Re: World Cup 2006

I was going to start a thread about the World Cup with 30 days to go.....seems like someone beat me to it.

Without even a shred of blind patriotism I fancy England to go pretty close. If Wayne 'who needs Ronaldinho' Rooney was fully fit I'd really fancy us to win it. Unfortunately it seems the 'curse of the metatarsal' has struck again.
Davis Beckham broke his before Japan 2002 and I believe the same injury caused Gary Neville to miss a tournament. Also, Michael Owen has just come back from the same injury.

Sven MUST take him. He could be back for the Quarter-Finals and I think we can qualify from the group stage without him. If we progress we should face Germany or Poland - I take us to beat any of them.

However, my money will be on Argentina or Italy.
