DiscoVolante said:Same predictions apart from Netherlands/Portugal then @VBM398! Let's hope your Ronaldo and our Ibrahimovic can save their respective teams ;)
RC7 said:Btw it's Football not Soccer.
RC7 said:My money's on The Netherlands, it's about time they won a major tournament. Spain will be too tired I feel and although you should never look to friendlies as a benchmark, their 1-0 win against China was poor. The German's will be in the mix as they always are. Btw it's Football not Soccer.

'About time' he says!! Very funny. You think youre overdue a tournament after a pathetic 24 years. If you said we will win just one tournament in my lifetime I would bite your hand off.
RC7 said:He's saying as an Englishman 46 years is a long wait for a trophy. I'm not sure many people would argue we are some of, if not the most passionate football fans in the world. We have two of the most revered football clubs ever, in Man Utd and Liverpool and several other clubs who have competed at the top level of world football. Combine that with the fact we are primarily responsible for football's profile in the 21st century (whether you think that's good or bad) and the fact Italy, France, Spain and Germany have all experienced far more international success than we have you'd forgive us for being slightly gutted.
I personally think that refusing England the world cup is the biggest kick in the balls. Forget the Olympics, a world cup in England would be the greatest show on earth. Home to some of the greatest teams and stadia in World football with a heritage Qatar could not buy with a hyper trillion dollars.

80 hours to an opening game to really get the juices flowing - Poland v Greece!
Good to get the least attractive game out of the way first I suppose. Just praying that Greece dont somehow win as they will easly be able to park the bus in the other games for 2 draws to go through. An awful team to watch and sooner theyre out the better. The problem is England are basing their entire game plan on the Greek model. But if tedious 1-0 smash and grabs deliver then bugger it - I'm in.

As Roy Hodgson takes the England squad for a
boat trip, he finds a huge turd. "Someone's sh*t
on the deck", he shouts. "Yeah", replies Andy
Carroll, "but I'm better with two wingers."
