World Cup 2014

Disagree just cause I think Uruguay is very overrated. Their midfield is awful. They barely qualified (tough region obviously, poor man's Concacaf)

Germany and Italy are a bit of a wash
Right now I would say Portugal > England (that could change depending on Ronaldo's health and how England look)
Ghana > Uruguay
US > Costa Rica

The two candidates for group of death IMO are our group and the Spain, Chile, Netherlands, Australia group. I would have Group D in third.

Although, I wasn't impressed at all with either Chile or Australia, really.

It wouldn't surprise me if Uruguay finished with 0 points. I think England are better even with a healthy Suarez.

I'd rather play Ghana over Uruguay every day. On the other hand though I would put Germany comfortably above Italy at the moment. So banter aside you do have a very tough group. I'd say the toughest groups are Spain group, followed by our group and your group being hard to split.
Worth noting that this is probably the first time ever England have been ranked 3rd in FIFA rankings in their group.

Seriously though, this has been an awesome start. I know FIFA is just absurdly corrupt -they literally might be telling officials to give Brazil calls - and I don't care, it's still an amazing sports event.

Even today has been fun, and frankly the first two games were kind of shitty looking on paper. I was looking forward to England-Italy from the start (watch that be a fucking bore).

Crazy nervous. fucking losing it. so scary

Good luck England.

as usual Id say Australia has pumped its own bike tires up to much.

Let the English navel gazing begin.

2-1 oh no could of been if Rooney hit took his chance but we can still qualify.

Hello

How did Wales get on in the test match earlier?

Also, I can't find them on my wall chart, so what group are Wales in in the World cup?
