World Cup 2018 Qualifiers

Hmmmm not too sure about that.

He wouldn't be above Giroud, Lacazette, Mbappé, Fékir or Griezmann. And he wouldn't play wide for France, he would be in the same situation than Gameiro and Martial, we have better wide players and better goalscorers. For Monaco it's a different story because he is better than Germain who was a valuable player and performed very well.

You're underrating Rashford big time here.

Giroud is one dimensional player. Only dangerous for his header, against weak defenders. Easy being replaced.

Lacazette, meh player. And Fekir ? Really ? What has he done ?

Mbappe is the better player than Rashford still debatable. Mbappe plays in the weak league. With 2nd best team. And even now he is going to play with PSG. His task is easy.

The only one better now is Griezman. But can he maintain the current level, time will tell.

So no one then. Deschamps is the coach not you or I.

You are taking the piss m80
 
I don't think @JPRouve is saying that Rashford is a poor player, he just wouldn't get in whatever system their coach is trying to play.

Giroud for example is someone a lot of people don't rate highly but is a mainstay in the French squad.

That's exactly what I said, I clearly mentioned his profile as a problem for France and said that he would be great for Monaco.

Edit: Martial is the reversed, he has been more prolific than Rashford and isn't selected for France.

Why do you lose your time with them, just say Rashford is the best player Planet Earth has ever seen, the Premier League the best the Universe never seen, France is shit, Ligue 1 is shit, Mbappé is shit, Spain is shit, Isco is shit, and they will live forever happy on their mitical bubble, waiting for Farage, Gove and Bojo to tell them how mighty they are. :lol:

I was acknowledging Rashfords qualities but it wasn't enough.:lol:
 
Yes! Faroe Islands v Andorra tonight. The highlight of the WCQs. I can't wait.

I presume you were being sarcastic with your comment, but in fairness this is one of the few matches between sides of similar abilities.

No wonder why International football is so dismal. Can you imagine the outcry if the likes of Chelsea, Man Utd, Liverpool etc were playing championship to non league opposition throughout the season except for glorified friendlies, which is basically what England is doing. Even then, they are still dreadful.

Another week before we get our football back. I wish they put all these internationals together somewhere, instead of spread out over the year. Using January as a break, except for internationals would be a start.
 
Holland can take it to the final game against Sweden if they win today.

Hopefully they show some pride at home.
 
Bulgaria game being shown on American national tv, a real treat since I don't have to stream. We'll probably lose since we can't play away but with this Holland team anything is possible :D Ajde Bulgari!
 
Sad for fosu. He was one of the better players for the dutch against france and he is dropped today. I hope he doesn't get demoralised as his team has not been winning,be it dutch or palace.
 
Dark times for Netherlands. Shame for them that their team came just inches away from winning 2010 and 2014 World Cups because they will not get back to those stages for a while.
