If he had come to us and not scored in his first couple of matches the crowd would have been on his back immediately. He could have been destroyed by it and ended up the fat lad he was last time with us. Better for him to give us a wide berth.
Apart from normally the same teams qualify anyway. The whole competition is set up to let the richest through. It will get even worse, I believe. In the next few years. I do not even watch the finals stages now either.
Russia the better team by a mile. Could be a long second half. Right back struggling . Mctominay looks a good player but could put an extra yard on some of his passes.
