Kopljar isn't just any player—he's something else entirely ☕
I don't see it that way at all—the guy is an absolute beast, especially when you consider his backup comes in and starts dropping seven goals per game like it's nothing 🙏

It’s not about the national team or the players—it's about that incompetent bunch running things on the bench, and that corrupt fat cat sitting up in the stands.
Honestly, I hope they lose by ten and never even make it to New York City.
And if Magic Johnson decided to say goodbye to them at the start of February—well, I wouldn't want to see them ever again. Let some Cop run the play in the next period; they both deserve it.

I get that—really, I do—but it isn't up to me to make it happen. They have to come out swinging from the very first whistle. We can't afford those few minutes of "feeling things out" or those slow, cautious possessions we usually fall into when we play against teams like this.
We need to go straight for the throat right away.
Plus, we absolutely have to increase our defensive aggression—that's clearly where we're struggling. We're being way too soft out there. Honestly, it might be time to bring back that classic Spolaric Dominikovic style of defense:
One guy stays glued to the player, and the other goes low and hits them right in the kidneys.😁
Tomorrow, we absolutely cannot let the refs mess things up for us—we need to head into those last five minutes sitting on a solid 4 or 5-point lead, and then we can just close it out. 👍
I’m really hoping what was said today means Mirko can step up; look, we aren't asking for much from him—if he can just pull off about 30% defense, we'll be in great shape. 🙏
frozentiger6 said:Why do you guys keep saying "it's just Argentina"? That Argentina squad beat Sweden and the Czech Republic—they only lost by a single point against Poland, they're playing out of their minds, and they even landed a solid mid-tier fullback signing for Ciudad Real...
I never actually said it was *only* Argentina—if I were to be more precise, this isn't exactly the level of play you'd see from Denmark or France either.😉
I’m genuinely curious to see how many minutes Pešić actually gets on the floor tomorrow.
I have this nagging gut feeling—just a bad vibe, really—that they're going to try and force Alilovic into the rotation like he's some kind of superstar starter one of these days.☕
I’m honestly curious—where is this influx of Mexican guys coming from on this American forum? 🤷
What is it about this place that makes it better than being back in Mexico?
Anyway, I was just reading Goluzin’s comment about how much we're all supposedly missing Kopljar. 🤦
Personally, I’m actually praying he misses the entire World Cup. The guy is a total liability—he’s tall and powerful, sure, but he has absolutely zero feel for the game. His shooting is just as bad as Lackovic's; I can get up past the entire defense only to have 80% of my shots blocked by the goalie. 🙏
The local guys I follow play in the US third division, and honestly, almost the entire roster—besides maybe two or three veterans—is under 18 or 19 years old. They actually just headed over to Europe for some preseason training in places like the Czech Republic and Germany, but if you ask me, that doesn't really prove much about their actual level 🤷
Jesse Thomas7 said:And you're supposed to be some kind of expert? (and clearly one without a shred of a sense of humor, either). Oh, I have plenty of grounds for a lawsuit—we're talking three different angles here. Honestly, "emotional distress" is the easiest one to pull from; under the law, anyone can sue anyone else on those grounds, it’s just a matter of whether they can actually prove it in court. (Too bad I didn't get an EEG and a blood pressure reading before and after the movie, hahaha). As for this idea that no lawyer would dare touch such a juicy little problem... yeah, I don't buy that for a second. These guys absolutely CRAVE precedents that guarantee massive media coverage; it's basically free advertising for them, which doesn't happen every day....
I do have a sense of humor, it's just that all your arguments on this topic seem incredibly naive to me.
I'm starting to wonder if you're just messing with all of us.
Anyway, I'm washing my hands of this. If people want to keep going, let someone else explain it to them—though I think ruggedjackal46 and a few others already gave some very solid answers as to why you can't just return a movie once you've seen it.👍
