The WORLD CUP thread
 

All chat of football in here please :D

Can a mod sticky this?

Do we really stand any chance????

I've drawn Saudi Arabia in the draw at work might have had more fun setting fire to five pounds.
:roll:

NO!!! (Please)

Yes...beat Paraguay and Trinidad...draw against Sweden...
Should beat either Germany Or Poland....

Easy job

Also at work we have a few lads down from our factory in Scotland doing some training for a few months so yesterday we played England the album all afternoon they really liked it in the end. :lol:

I've got my quid on Italy in the office sweep stakes. I hope the football teams more reliable than the electrics on a Duke, or I'm out of pocket!

England will actually know who wins the other group before they play Sweden.

I got England, USA, Brazil and costa rica in my draw at work

I think we can win it

i agree. need a bit of luck along the way, all winning teams do, i'd say we're due a bit of good fortune. but luck aside i feel we've a great chance. a very good goalkeeper, back 4 are solid, midfield i'd say is in the top 3 strongest midfields in the tournament. we could be weak upfront if rodney doesn't play, but then it could be an opportunity for somebody else to step up to the plate.

win or runners up in our group, i'd fancy our chances against anybody in group A (most likely to be poland or germany), i don't think we'd face brazil til the final, but who cares, bring them on too.
