World Cup 2014

[Redder Lurtz]

The slackness on here is worrying - wall charts anyone?

[manwiththestick]

Never mind wall charts, I want car window flags.

[Adebisi]

Really looking forward to it simply because it means plenty of footy on over the summer and before you know it, the transfer market is open and it's almost pre-season. A South American tournament should be pretty special too. 

I want England to do well for our lads. Even though I don't give two hoots about England, I'm sure they do and doing well in the tournament benefits them and us.   

[KevieG]

It won't happen but a front six of gerrard Henderson barkley; lallana sterling sturridge would be the way to go. Woy will probably go with a tried and trusted 4-4-2 with wellbeck on the wing.

[Tony Moanero]

Steven Gerrard is England captain and as such, I want England to do well. Bollocks to all the "Ingurland" haters.

[Bjornebye]

Good chance to see how Barkley would fit into our team 

[Russ Atmosphere]

Why would that be helpful?

[Bjornebye]

Why would that be helpful?

 

Because you have got aids

Brazil have foolishly included shit like Paulinho rather than Coutinho. Phil must have mixed up Paul and Cout.

[Dr. J]

Just watched the convocation for the Brazil squad. There had been some speculation that Coutinho would be a surprise call but he wasn't, although Oscar was - how long has he been dropped by Mourinho? Pity for Coutinho, although he hasn't been all that great this season - would have nice to have someoneon the Brazil squad.

[Bjornebye]

Brazil can fuck off then 

[A Red]

Belgium for me as long as they pick Hertz van Rental

[DanDanShaw]

No love for Coutinho in the Brazil squad.  Lucas isn't in either, but probably doesn't deserve it.  Shame about Phil though.

[Brigant Moloch]

Lack of Lucas is a surprise only for someone who has no clue at all, like Tim Sherwood or Chevy Chase, been clear since day one he won't be in the squad, 785 better players is his position. Shame for Phil but it's typical Scolari - he has his favourites and goes with trusted players, still plenty of time for our Cou.

[DanDanShaw]

I'm not surprised about Lucas, or even Coutinho to be honest but the latter deserves it.

[TheHowieLama]

The only way this thread is going to get people in the mood and take off is if someone gets a vuvuzuela loop on autoplay.

here you go Lutz, 

 

Even though i will be supporting them I think England will be home after 3 matches. Think Italy might win it but would like to see Uruguay or Chile.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Trinidad and Tobago? We'll smash 'em.

[Tony Moanero]

Roy Hodgson is a pranny.

Unbelievable! Have you forgotten than the formidable Roy Hodgson is the England manager? Hodgson's methods have translated from Halmstads to Malmo to Orebo to Neuchatel Xamax to the Swiss National team. He will piss the World Cup.

[ZonkoVille77]

The only reason for watching the world cup is to make a few quid. It's a fuckin shite tournament these days.

[JagSquared]

How brazil can still regularly be playing Jo and Fred upfront is beyond me. Do they not make strikers anymore?

[Bjornebye]

Italy wont win it at all

[alles ist gut]

Trinidad and Tobago? We'll smash 'em.

Crouchamania will run w...

 

Is this a repeat?

[KMD7]

If we don't win the league I'd like Stevie to lift the WC. Otherwise it's the Argies or Uruguay
