My WC predictions - revisited



I think they’ve been pretty accurate so far.

1. You can dispute the level of opposition Messi had done it against so far but that’s why I specified this level. While the WC is great, much of it isn’t the highest level of football but he’s proven to be still a level above most players.

2. Ok, he didn’t score against both Congo & Uzbekistan but that double against Uzbekistan meant Ronaldo would not be dropped and the rest proved to be correct.

3. 7 goals would usually be enough to win or get close to a golden boot but unless Norway beat England it’s unlikely he’ll get it. Quarter finals is deep in the tournament imo.

4. TBC

Most of mine were crap but England still alive and said one south american by the QFs. We shall see today.

If Senegal hadn't collapsed to Belgium i think they would have been looking at a QF.

Process you'd have gotten very short odds on the already undropable Ronaldo not being dropped

I agree although there was a lot of noise after the Congo game, if he drew another blank against Uzbekistan then who knows what would have happened.

The Sweaties let me down by not getting out of the group phase. Sweden didn’t go as far as I thought they would either.

Then I remembered, Lindelof was in their defence.

I had Mbappe as top scorer and France winning it. Not exactly risky picks I know.

I said England would go out in last 8 which could still happen. However such is the draw and the fact I didnt expect it to be Norway we'd be facing we could now go further I guess.

Senegal were my dark horse so that one didnt go great.

I also had Turkey topping their group and they came 4th. Terrible.

Norway will be a tough game. Hard to call, best side we’ll have face so far, but I expect a narrow win. Against Spain or France, can’t see it. Anyone else I’d fancy chances.
