GROUP G - Belgium, Panama, Tunisia, England

[Billy Dean]

looking at the starting line ups you have to make England favourites IMO

I am a neutral and sincerely hope you lose here, Japan wipe the floor with England and go out to whoever the hell.

So not in the slightest neutral then?

Do you think Japan is a better team compared to Colombia?

A gentlemans agreement is pointless for England as they'll still top the group. They can't force the Belgians to foul them and they'll be playing passive imo. If I was Southgate then I'd send Ingerland out going full bore and look to put 3-4 passed them, put down a marker, nothing to lose.

In the sense I'm not English and have no "home" team to support like.

No, they're awful. The way of thinking really does my head in.

Just hope it works out like it did against Iceland

Just woke up on the sofa...been working ridiculous 18 hour days/nights and my body's telling me I'm too old for that sort of malarkey.It's freezing at the moment in NZ and I think I've caught a cold.
Anyway, enough stream of consciousness rubbish - there's a 'uninteresting news' thread for that : I can't wait to watch my mighty Three Lions take Belgium to the cleaners. Turnip Southgate is not a great manager but compared to Jason Derulo's mate, he's Sir Alex.Ferguson.
I have Harry Kane at the bookies as WC 'golden boot' winner (8 goals).

the most open world cup, possibly ever, worrying about the draw is like worrying about the sun coming up

You ITK about the sun coming up mate ?

I've had worse bets today.

Turnip Southgate the hypocrite puts the reserves out as predicted.

 

[Toast]

England fans just get on my tits.

Soz like.

I hope Dier is dreadful so it rules him out of playing further games.

I really don't understand resting players when there's a potential bye to the next round vs Japan waiting.
