2010 FIFA World Cup

Not the one who follows football normally, but will watch a match or two--especially during World Cup. When I saw who the USA has for first match, I gasped. Generally not knowing who is who, even on my home team, I felt a little better when I saw this:
England have some very strong players but lets be honest, in general they're a dummy team.

I guess on paper Spain are the best team in the world. I think they will take it this time round.

Since my country isn't playing, traditionally, my favorite teams are England and Holland. I like the style of football they are playing. Brazil and Spain are good teams too.
5 more days guys, I'm exited:D Let the games begin...

England haven't exactly had the best track record in the World Cup, but compared to USA...:p

I always follow the World Cup, it's the only time I usually watch football, as well as the UEFA Euro Champions.

I'll be sat firmly in the pub most of next Saturday ;)

World cup 2010

Hi all
I can't wait for the tournament to begin.

Favorites have to be Spain, Brazil, England Holland and Argentina but everything is possible.

I think even the French have a chance -- although they have a great team they probably have the most useless coach in the entire tournament.

England could slip up against the USA but they will surely go through the group stage.

Whatever your team enjoy the greatest world competition on the planet -- from North to South football brings fans from every country in the world into bars etc and lasting friendships are often forged -- i'm stll in regular contact with guys I met in the world cup in France in 1998.


Enpoy everyone.

cheers
jimbo

England v U.S.A, kick off very shortly.

England are the favourites in this game but as we know it's a funny old game that surprises us all.

Here's to hoping the lads do the damage and come away with a convincing victory!

En guard!
