The Gaffer on
Norway
World Cup 2026 ยท Pre-tournament verdict
The Gaffer says
โRight, listen son, Norway's ceiling is proper sky-high with Haaland banging 'em in and Odegaard pulling the strings โ that's a quarter-final outfit on a good day, no danger. My honest worry, mate? The defence is a bit dodgy and they ain't been to a big tournament in donkey's years, so bottle's untested. Verdict: Dark horses, but I ain't backing 'em deep.โ
After they went out
โCalled it months ago, Norway crumble on penalties, and my telly nearly wore my cuppa.โ
