@UruguayanHeroes None of those teams scare me.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@UruguayanHeroes More to the point, did you watch Iraq against the same toothless Spain reserves whom Uruguay face on Matchday 3?

Then R32 tie v Austria or Algeria.

Then R16 v Colombia or Croatia.

Then QF v Belgium or Germany.

Winning that dead rubber v Spain opens up a great pathway.

@UruguayanHeroes Rochet
Araujo - Josema - Olivera - Piquerez
Ugarte
Valverde - Bentancur
Cannobio - Darwin - Maxi Araujo

@TheModerateCase Garbage.

Floyd was killed by a cop using unlawful force.

Nowak was killed by a criminal who was convicted of murder and jailed.

The US murder rate is 5.55 times higher than the UK one.

The only people tweeting about this are trying to score racist points out of a tragedy.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@RealJamesWoods And when he assaulted the police officer, the police officer was trying to stop Robinson from battering his own girlfriend.

Do you really think that the British like - or would ever vote for - scum like him?

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@RealJamesWoods Firstly, “Robinson” is a serial convicted criminal. Assault, headbutting, assaulting a police officer, mortgage fraud, using another person’s passport to enter the USA.

Secondly the white victim of the Sikh killer was one of those Polish immigrants whom he wanted to “re-migrate”

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@elonmusk Utter claptrap as usual from Musk.

The killer was a conservative Sikh, not a “leftist”.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@MattWalshBlog Really?

The Sikh offender was from 7 generations of British nationals.

The Polish victim was the son of immigrants.

Who was the “indigenous” one?

I’d bet my house that the Polish victim watched Polish TV at home, went to a Polish church and didn’t follow British sport or TV.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@UruguayanHeroes @NealGardner_ Forlan 2010 / Suarez 14&18 / Cavani 14&18 = 9/10

Suarez 2010 / Cavani 2010 / Darwin 2026 = 8/10

But Abreu was Aguirre level, worse than Vinas.

And there was no Valverde or Bentancur or Ugarte or Maxi Araujo or Olivera.

This is a better team overall.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@UruguayanHeroes @Nicohv23 The squad hasn’t got enough number 9’s.

I’d pick Alvaro Rodriguez.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@UruguayanHeroes 45 days to the Final

41 days to the Semi-Final.

36 days to the Quarter-Final.

32 days to the Round of Sixteen.

Any chance of playing them, he should remain in the squad.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@elonmusk The brown person was a 7th generation UK national.

The white victim was a 2nd generation child of immigrants with no British culture but white skin.

Well done Elon, you’ve proved the point about racism.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@UruguayanHeroes It depends upon the draw

Probably a Round of 32 exit

But the only teams which can win this World Cup are France, Spain, Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay

If they can play like when they won at the Bombinera and beat Brazil they can win it. If the stars stay fit and avoid red cards

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@Mathew1norma @PaulineHansonOz No mandate?

Labor have the biggest mandate for decades: 94 seats out of 150.

And with the coalition in disarray, if they called an election tomorrow, Labor would win more than 100 seats.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@PaulineHansonOz “If the people ever choose to make me Prime Minister”?

Let’s just say, I don’t think you need to waste much time preparing for that to happen.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@RealJamesWoods Don’t listen to that jailbird thug.

The violence in Paris was an out-of-control celebration of a seismic soccer victory.

Nothing to do with race or religion.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@UruguayanHeroes 3-1-3-3 would be:

Olivera - Josema - Araujo
Ugarte
Bentancur - Valverde - De Arrascaeta
M Araujo - Darwin - Canobbio

That is effectively one extra player on the field compared with 4-3-3.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@UruguayanHeroes Uruguay has only ever played half- Bielsa ball.

It has been 4-3-3, not 3-1-3-3.

Now he has them for a full month before the knockout stage begins. If he can get them high-pressing like Chile 2010 but with more quality, the sky is the limit.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@UruguayanHeroes Uruguay has a huge element of surprise this time, because 9 players play in South America and another 4 in Concacaf.

Outside Araujo, Josema, Olivera, Fede, Ugarte, Bentancur and Darwin, the other outfield players will barely have been scouted by the likes of Spain.

[David Furrows @DavidF1969]

@UruguayanHeroes This is the big problem.

Rodrigo Aguirre is going to be out of his depth, and Vinas will only score v minnows.

There should have been Alvaro Rodriguez here. I would actually start him in the big matches and use Darwin’s pace and power off the bench against hot & tired defenders
