done so). If the September games are as horrible as the last ones he might be fired though

Oliver Khan Sacked as Bayern CEO minutes after they win their 11th straight title. Levels. Lol :rotf: :shock: The board wanted Bayern to win the league with a minimum of 20 points or what? Kahn's appointment was ridiculous. I had a few talks with a friend of mine who thought it was a good decision ...

So Mané Punched Sané in the face, he is on his way to become Bayern’s worst signing Please explain how he is on his way to become Bahednst worst signing Came as the star signing, earning 22m€ a year, not delivering on the pitch and causing trouble inside (supposed argument with Nagelsmann, now this).

So Mané Punched Sané in the face, he is on his way to become Bayern’s worst signing

Strange timing.
Last season was poor, sure, and this season's league results could be improved.
But he is still in all competitions, his CL record looks stellar this season. Why fire him midseason?
Tuchel will be available every 12-24 months anyway, so it's not like there is a golden opportunity

HSV used to have the best one

What exactly is the problem of the team? They need to build. Their arrogance is the problem. They were beating their chest about not selling Mbappe, when they should have cashed in. But no, they didnt. They gave him unprecedented power. Same as the useless purchase of Messi -- what was the point? A...

I meant 2014 World Cup, not 2018, my bad. I pointed out that your "several metrics" are missing the most important one. And the moment you have the most important one, the others might only become interesting for _further_ investigation. I gave plenty of example (Italy/Brazil in 1982, Hol...

That's the context for your stats: Conclusions to come later but at first glance it seems the most important quality in WC success for African countries is number of players playing in top leagues, not the presence of an organized league, although that too is important. Don't tell me with a straight...

You left out the most important stat: How far did each team progress at each participation. Points and Wins do not tell the whole story and it not be wise to compare them to each other. Tunisia's win against France team B or Cameroon's win against Brazil's team surely are not equal to Senegal's win...

I don’t think the top 5-6 teams are the same for every World Cup cycle. The point remains that Europe’s many places is often justified by the performances and results. It might look a little different if you look at performances by the teams that are below the top tier. But they have many entrants ...

Why would African teams want to learn from Asians in regards to football? Is their something uniquely Asian towards their football? And is their something distinctively African, so that all teams could learn something from Asian teams? Btw Japan advanced in 2002 with a FC, was eliminated in 2006 wit...

The sad thing is that the only surprising performance was against Spain. I haven't seen Germany play so focused for ages now. The games against Costa Rica and Japan were just like all the games before. The coach had the audacity to suggest that he wants to continue until the EUROs. I thought that it...

Spain has already scored as many goals as they did when they won in 2022 Giroud is tied with Henry for all time French scoring leader Richarlison has scored more WC goals than Ronaldinho No freekick has been scored so far Ronaldo has become the first person to score in 5 WCs Ronaldo is Portugals yo...
