I thought I should explain for those of you who didn't know, last night a charity football match was held between England and a Rest of the World team to raise money for UNICEF, the teams were made up of retired players (except Ryan Giggs) and celebrities. Woody Harrelson scored the winning penalty for the Rest of the World team which included a midfield of Zinedine Zidane and Mike Myers, Joe Calzaghe on the wing. And that fool from 'Heros' who took a throwing from a corner

The game between USA and England is a must watch for me. Be nice for US to pick up the win.

I predict this thread will die for Americans around 20 mins into the game on saturday, after Heskey scores his hat trick...
Srsly though, I'm fairly confident. Your defence is pretty poor, and will crap themselves when they see Heskey coming at them, freeing up Rooney to score.

It's obvious you are confident...really, you are cocky, which honestly, what right does and english fan have to be cocky...you won the world cup when? oh yeah, 1966.....and thats it. England is a good team, but stop talking like they are unbeatable. and you took and injury on your defense as well.... Its about time we got respect out there on the pitch for what we do. We beat Spain, we won the concacaf, so we are not going to just let England walk all over us. Do i expect us to win the world cup? no. But enough talking like we are a second rate team.

Also, the game against England is only one game. We win our others, and the only signifigance is in seeding

Beat Spain in the most irelevent international tournament in the world. CONCAF has no decent teams, not a great achievement. If you come second in group C, which is likely, you would be a second rate team... Also, the game against England is only one game. We win our others, and the only signifigance is in seeding Seeding is crucial, the difference between getting teams like Germany and teams like Nigeria in the second round. Oh, and finally, I am winding you up. We're better than you but its fun to joke around

Giggs you are really underestimating our defence. Bocanegra has been solid, bornstein has been playing well, and once gooch gets his legs back under him we have a solid d and howard is a great keeper. Besides that our midfield is strong with dempsey and donavon on the wing. Jozy Findley and Buddle can all sore goals. This team is really underated. You will see on Saturday. I can't wait

Concaf has no decent teams? really? and we are not a second rate team, we are a solid team. i think it would be AWESOME if we played germany, you played nigeria, and you lost...I'd LMAO. seriously, you need to tone it down, your team hasn't done poop in years. Just read your edit. good to know

Not really, Manchester United won the Carling Cup this season but I readily admit its pretty irellevent. Yes really, not one potential Semis team, let alone a team that could win it. A solid, unspectacular second rate team. I'm sure it would be awesome, but it also won't happen. Giggs you are really underestimating our befence. Bocanegra has been solid, bornstein has been playing well, and once gooch gets his legs back under him we have a solid d and howard is a great keeper. Besides that our midfield is strong with dempsey and donavon on the wing. Jozy. Findley and Buddle can all sore goals. This team is really underated. We will see on Saturday. I can't wait Fair play Donovan and Dempsey are good, Howard I saw a lot of at Man Utd and he didn't impress me but admittedly he has got a little better. We tend to be underwhelming in the Group Stage but I still firmly believe we will get 9/9 points.

To say we don't have a shot at the Semi's is ludacris

To say we don't have a shot at the Semi's is ludacris Its not ludicrous, its realistic. England, Spain, Brazil, Argentina, Germany, Holland, Italy, Ivory Coast, and probably even Portugal and France are all better than you.
