Football World Cup Draw For Brazil 2014

My comment was based on his international performaces, in the Premier League he's playing against moderate players at best barring the odd one or two quality players.

So there are only one or two quality players in the Premier League?
Sensible comment ........................... not!
Name them both and I'll see whether or not I can think of another one or loads.
Beezerk by name and all that :whistle:.

Slime.
 
I'd love to be having this discussion about Scotland and being sent home (again) after the group stages.I really am quite jealous of you lads who enjoy watching England play football.It's the pinnacle of a sportsman career.And as for the liverpool guy who hates England but loves Liverpool from the safe confines of Leighton Buzzard because 'money has ruined football'...well, I reckon the more astute posters will spot the wee grain of irony.

As for the draw, apart from the quite simply magnificent young lady hosting the event, I thought it would be received better in England?

Italy-reasonable, but not unstoppable..I'd be wondering how Pirlo will cope with the temps in Manuas..stop him,stop Italy.

Uruguay-Two excellent forwards but an ageing defence and playing them in a good climate

Costa Rica-do it for the boys of Italia 90, please.

England to qualify on 7 points.

I'll be supporting England, for my dad and grandad

I was born in Liverpool and grew up in Liverpool until I joined the military.

That's why I support Liverpool and still travel on a regular basis up the motorway for 6/7 hour round trips to watch my team play.

I guess it would have been easy for you to ask why I support Liverpool despite living down south.
 
I'll be in Germany for a bit of their 1st week so looking forward to backing them and the atmosphere that will go with it.

Apart from that it's anyone but Engerlund.

Fancy the Argies to win it.

Haven't heard many people mention Argentina. They've definitely got the players to do it & they'd love to win it in Brazil.
 
You call it a draw. But 'a mostly preconfigured exercise to ensure the countries with the biggest TV audiences get to the later stages of the tournament so FIFA can sell more advertising' would be more accurate. I don't think they use warm balls to separate out the teams, but if it came out that FIFA did this it would not overly surprise me with their track record.

Told you ;)
