World Cup

[Siouxsie]

Before anyone gets at me for starting this topic I know there is a thread about the world cup somewhere but i cant find it. I just want to ask is anyone as excited as i am (I love the world cup) COME ON ENGLAND !!!

[BB-Rocks]

Im excited. I love it:spin2:

[Siouxsie]

got it all to look forward to :spin::spin::spin::spin:

[BB-Rocks]

Yeah i know. I take you will be supporting England?

[Mike]

Being a football addict who watches everyone game on TV and goes to lots of games i'm hardly going to miss the world cup, i think we stand a good chance of winning the tournament i want it to be an England v Germany final.

[BigSister]

I cant wait for it

[Siouxsie]

wonder what the first game will be ? Lets take a bet ?

[Dan_]

Costa Rica vs Germany think it is.

Hear that Michael Owen might not be fit enough to play 90 mins.

[BigSister]

ours is against Paraguay I think
Lets just hope that Rooney doesnt get injured too:bawling:

[cc100]

Typical England- we all get excited, and then they probably end up losing in the second round.

[Jay]

Not long now let's just hope we can keep our best players injury free

[BigSister]

Looks like Ledley King could be out lets hope he gets better fast

[sol]

Cant wait for it, I hope that we win :bouncy:

[x-heather-x]

im excited too:bouncy:

ill be supporting Brazil:hello::hello::hello:

[cc100]

Michael Owen is a big worry- he needs to be fit if we are to do well.

I cant see it myself.

[InTheHood]

Netherlands :dance:

Although we have the toughest group and anything can happen :blush2:

[InTheHood]

UK?

[BB-Rocks]

Its England no not the UK. If they win the UK wont get mentioned ..

[James]

It's getting a bit depressing for Scotland not qualifying for these international tournaments, with all the World Cup hype.

Well, at least we have the Kirin Cup to look forward to! :wink::rolleyes::hugesmile:

And why should the UK be mentioned? Its an English team of English players?

Im all for the UK, but in this sport, we are 4 separate nations.

[Tanser_Man]

Got to be England's year!

Can't see us getting beaten in the first three games. Then if we go through we have either Poland or Germany, neither of these teams are anything to worry about.

I'd say quarter finals is a cert, we just need to stay clear of brazil untill the final!

[No1MakosiFan]

I not really bovvered about the world cup. Football is boring.

[Tanser_Man]

Face... bovverrrred. :shocked:

Anyway, you don't need to like it, but i'd say 80% of the population will be there cheering us on.

England world cup squad

Provisional squad:
Robinson (Tottenham), James (Manchester City), Green (Norwich); G Neville (Manchester United), Ferdinand (Manchester United), Terry (Chelsea), Cole (Arsenal), Campbell (Arsenal), Carragher (Liverpool), Bridge (Chelsea), Beckham (Real Madrid), Carrick (Tottenham), Lampard (Chelsea), Gerrard (Liverpool), Hargreaves (Bayern Munich), Jenas (Tottenham), Downing (Middlesbrough), J Cole (Chelsea), Lennon (Tottenham), Rooney (Manchester United), Owen (Newcastle), Crouch (Liverpool), Walcott (Arsenal).

Standby:
Carson (Liverpool), Young (Charlton), Reo-Coker (West Ham), Defoe (Tottenham), Johnson (Crystal Palace).

3 suprises in Downing, Walcott and Lennon. I think Jenas/Hargreaves could have made way for another striker, not sure about Johnson being on standby either.

[Kore]

Same here.

I like some football, but im not a massive fan like!

[BigSister]

thanks Kore and if Scotland wales and N ireland/Republic were in i would be cheering them too

[cc100]

Its a great squad. Sven has actually made a bold move by putting Lennon, Walcott and Downing in. This shows that he is going to try and go out with a bang.

Still, lets hope Rooney and Owen are fit enough.

[InTheHood]

1-0 to the Oranje, 1-0 to the Oranje :dance::wink:

[GlitterEyes]

I think for England to win it they need to drop Lampard and play Carrick with Gerrard. It is unfair asking gerrard to sit back all the time just because Lamps cant defend. Owen is also looking rather poor.

i am, i've watched 6 world cup's (1990 being my favourite) (94 being a turnip)
i've never been so confident for england's chances of winning, as long as we have rooney in the team we can beat anyone, without him we have no chance.
only england, spain or brazil are good enough to lift this trophy which give's us a 1 in 3 chance.
