You Liverpool fans might not be so happy if he's fresh as a daisy and sunning himself in Spain come the start of the season.:)

Our pre season tour will be over in Asia and then the states I believe not Spain :thup:

Well I'm confused why you would want to bring the Independence of Scotland into a thread about the World Cup and England ?

Because there is nothing to say I can't?And something that was meant as tongue in cheek and probably accepted as such by most flies directly over your head, which came as no surprise to me.

From BBC Website
Wayne Rooney welcomes improvements to the ball for this year's World Cup compared to the Jabulani design used in 2010.
The Brazuca - manufactured by Adidas - is being used by players at England's training camp in Portugal ahead of the start of the World Cup.
"It really did take a long time to get used to the Jabulani because there would be times when the ball was coming into the box for a header, you jump to try and time it and it would just swerve off. This one, I haven't seen any of that happening this time."

I'd have thought it would take a long time to get used to it because he spent most of the world cup trying to avoid the damned thing! Maybe this year he's intending to get close to it?

we win the World Cup, gloats ridiculously like we're the best thing since sliced bread. The scots and all other home nations get even more bitter, and the vote becomes a white wash. There's a link there if you look hard enough.

That at forum chat was more about sensible causes for the split than footy when I last looked, so I'd say it was better on here than there.

Reading the Evening Standard (London rag) and they had some top surgeon in there saying with keyhole surgery, serious rehab etc it could be as little as four weeks and he could play against England. Clearly he'll be lacking match fitness and the logical suggestion would be to rest him and use him once Uruguay get out of the group. Still reckon they'll play him as a sub and he'll get a flukey winner

Hoping we are a hard to beat team who can pinch a goal but can't see us getting out of the group to be honest. Hope to be proven wrong but can't see us troubling any of the big boys.

Suarez doesn't score flukey goals only raspers!

Rain stopped golf today, so took the chance to watch Soccer AM - love that programme. I could feel the world cup fever building and my anticipation and expectations along with it. My head says "not a chance" but my heart says "we're gonna win the world cup"...looks like I'll be putting a wallchart up again :cheers:
