Hey guys! As you may know, The World Cup is here. What team are you rooting for?
I'm rooting for Germany
England but there's no hope! Any team but Germany, Argentina or Uruguay!
England of course strangely enough with me being English. :)
With Roy in charge I can tell you we will definately be organised and every player will know their exact role in every situation, as from his Fulham days (I still wish he was with us), especially through our amazing Europa League cup run, we were immense, I hope that in someway translates with England, if it does we may suprise a few.
However I hope the refs are not as biased as they were in favour of Brazil today though, was shocking, especially that decision for the penalty. I dont think Brazil are as good as everyone makes them out to be (cue them now winning it), and I hope they dont get added help next time.
Im guessing you are German then MTSuonare.
Im rooting for Team USA as always. They have no chance this time though.
Tomorrow the rematch of the 2010 final.
My country Netherlands vs Spain.
Im predicting a 0-4 sweep for the spanish.
3 red cards for the dutch, after wich Van Gaal murders the referee.
England will go out in round one for sure lol. as always! :p
Maybe someday Fifa will change the rules so that they can have foreigners play for them.
Works wonders for them in the premier league!
(just joking with yall, but you gotta admit England been super weak for a long time)
Oh no, dont bring up FIFA with that corrupt buffon that is Sepp Blatter, with all his puppets. The faster he's out the door, the better. At the moment, and for many years Fifa has been such a farce, why its been allowed to be run that way for soo long, and getting away with it, i'll never know.
@Rob - Overrated, not weak. England have always been a good team, it's just been a while since we've been a great team. Same goes for a lot of other nations but we're naive idiots over here and always seem to expect more than we should.
OT I'll be supporting England, I think Brazil will win it (fairly or otherwise) & I've put a cheeky fiver on Belgium cos the odds were decent plus Hazard :o
@Alexa... Agreed, Brazil are not as good as they're made out to be. Bit of a double edged sword! Have the home fans backing them but immense pressure to do well!
@Rob... Still reeling from 1-1 2010? :P Green slipped up and let 1 in! And in terms of group results we were dead even, USA scored more goals but also let more in :) You guys were then knocked out by Ghana LOL... Admittedly we were battered by Germany but heh... Germany vs Ghana... No contest!
England have the third most valuable team in terms of how much they're insured for, must say something...
if, this year, players from other countries to stop and get on their bus ... and not France, then France ... the winner!
here, we believe in the coach, but not the players .... which are almost the same as in South Africa
Exactly, we're overrated. Good but nowhere near as good as we're always made out to be. That could change though, not this WC but maybe for the next one - lot of impressive youngsters who play direct attacking football and are improving quickly at club level (Barkley, Ox, Sterling, Lallana..)
The problem with the last generation of England players is they were never greater than the sum of their parts. Gerrard, Lampard and Beckham were world class for their clubs, a fantastic midfield on paper and they achieved nothing. Rooney has been chronically overrated since day 1.
Too many liabilities atm; Wilshere is possibly the most overhyped player ever, he's useless & when Smalling, Phil Jones, Johnson and Welbeck are in the international squad you know it is not your year :(
Sterling and Barkley are looking good.
