Certain guys have that affect I guess. Soo... 1990's one-team league: good. 2010's one-team league: bad. Makes perfect sense. Quote

UND1983 Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 At this point soccer is like women's hockey for me. When you need to try and convince people of your relevancy, you're not....since we live in the U.S, that is. Quote

With the way Argentina is right now, they could get at least that. They are a mess right now. I'm expecting Iceland to win tomorrow. Quote
