Dont no how much any of the NA boys and girls follow soccer but this year i think England have a great chance the only probem we could have is our manger a swede :'(lol has already told us that hes leaving after the world cup, and that could maybe take our minds of the game,he is always in the media eye after having 2 affairs and talking to undercover reporters about players i think he should have gone now.and give us 5 months to groom a new guy but all in all we have a great chance to bring home what is ours ;D

Hi Engin the coach of england is sven goran erickesson he was the coach of lazio before he took the job with england,fergerson is man utd coach and hes scottish,brazil always have great chance of winning but this year i beleive we can match anyone and more so player for player frank lamard from chelsea came 2nd to ronaldinho in the votes for the best player in the world for me franks better all rounder who for a midfielder scores for fun,but strikers seem to get all the fame.with frank,david beckham,steven gerrard,wayne rooney soon to be better than anyone who has graced the game,micheal owen and more big names that cups on its way after 40 years of hurt.

i think the last and only time that England has won the world cup was 1966 world cup.but there was a goal that was argued by many at the match between England and Germany?
i really cant wait to see the match between Chelsea and Barcelona.last year Chelsea beat Barca at the quarter finals of the champions league,but they lost to Liverpool at the semi finals.and Liverpool did a miracle against Milan at the final match that was in my country.Milan was winning 3-0 but Liverpool tied 3-3 and won the cup with penalties.that was a great win for England.

England will have a chance as long as Beckham doesn't miss the penalty shots. With Lampard, Gerard, Cole, Rooney, Beckham and I believe Owen is injured??? England should be a decent team though. However, I think Italy is due for some glory.
P.S. Paul I am a follower of the English Premier League.

Yes, while Germany has home advantage I doubt they will make it past the quarters. Paul... watch out though! England is a bit soft when it comes down to penalty shots. Need I remind you of Portugal 2004??? As long as Becks doesn't take penalty kicks, England should be good. Do you know if David James is returning as keeper?

We have been done on the spots a few times now but with our current crop of players i think they can hold there nerve.James will be there but Robinson of spurs will be in goal
