Fox attack. I thought it was fucking real until I saw that. It is a fake right?

I have no idea what the hell to do after tomorrow. I've spent half the year being a dick. I don't remember what kind of poster I used to be. You've gone too far now. You can't go back. Just enjoy the moment when Emile William Ivanhoe Heskey slots home the 5th. That reminds me of a certain game...

Aye I thought Toulalan was good. Infact I've always been impressed when I've seen him play...

From what I saw of all the West Africans in the ACoN they will all struggle up against a team that is merely cohesive and tactically sound.

I've been doing the same for the last couple of weeks mate - from what I've heard they're happy to take your business in blind ignorance for the most part. F'kin hell, I've been thinking you were in your twenties for some reason. Really? £10 on South Korea, Argentina and England tomorrow - risk taker me like... Pays £52.30

The thing about the World Cup no matter how dissapointing a game is you know there's 3 more to redeem it the next day.

The noise really doesn't annoy me anymore tbh, I just tune them out completely for the most part. What is bad and what somebody else mentioned in this thread is the way they destroy a proper atmosphere developing. Instead of chanting and the roar when a chance happens all you get is the constant droaning of the horns - it's boring if anything.

We won 10-1 in 1950 anyway

Oh well, nice 5 points for Abidal - all is not lost with the French.

That would have been carnage. They'd have been the perfect partnership (in theory).

Well that's a bit, ruthless

I'm looking forward to the Greece - South Korea game tbh. Korea should win because Greece are like they were in 2004 (boring), the only difference being they're also s*** and don't win. I can see the Korean's just outpacing and outrunning them in midfield.

Would have rather seen Ireland than that France team. What a stupid cunt Domenech is, why can't he just play people in their natural positions... Gignac out wide ffs. Absolutely turgid game.

Aye Abidal at CB, he was taken to play that position. Used to play there when he was at Lille.

Cannot believe Nacho's in there like. They've dropped their hyped up kid Lodeiro for him.

http://www.zonalmarking.net/2010/06/08/usa-world-cup-2010-tactics/ Can't remember who posted it first, but that is such a good site. I posted it a couple of days ago It is a cracking site. Hadn't seen the US had been put up yet like, cheers. Just spent an hour there. Great site. Wish they could be bothered to write a more coherent review of South Korea, but oh well.

Howard is really the only player that would get in the England team. Donovan would make the bench. EDIT: Although Donovan playing behind Rooney would be a nice partnership.

tbh this is one of the worst WC incarnations of England in ages bar the manager, I have no idea why they're all so optimistic. Meh, it's better than the '02 and '06 teams. Like you said, it's the manager why we're all optimistic. In Capello I think everybody feels we have somebody who can drag us through on tactical nous where ability may be lacking.

The strikers look terrible aswell tbh, '1 goal-this-season' Altidore and some MLS player who, tbf, I'd never heard of until about 2 weeks ago. The midfield looks fairly good and the keeper is top class, but really we should be looking to be that lot comfortably.

You can change your captain between 00:00 and 15 minutes before kick off of the first game tomorrow.

Something like this apparently: Howard Cherundolo, DeMerit, Onyewu, Bocanegra Donovan, Clark, Bradley, Dempsey Findley, Altidore Americans feel free to correct me.

Yep, he'll start.
