As a football fan I can say most of us don't mind penalties :D What I don't get is that people think Belgium and England played for 2nd place to avoid the 'stronger' bracket. England now has to face Colombia, and possible the Swiss (Qualified without losing for WC). And you got the team that played the best so far in Croatia. The other side of the bracket has a dissappointing Argentina and France, Brazil hasn't been solid but I expect them to be better. More scared of Mexico and Uruguay though.

Kid will be traded along with O'Reilly I think :(

Yeah he has had his fair share of injuries. Not a good game, but seems England didn't try much, we had a couple of nice chances.

I think its ok, other boards are much worse than ours :p

Maybe Management thinks we have a luxury at center. With Eichel - Mittelstadt - O'Reilly. We also got Pu who almost got a 9 game tryout last year.

Belgium going to change 9 players for this game, England more than 6 as well. Minor Injuries and won't play: Carasco, Hazard, Lukaku, Mertens Yellow cards: De bruyne, Vertonghen, Meunier Kompany and Vermaelen will start, need to get a game after recovering from injuries.

My only worry is that last year might have been an outlier for Hutton. Great season, but his first one that was this good.

Read something on HF about it last night at work.

We are also rumoured to have talked to JVR

Might as well have given it to Lehner then.

They could, nothing to stop them from doing so I think :p

Yeah I know that, but where do we put him? unless he is trading two of McCabe/Beaulieu/Guhle.

There really was no need for Hunwick, Don't think we have space for him. Sheary is a nice middle 6 LW. Its a nice deal, but we'll need to trade some of our LHD, preferably Beaulieu

Didn't think their youth overhaul was that big even, still had some stars in that team from last WC. But their play has really stunk, its not a good sign when you loose 4 straight games before the WC.

Been like that all Word cup, seen games go to 7 - 8 minutes of extra time.

I predicted out Argentina/Brazil/Germany that 2/3 wouldn't make it past group stage. Never expected Argentina to survive though, so Serbia better bring their best game tonight :D I like it though, the way they behaved after their win over Sweden. karma :p Deutschland Deutschland alles gehts vorbei alles gehts vorbei

I am a fan of the VAR if they get it right. Correct cal to review this.

Like my brother said, Germany has never won anything in Russia.

A good summer of working out will do wonders for him, I don't expect him up with the sabres in October though.

Bergeving is on the hot seat, and saying things just didn't happen because of "things" outside of his control. He is trying to make himself look better.

Who says it will be boring, have you seen who we would line up as replacements ? Kompany and Vermaelen need some playing time anyway :p

If we could have kept him at a lower price tag it would have been great I think. Lehner isn't bad goalie :unsure:

Wait until you see Belgium - England. :p We are going to rest Lukaku and Hazard with injuries, Mertens maybe to. De Bruyne, Vertonghen and Meunier are our yellow cards so they don't play as well :p Pretty Sure England will do the same with their injuries and Yellow card players.

Seems like its not just those 5 teams, but taking calls from 3 others to make a pitch as well.

Same goes for the leafs, yeah they can offer thim the one year max deal of 15 mill. But any long torm deal will surely result in losing one of Mathews, Nylander , Marner and maybe have to dump Kadri and still don't have a good defense.
