It's bad enough that England will lose, now you have to laugh at them too? Talk about kickin' them when they're down...

Watch your backs (and shins

) for Australia. I **** you not! They are a good side not to be underestimated and written off, I fully expect them to come through their group with a win and a draw most likely but will probably get two draws Germany and Ghana whilst beating Serbia. If you recall we came through last time round with brazil, beating japan and A draw with Croatia if I do recall correctly. Only a lack of big match experiance let them down against Italy, not knowing that the dirty itais dive whenever they get near the box ( Grosso is a C NT) expect Cahill to be dangerous with good support from Lucas Neil, Schwarzer in goal, Kewel playing a cameo role and a heap of no-nonsense bruisers you'll know you've played a match.
Will meet England in the knockout. Aus 3-0 Eng. Last time they met.

They`re in a tough group and they are going to want at least draws against both Ghana and Germany two teams that will match them on the physical side. I remember the Croatia match well and Serbia like Croatia will be technically superior to Australia, but won`t be able to match the Aussies physically, saying that though Zigic is a big boy at 2.02 metres

Other than that our national team isn't too bad. Even though I'm a massive United fan, if Capello plays Walcott/Lennon instead of Michael Johnson he's a clown. Johnson has been far more impressive than them two on the right of midfield.

What do people think their supported teams strongest line up is? Not the line up they think the manager will pick. I'll go with.

James

Johnson
Ferdinand
Terry
Cole

M. Johnson
Lampard
Barry/Hargreaves
Gerrard
Ashley Young

Rooney

Risky putting Hargo in there after only just coming back to fitness, but we need that type of player. Gerrard to play in the hole behind Rooney.

It's not that I hate England's national team for their players (they are World Class and individually, I don't mind them) but there are football teams you hate for no other reason than to hate, you know? England so happens to be one of them. Mexico is another. Although, I hate Mexico's much, much more.

And that's a solid line-up. Rooney's probably going to score 8 or more goals.
