Brazil 2 down to Norway, that's Alisson back in the next week for preseason. I know it's World Cup fever but that Haaland lad looks a real player. ?

Yeah, think it's great our players are coming home early.
05 Jul 2026 23:11:03
Alisson won't be back straight away as all players who play at World Cup will go on their holidays after & will report back in 10/14 days time.

Haaland reminds me of a heavyweight boxer like Riddick Bowe or Lennox Lewis. They are so big that they look knackered after 3 rounds and just lollop around the ring trying to stay on their feet, doing the bare minimum.
Then in the 10th round they throw a big haymaker and knock you clean out!
Astonishing stuff.

Good analogy, Rio.

Alison will get a couple of weeks off now before reporting back for preseason.
Just Munoz and Macca left now.

I think Munoz will be last to return. Spain are my tip for the WC.

You look at Haaland in the lead up to his first goal. He is literally walking, not running to create movement - he just knows he will attack the ball when it arrives.
Makes me less concerned about Isak's habit of walking around....

Alli won't be back next week lol.
Haaland reminds me of a Dragon Ball Z bad guy.

And that is why Brazil lost. They created enuff channces to win the game before Haaland opened the scoring, but unlike Norway, they don't have a ruthless finisher to put away the more than decent amount of clear-cut chances their play actually creates. Sad for them.

I think Ibou will be the last one back the way France are playing. Oh no, hang on...
