Italy are relying on a pensioner and a mental center forward, have some faith

The same pensioner that will piss all over our midfield.

We're also relying on Roy Hodgson to come up with a tactical plan. Hard to have faith in a man who had less know how than a pundit in the Honduras game.

Pirlo stands no chance tracking back to defend against this man all game.

Can't see England beating Italy. 1-1 or 2-1 to Italy, imo.

Hopefully I'm totally wrong and England win the tournament.

Italy will defend themselves to the top positions with two wins and one tie, Uruguay has a great offence which will lead them to the second position with 1 definite win, one well fought win and one tie, which will leave England as the grim position of third and a win over Costa Rica and two losses.

Costa Rica doesn´t stand a chance, this group is too much for them. We might see very ugly numbers in their matches. Their stat will probably be 0-0-3.

we'll draw with Italy, beat Costa Rica and I really can't call Uruguay... 4 points might be enough, though.

Uruguay are a bit over rated really.. Apart from Godin they've got no real strength in defence and their midfield is hardly filled with world beaters.. We'll come up against a rusty Suarez too playing his first game since his op. Will be a great game against Italy though, two pretty evenly matched sides.

Whenever Suarez has come back from an injury or long term suspension for us he has just picked up from where he left off

If Cavani turns up for Uruguay, which is a BIG IF, him and Suarez together would be lethal.

I'm worried about Godin. This guy has locked down the likes of Messi this season. I can see Rooney/Sturridge struggling with him.

Pitch makes no difference when you play football like we do.

Beast. The rumour of us after Miranda, good defender, but rather have Godin.

Not sure if Durham is a fantastic troll or clueless.

I was at Wembley when Henderson made his debut vs France, think Carroll was making his debut too, don't think Henderson made another appearance for about two years he was that bad.. How times change.

Brendan has changed his career, he was trying to get rid of him to Stoke when he first came in but look at what a fine specimen he has created. Pirlo's OAP legs won't be able to cope with Hendo tonight.
