I really can't be arsed with this World Cup 22:04 - Jun 17 with 1853 viewsWarkystache

Fell asleep during the first half. Perhaps it's the times the games take place but the whole false bonhomie and the ITV commentators sat in prime Brooklyn splendour just grates with me somehow. Also the titles for both ITV and the Beeb are third-rate.

It somehow bores.

I was struggling first half. It’s come to life now though. I can’t comment on the other matches as I’ve not had the chance to watch much at all.

First game I've watched this world cup. Probably the most exciting England performance I've seen in a long long time.

Been a lot of dross, but when the big teams are on show it’s been decent.

Tonight was of course fantastic . But next 5 games are totally uninspiring

Although I haven't watched much of it, I have been pleasantly surprised how competitive it has been. I expected a lot of the lesser sides to be put to the sword but most have done themselves proud already. I still suspect there will be few shocks with regards to the top sides being knocked out in the first round but am beginning to wonder if I will be wrong about that.

Poor attempt at being edgy. The games have been entertaining (Scotland apart), and that was a good performance from England.

For once, ITV are bossing the pundit game with the BBC feeling very low budget.

But you do you. How many games have you watched so far?

Group games are hit and miss. Enjoyed Switzerland V Qatar. Brazil V Morocco.
But that England game had everything how you fell asleep I don't know. It was swinging both ways the first half, then the coach came out at half time saying players were too much Chaos. Lots to analyse then a great game second half. Could have watched it for another hour more.

I think for me. Less teams. More quality. Less games would make it more exciting. Oh and in countries that creates atmosphere.
England game was fab tho once both sides went for it.

A 6 goal bore? And but for the Croatian keeper, we'd have been looking at a 10 goal bore at least!

Didn’t think I’d get on with Tuchel when he was appointed, but credit to him, that second half was vintage McKenna 2023-24 style!

Yeah not watched any of it so far, might tune in to the knockouts if we get there. Too many teams with no interest for me.

Not watched a single game, just wait till the following day and watch the highlights. Never really had any interest in watching international games.

Even the first half wasn't bad as a spectacle - just nervy for England fans.

I get some people don't follow internationals, but this was a cracking game - a good take here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/fo

Not really - I just like watching my team. I would t for instance watch Everton v Spurs either. Life is too short to watch meaningless games imo.

Just as I’m into sports cars and have no interest in posting in a Ford Focus forum.

It's been OK so far, despite my initial reservations, but I've enjoyed quite a few of the games.

Not much of an atmosphere at most games though - well, not coming through on TV anyway.

I have to say, I'm impressed with size and quality of the US stadia - I had no idea they had such great ones out there. Football is obviously more popular out there than I thought.

I think for me. Less teams. More quality. Less games would make it more exciting. Oh and in countries that creates atmosphere.
England game was fab tho once both sides went for it.


I don't know, the PL is far better quality but much, much less exciting.

The tempo has been fast, not too much set piece/long throw nonsense and it seems to me a better standard of player behaviour than we see domestically and at previous tournaments. (although I didn't watch Argentina.............)

I'm loving it, and most of the new countries have done themselves proud.

I just wish third placed teams couldn't get through.

Atmosphere has seemed pretty decent at most of the games I've seen?
