World Cup 2014

[Beanz]

The US has the fucking group of death Ghana, Portugal, Germany.....not fun AT ALL.


So I'm not optimistic about our chances but here's hoping

As an English man I hope Ghana win the group

Surely this is the tournament for Brazil, and maybe the one where Neymar really shows that he deserves to be counted among the best in the world.

I'd also like to see Mexico do well, they always seem to get forgotten, but are a decent side, although they did have a few hiccups in qualifying.

Looking forward to the 2014 EPL World Cup. I think either Brazil or Barcelona will win it.

For the first time since 1982 I have sod all expectation from England – maybe it’s for the best.

Can’t argue with his squad selection mind - then again there was probably little alternative to the 23 he picked given the lack of the premier league’s home grown talent. I hope the new propositions the FA had for the English league come into force, that will help our national team a lot.

Can’t see anyone beyond Brazil and Argentina winning – the climate will suit them

how bad is the climate going to be though... it's winter time in brazil i guess the further north places and the jungle city will still be pretty hot but how hot is it in rio in winter... cant be super high... I am just guessing though

Rios around 20 so fairly hot. Up north its terrible though, they have to play in the middle of the jungle in the afternoon for the tv ratings to be maximised. When England play Italy in Manaus humidity is at 99%

Did you see the England players training wearing layers of clothing to get use to the humidity?

[killersheep]

Absolute heartbreak. I'm proud of the guys, Belgium is simply the better team, but they never gave up and played with heart for 120 minutes.
