:fifa_logo:šŸ† The Qatar World Cup 2022

So it looks like it’ll only possibly be (at worst)

Salisu
ABK
Moi
Moussa

Everyone else stays at home to play with Nat ?

That’s pretty good … a 6 week pre-season with pretty much 100% attendance?

My mistake … Mali not going to Qatar

Don’t think Norway qualified. Just going to be our centre back pairing that miss the boot camp.

Just as well we are solid at the back and keep loads of clean sheets.

Marginally less meh than I expected tbh

Shame KWP got crocked think he would have had a good chance to go as double FB cover, but JWP doesn’t deserve it.
Wilson Maddison and on current form, Rashford all deserve to be there

I like Bellingham and Rice in centre mid and Maddison is in good form.
Grealish, Sterling, Kane, Saka, Foden. Plenty of threat there.
However. Henderson, Dier, Maguire, all shit.
Phillips injured all season. Shaw will probably get crocked and Trent can’t defend.

Really? On current form?

Always seems to do ok for England. I would definitely have him in the squad.

I would rather play Walker at centre back than Maguire or Dyer. That just about sums up how shite our defensive options are.

Yeah, but OK won’t be good enough

I know that. I don’t think we will get past the quarters.

Well, it’ll never sit right with me, so I will be sitting this one out. It really will be tough. The World Cup has always been a good family event for me; I’m not pleased about not being able to enjoy it.

But that’s small beer compared to what these poor people were put through, even the survivors. I can’t watch the games without seeing the ghosts.

Genuine question.
Did you feel the same way about the WC in Russia?
What were your vibes?

Different times šŸ¤·šŸ¼

Doha Fan zone

This salad is £9

As for beer you have to queue up at the One stand that sells it - you and 40,000 others

You cannot buy it until 7pm (so that is 7 hours after it opens)

You are restricted to 4 beers per person which would suggest everyone has to spend over an hour in the queue to get a drink

That said 4 beers is enough when you consider the only alcoholic drink on site is Bud

One of our Dxb Krew Founding Members is chronicaling his "WC Trip from Dubai to Qatar on Twitter.
Tickets were easy (always are for ExPats) for all 3 group games. He saw that accomoation and decided against spending nearly 2 weeks in it
Flights were over $2000 at time of ticket sales (30 minute flight) but they launched a Shuttle Service came down to $250

Then he needed a ā€œVisaā€
The gang all applied, the Leader - like many opted for the Mobile App version, rest got PDF’s to print out.
The Visa was downloaded - file corrupted - as are the majority of them apparently.
Several hours on the phone to the call centre.
The new ones will be available the day before England’s first game. So many fans coming in a day earlier may well be screwed.
