Belgium v Panama match thread

[Finnegan]

I'd forgotten the joy of Lawro complaining about literally everything for ninety minutes. Ugh.

A Gamst Pedersen standard dive. 

 

Also a shocking ginger blonde dye job.

tried to get in a comment about a guy being chucked out by the Russians but was given no attention to it

Went over the commentators head tbh. I got it. 

 

Belgium need to stop trying to be clever and settle in to just doing the basics first. 

 

All these back heels and flicks going ****ing nowhere. Just keep possession for a second, these are crap, they'll crumble. 

 

Think when Mertens is diving in the box after seven minutes it sorta tells you how confident they aren't. 

[Bert]

Lawro is to BBC what Hoddle is to ITV. 

[StanSP]

Now he's going on about expecting to get hit from close-range, as if that's some barometer not to get hurt by a powerful free-kick anyway

Straight on the bonce from point blank.

[Bert]

Our game against Panama is going to be exactly like this too. 

[Detroit Blues]

The classic 5-5-0 formation

 

[Finnegan]

Belgium probably the worst big team I've seen so far. Especially given they're playing a team of Saudi Arabia standard. 

 

Why are they lumping log speculative passes or forcing flicks and balls that aren't on? Why are they rushing at all? 

 

Chill. Take your time. There's bags of quality, a number of players that can shoot well from range, Mertens is brilliant making space in the box as is Hazard, they have everything they need to break down Panama if they keep possession and patiently get closer. 

 

This is bizarre so far. They don't really have any comprehensible style at all.

[Jaspa]

Witzel is bang average

[Jaspa]

Jump on the floor, get a freekick 50% of the time, 100% not getting a yellow for diving.

 

Really has been the worst part of this Tournament

But what they do have is a Roberto Martinez

[Bert]

I think Lawro has a Belgium shirt on. 

[AKCJ]

Hazard with about 8 rolls for a simple shoulder to shoulder.

 

Pansy.

[foxfanazer]

This is what it’s all about. World class talent against gritty, passionate part timers

[ARTY_FOX]
