  1. Poland much better then previous 3 games. Stop teasing me that they might sneak this
  2. I watched Iran with my mate Sam in an Waxys Leicester Square. US game I was in another pub with other people. Wales game, Sam and I reunited and went back to Waxys. Now I'm not travelling an hour into central and going to Waxys on a Sunday night with work tomorrow. Instead I'm meeting Sam local and replacing Waxy's with another Irish pub in O'Neils. I feel like this should be enough to secure the win...
  3. I'd trade a high profile player in squad now for peak Ashley Cole. Cole was the only player who turned up for tournaments that era
  4. Kane obviously gets into 2002 side. But it hard because it was all 442 back then. Our wide players wouldn't fit and vice verse. Would Beckham fit into our 433 now
  5. Southgate would have to win WC to beat everyone else combined then. So not super likely. It's that 90's/00's record that is really bad. Especially as it wasn't like we didn't have decent players. Euro2000 was a bad tournament but now I look back at that team and think it was pretty good. Seaman, G Neville, Adams, Campbell, P Neville; Beckham, Ince, Scholes, McManaman; Shearer & Owen
  6. Was just thinking that. He's won 5 knockouts. Today would be 6th if succesful. We must be in territory of he's won more knockout games then every previous English manager combined
  7. There's enough in the US team to be excited about for 4 years time though. Enough to be optimistic of a good home soil WC
  8. If not England, then Messi winning would be nice but I also wouldn't mind Netherlands winning too. Would be their first WC finally, and with what Van Gaal's gone through recently and it being his last job before retirement, it would be a lovely story. Anyone else winning can get in the bin though
  9. Noway Argentina don't score a third here. Australia given up defending and Australia not good enough to build a proper attack
  10. US gave it a go but not enough quality up top or at the back. Good game though. And hopefully a sign of things to come in these knockouts. Holland/Argentina should be a good match up
  11. What is Reyna's natural/preferred position? Feel like he should have been starting for US
