The games start Friday, 6/9! I'm so psyched. I'm ofcourse pulling and rooting for the USA. My other teams are Netherlands, England, and Wales. Wales rarely gets into the tourney though, lol.

I'm really hoping we get to face Mexico in the quarter finals and really hand it to them. I'm still pissed about that match a few months ago in Mexico City. The US National Anthem started and the entire Mexican crowd started chanting "Osama, Osama, Osama!" over and over again. I want to CRUSH them.


GO U S A!

Ha... I'm looking forward to the US vs Italy matchup on the 17th. They've never recovered from Baggio putting that penalty shot on the crossbar years ago. biggrin.gif

Svennis isn't a great manager, anyway I think England will end up with bronze this time. They got the best mid-field players, and if Owen and Rooney can find the goal a medal is waiting.........

I'm surprised they are sticking with Rooney. I think I would've let him rest another week during the first round. England has mad talent with or without him, kind of like what Pele mentioned earlier this week. Don't rush him back because it could really hurt the team.

In the papers over here ,we have pictures of Rooneys foot on the front page,with a message for ppl to touch it so it will heal better...............how f***ing sad is that.

Owen is not 100% fit either .plus Sven has got Walcott in the team ,and he hasn`t even played a match for his team in the league yet.......so how do they know if the BIG stage is goner do him good???????

Lets face it Italy and USA will more then likely make it through the group,as Czech Republic
and Ghana ,both their first World Cup Apperances.......but italy will win over USA ,as we have been champions 3 times ,and USA have only come 3rd once in all the 8 apperances that they have had...so experiance will win. biggrin.gif

I don't know... Italy is tough and all, but USA is ranked 5th overall, or was earlier last month. It'll be interesting.

England needs to find some loophole to get Ryan Giggs on their national team instead of Wales. Then they could do some severe damage... he not the most skilled athlete, one of the best... but he's the smartest player in the world. He's got a good noggin and knows how to move the ball strategically.
