Spain for me, I wouldn't be disappointed if Argentina win it.

I quite fancied Portugal as a dark horse until Ronaldo started throwing grenades this week, 12/1 a decent bet they have some amount of talent.
Brazil or France would be more steady bets tho both look really strong be who plays the conditions better I think

As I type the news is reporting a human rights organisation reporting another 25 work related deaths in recent months related to Qatar WC infrastructure projects. It is so very very difficult to reconcile my love for the beautiful game and an obvious desire to watch it's biggest tournament with this utter utter car crash of a choice of host.
However this world cup works out on the pitch, be it the best ever or the worst ever FIFA must never again allow their greed and stupidity to trump common sense and their responsibility as custodians of the world's most popular game to put human dignity and human rights before profit. They have done nothing less than bring football into disrepute and once this is done serious questions need to be asked as to whether they have given up the right to run the game. As things stand the answer to that is pretty obvious.

Uruguay have a strong squad. Can't see past Brazil. France's midfield is under strength, full options and they'd be hard to beat but retaining it is some ask. As for the tournament, can't get excited and don't plan to watch it. Football just wasn't supposed to be like this. FIFA are just abhorrent.

"Nothing matters at all, the needle returns to the start of the song and we all sing along like before". I was impressed by the BLM approach in F1 and in football, but it all seems a bit poor to attend now.

The winner of the Argentina Brazil semi will go on and beat France or Spain in the final (according to my predictor)
"Outsider" - Senegal

Qatar are hiring people to pretend to be fans and build the atmosphere up for the World Cup

Another few weeks of totally pointless interviews filling all the column inches/bandwith that the editors need to fill, here's this insightful bit of journalism from Sam Vokes on the BBC website in the Wales camp;
There has been a lot of questions about people playing and picking up knocks over the last few weeks.There have been conversations about Gareth Bale's fitness for the last couple of years, but whenever he turns up for a Wales camp, and we've seen it in the last two play-offs, that he produces.
I don't think there needs to be a question about his fitness. When he puts that Wales shirt on it is 100% Gareth Bale and that is what you get.
Fascinating Sam. But what's the actual point of what youve said?

Are all the videos of actors dressed up as fans of various nations legit or is it part of some advertising campaign and the internet is doing a bit of mischief making?

I'm actually surprised at the lack of hype I have seen so far down here, usually talking about its coming home.
Do have an 11 fold for Monday to Friday with all the favourites on paper at 29-1 with a 30 pound bet on.
Teams in caps is who I have.
ENGLAND vs Iran
ARGENTINA vs Saudi
DENMARK vs Tunisia
FRANCE vs Australia
GERMANY vs Japan
SPAIN vs Costa Rica
BELGIUM vs Canada
PORTUGAL vs Ghana
BRAZIL vs Serbia
NETHERLANDS vs Ecuador
ENGLAND vs Usa
I understand football don't work like that and someone will probably let me down.
