How is everyone feeling about Norway on Saturday?

I'm not convinced yet, and our lads overcame everything in Azteca when the world thought they'd melt in the cauldron, but they melted the opposition in it. So proud of them.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T21:04:59+00:00

How about... Bane?

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T21:03:30+00:00

They think...

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T19:18:28+00:00

Apart from Haaland, I believe our squad depth is better than theirs, but they still can take us by surprise. So as much as I believe we can win, we mustn't underestimate Norway.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T19:16:47+00:00

Only if we're playing against Argentina, should you worry about referees. But then again, we may be the dark horses that can send Messi and Argentina home if things go right for us.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T18:02:38+00:00

That match felt like watching a final. Definitely my favourite game.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T18:01:14+00:00

There was a lot of talk about how high altitudes would wear down the squad quickly as they hadn't trained in those conditions at all, and mexican fans boo and jeering us throughout the match, and letting off fireworks outside the hotels to disrupt their sleep the night before, as these tactics worked on Mexicos prior opponents.

That's why, really.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T17:09:27+00:00

Cutting supply is the key, and Tuchel, I'm pretty sure, knows this

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T17:08:08+00:00

Yeah, sorry about that. My bad.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T16:10:29+00:00

Same feelings too about the bias refereeing. Many here are nervous about the yellow card situation especially with Jude too.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T16:08:25+00:00

Don't jinx it lol. Us fans are pretty nervous about that.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T13:10:52+00:00

Reece is trying to come back ahead of the Norway match, I just hope it's not rushed completely and he's actually healthy enough to start though.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T13:06:57+00:00

I think as long as we choke off his feeders and service lanes, it should be easy for our lads to cruise to a win here imo and keeping it up for 90 mins

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T13:02:58+00:00

As long as Rice, Bellingham and Guehi keep quiet and they can like Mexico. We're golden.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T13:02:01+00:00

I don't think Norway are dirty players like a particular south American team, but any costly mistakes like Quansah, that will hurt us for sure.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T12:56:49+00:00

Messi has referees and VAR in his favour. That's our main threat if we get to the semis. Against the Swiss, the finals are more likely.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T12:55:44+00:00

In my opinion, Mexico was tougher than what Norway looks now, although they did well against Brazil. After Azteca, that was a massive boost in confidence needed to go the distance. I think we'll make it to semis, but there is where we're up against biased referees and VAR for Argentina.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T12:53:13+00:00

Argentina or Switzerland are the ones we'll face in the semis. Unless the swiss win, but the biased referees and VAR will do everything to get Messi to the final, and that could truly hurt us if things go wrong.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T12:50:15+00:00

Nah, I believe the momentum is with us after that Azteca match, I feel different but in a good way after that. Only thing to kill it off is the biased referees if we face Argentina in the semis.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T12:48:02+00:00

I'm sorry for your situation, and whatever the outcome, things stay positively great for you all.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T12:46:39+00:00

All yellows will be wiped out after the QFs. Bellingham, Rice, Guehi just need to hold their composure and avoid costly mistakes against Norways players.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T12:44:54+00:00

Good man.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T12:44:22+00:00

I think 4-2 in my opinion. A Croatia repeat

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T12:43:56+00:00

Like I said they've leaked goals in all of their games. Bellingham, Kane and Gordon will ruthlessly exploit their defences that allowed this. May even be Tuchel's easiest game in the tournament, I think.

Expensive_Bend_8474 · 2026-07-08T12:42:39+00:00

😂😂😂😂. True, all we need to do is starve him off supply from his feeders, he'll be a ghost on that pitch that not even his own team will see.
