FIFA World Cup 🇺🇸 🇲🇽 🇨🇦 2026

Cherki is my favourite player in the PL by a country mile, outstanding footballer.

I prefer all the Leeds players.

Ao Tanaka is the 8th one down second row btw

田中 碧

That’s one I was referring to.

Looks like a menu in a Japanese restaurant

Which is somewhat better with pictures and Google Translate

Cream rises to the top and I'm afraid that the 3 you mention were simply not good enough at Citeh considering its huge resources

Agree. My point is, if Grealish had stayed at Villa (for example) he’d have been a starter for the last 4 seasons and probably still in the England squad. If Foden was at any other club he’d be a starter too in the prime of his career.

Marcelo Bielsa has caused a bit of controversy by leaving out Uruguay national team stalwart Nahitan Nandez from the World Cup squad.

The versatile player has been a regular under Bielsa and publicly backed him over the Luis Suarez drama.

Remember we were linked with him every summer

[Muppet the Cat]

Must have previously been unthinkable that not a single Real Madrid player in the Spain WC squad

[Cjay]

Summerville makes it into the Dutch squad.

No place for Pascal

[1964white]

No place for Pascal

After his best season at Leeds.

Netherlands not short of good CB's though.

[Cjay]

After his best season at Leeds.

True.

But hid direct competition for left sided cb is Micky van de Ven whose a level above tbf.

His pace alone makes him unique for a cb, especially neccessary next to an ageing Van Dijk.

£5m if he makes his debut Talk about rubbing salt into West Ham's wounds lol

[SG90]

No Real Madrid players make Spain's squad for the first time ever. Mind you, their best players are either Brazilian or French, you don't really hear of any Spanish ones.

[Muppet the Cat]

Can’t believe that Memphis Depay is still kicking around, let alone good enough to go to the WC.

[Cjay]

Lionel Messi officially called up for his record 6th World Cup (just hope he's fit).

We've also been heavily linked to 5 of that squad in the past
Martinez
Tagliafico
De Paul
Almada
Gonzalez
(And Messi when I convinced myself his dream was to play for Bielsa)

Once again, football squads are all about a different levels as you imply.
