I mean, today's England vs Wales looks like a domestic match😂 That’s a good question and I don’t know the answer but in practice it has meant that some of our greatest, world class players like George Best, Kenny Dalgliesh, Graham Souness, Ian Rush, etc. have never really had a chance to show what they could do on a world stage for GB. It’s also meant Wales is a one man team. Tonight isn’t England v Wales. It’s England v Gareth Bale. Edited November 29, 20223 yr by DD_Arthur

It's like back when the USSR still existed Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia were allowed to vote in the United Nations even though they were part of the USSR at that time. The Russians must have had some sharp lawyers when the UN charter was written 🤪

So England go through at the top of the table and USA go through in second place! Awesome stuff. Except for one thing... USA now face Holland... (The Netherlands if you like) 🤣 Good luck with that. 😁
December 1, 20223 yr Author World Cup Round of 16 Odds Country Odds to Advance England -450 Netherlands -225 USA +175 Senegal +333 So the bookies think that USA has a reasonable chance against Nederlands. (200 is half way between 225 and 175, so the bookies think USA vs. Nederland is really a +-200 game. i.e. USA has a 1 in 3 chance to win, and a 2 in 3 chance to lose). But they think Senegal needs a miracle to beat England. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

December 1, 20223 yr I'll be watching US vs NL very carefully. If we do our homework against Australia (fuerza, Scaloni!), we'll be facing the winner of that match.

Some of the US team play in the UK Premier League. I can't see then beating Netherlands though to be honest. I'll watch it though and cross my fingers for you guys.
