I don't know about bottle. They're just an over rated team who are awfully coached. 

England??? 😁😁😁

Belgium are like England.

Good players on paper, but shit when they get together on the pitch!!!!

Probably down to the managers 

[HybridFox]

All our players back nice and early (apart from Madders I hope)

Seriously though how depressing must it be having that pair as coaches. 

Castagne gets frustrated with Rodgers, can imagine he's similar with Martinez.

When were we knocked out

[Leeds Fox]

Belgium are so rigid.

Without Lukaku their striking options are absolutely dog muck. Batshuayi isn't anywhere near good enough. 

 

CDK has been awful at Milan. 

Mertens is 83.

Lukaku hasn't been a threat for well over a calendar year. 

T. Hazard is a slow, mid table plodder. 

E. Hazard has gone the way of Gareth Bale. 

Batman is a half decent finisher with an extremely mid table all round game. 

Trossard is an 'ok' top-sixish winger. 

Doku is like a poundshop Adama. 

Openda is a fairly average prospect with middling promise. 

 

Behind them Witsel is average, Onana is terrible, Dendoncker is a journeyman, Meunier and Castagne have nowhere near the pace to stretch a game and their favoured two centre backs can probably remember the formation of Belgium. 

 

They're just not very good. Your team is much, much better on paper. Unfortunately for you your manager is much, much worse.

Lukaku looks like he's just done circuit training in a sauna after 7 minutes

[cruzFOX]

I love our Belgian Lester boys but boy is this national side a disappointment. 

[Super_horns]

That is it ..

 

Croats v Canada will be a tight one too .

[foxes_rule1978]

Fully deserved 

[urban.spaceman]

Ouch

[Finnegan]

Imagine if we sack Rodgers and do replace him with Martinez after the WC

[whoareyaaa]

Morroco pretty solid, Belgium poor

[Suzie the Fox]

Hahahahaha

[TJQuik]

Nice

[Balj]

So very happy for Morocco and their fans - totally deserved.

[yorkie1999]

That’s what happens when try to score goals.

[Finnegan]

No jokes, if Wout Faes is on the pitch they do not score that. 100%

Obviously not but showing you can deliver on the biggest stage is clearly a good selling point, no?

You mean like an FA Cup final?

Belgium always look like they're playing straight after a three course Sunday lunch.

 

…  and why not?  They even celebrate this in their footballer statues.

 

 

They may not have a WC or Euros win to commemorate, and yes, the couscous nibblers are sending them home early again, but nobody can play on a belly full of frites like a Belgian.

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Belgium hype needs to stop dead. Crap.

[foxes_rule1978]

Wow big win that and fully deserved
