2022 World Cup... gonna ruin the European Season

This isn’t the Argentina I was expecting this WC
They are really missing Correa and Lo Celso as options but their attack looks so blunt and their defence has no aggression
TBF none of these players are playing at the very top level clubs other than the aging Messi

If you’re missing Lo Celso you’re in trouble!
They just look like a very average team who happen to have Messi (35) playing for them.
 
Fairly dreadful game that one.

Won't be surprised if Poland and Saudi get out the group from here. Mexico don't look like they have a goal in them anywhere.
 
De Paul seems to be all over the pitch. Bit like PEH but more quality I would say.
What? He's been their biggest liability! Lost the ball very dangerously about 10 times in the first half alone! Carries the ball sideways and loses it time and time again. He's too fond of the ball, and doesn't pass it quickly enough.
 
Come on Japan! Get a goal! That would mean that one of Spain or Germany are out!

I almost always want the big footballing nations in the knockout stages. I don’t mind keeping an eye on Japan v Costa Rica (or similar) in the group stage while reading the paper, but have little interest in it being a Round of 16 or QF match.
