FIFA World Cup 2026 - USA/Canada/Mexico (Part 1)

Best thing is they have been spending the last 5 minutes since that analysis about lack of goals, focusing on Spain and Japan and the 17 shots that Curcao saved.

Darwin is on the bench.

Fuck you Bielsa.

Why? He did fuck all in the first game.

After hearing Tim Vickery’s report, apparently that’s the sentiment towards Bielsa from the Uruguay squad as well.

The player who is replacing Nunez…apparently Bielsa said to him that he “sat incorrectly”

I know according to this forum he can’t do no wrong but he did nothing in that first game.

Our old boy Luis is there watching.

Canobio looks a bit like Claudio Caniggia

It’s a fair comment that Darwin didn’t do much in Uruguay’s opener. It is well within Bielsa’s grasp to adjust his team as he sees fit. Nunez, if he applies himself, can at least be an effective sub if he comes on and gives his all.

I was one of the ones who could just about make a case for Darwin coming back on a free, to give us another forward option if we are going to be light with Ekitike out, and Isak not the most robust to play every game for the duration.

To be fair, his flaws are still there, whatever the price point. So now I think I would rather another option, or even a wide man who can play up front, or even a false nine sort of option with two exciting wingers either side.

I love the idea of Darwin coming in to press and make a nuisance of himself, picking up a few goals, but I suppose overall it’s not the wisest approach. Leave it in the past.

Hmmm …this is gonna be a physical match

Uruguay certainly looked fired up.

Lot will depend on the CB and the GK, I think the former was not credited enough and that’s coming from the Goalkeepers Union.

Infantino’s rather narcissistic isn’t he, let’s be honest we know why his TV rights lot are showing him at games.

And It’s a bit odd for a man who looks like a penis.

Uruguay playing like a mid-table championship team

High tempo game, Valverde poor effort there.

Should be finishing that. At least make the Verde Goalie make a save. I’m glad we are back on BBC means I am not about 2 minutes behind on this thread.

Ugarte. What a lemon
