I wonder how the US team will be impacted. It feels important for their group to have him on the pitch. @starsnstripesfc

Christian Pulisic is OUT of today's USA vs Australia clash. @PaulTenorio and @FelipeCar with the latest here nytimes.com/athletic/live-…

@henrywinter @sportsagentspod I understand the “let’s not get carried away” talk. But if England can't get us carried away at a World Cup, what's the point? Those first 15 minutes of the second half had shades of England against the Dutch at Euro 96.

Has Thomas Tuchel FINALLY made England FUN again? Enjoyed doing this on England with Mark and Gabby for @sportsagentspod #ENG #FIFAWorldCup

@barneyronay Before the tournament began I wrote that England at the World Cup would not be Joga Bonito. Those first 15 minutes of the 2nd half were not that, they were something better. an intense, unrelenting wave of attacking play that although I have not seen from England felt like them.

Garethism is dead. Long live our intense gangly German overlord who doesn’t really care how you feel theguardian.com/football/2026/…

@usmntonly Coming from outside the US I’ve always hated I Believe We Will Win after last week I had to ask myself why.

@stoolpresidente I’ve always hated I Believe We Will Win. After the game last Friday I had to ask myself why.

And don’t say “I believe we will win…” because that’s the dumbest stupidest chant of all time. It holds the US back and anybody who sings it is a loser
English
@starsnstripesfc Songs are great part of supporting a team but what happens on the pitch is always more important than the songs off of it. That being said, I always hated ‘I Believe We Can Win’
English
@ChesnoidGaming I don’t think we can be mad about the ad money, we have seen the monetization of the game down to shirt sleeve sponsers. What we should be angry about is how FIFA is using the gusie of player safety. How do we trust they will make choices in the best interest of the game

Also, it only happened because the hydration break killed Bosnia's momentum and Switzerland made a triple sub with full instructions for the whole squad but you know, FIFA/FOX gotta make that ad revenue 🤷♂️

.@_DeclanRice is better at corners than @LewisHamilton

The R9 stepover. The Cruyff turn. The Zidane roulette. The Declan Rice inswinging corner.

@AP Hydration breaks existed before. The anger is not about the breaks.

FIFA’s new hydration breaks were implemented to help players stay cool in what could be the hottest World Cup in history. But these mandatory pauses have sparked criticism. apnews.com/article/fifa-w…

How the fuck did this South Africa team get to a world cup?

Looks cold there Ian, make sure you hydrate!

World Cup thoughts from the Big Apple

@starsnstripesfc Just give them to the hydration break ™ for them to regroup.

For some context - Qatar v Switzerland....attracted almost double CBS's audience for the UEFA Champions League final. Even Australia v Turkey, which finished at 2am on the East Coast attracted over three-times the average EPL game in the US.

@njh287 It’s a difficult concept because in get what you’re saying how does the new fan understand that Austria is better than Jordan. Maybe some of the intrigue should be fans discovering who is good and who they like rather than thinking they need to know who to root for.
English
I hear everyone saying the FIFA world soccer rankings are meaningless. Most rankings are! (Week 1 CFB AP rankings!). But it gives some directional info for a novice fan that would be surprised to learn that, like, The Netherlands are a top global team, for example
English
@samesfandiari There’s still a money grab. It has nothing to do with the extra teams though.
English
Before the World Cup started, I was quasi annoyed they went to 48 teams.
Felt like a money grab the way CFb playoff and March madness expansion are. They are definitely still that, but I can’t say I’m not enjoying the hell out of it. 4 games a day. Celebrations all day long. Great summer time stuff
English
@clarkh1963 @njh287 But not the same way cfb rankings do. I think if you were to give fans a choice between ending the year at world ranked 1 or beating thier biggest national team rival there would be no contest.
English
@Lowblockparty @njh287 They mean a lot. Not everything, but definitely give perspective.
English
@TheKostos I like how US fans just love it all. Sports are supposed to be fun!
