Have to agree with you Pesci, it's a good bit of software. It certainly cures some boredom at work! Went slightly different to you though, I think England will end up with Germany in the 2nd Round, I think Serbia are the dark horses this year. We could on paper have one of the most, probably the most difficult route. I've got us to go against The Germans, France, Brazil and then play Argentina or Italy in the final. I'm quietly confident though, but that's probably more to do with the fact I have a lot more faith in the ability of Capello over SGE. Rooney is more mature and electric at the moment, Lampard is in top form, Crouch always scores for England. I could go on, but I won't. Buzzing for Saturday, watching the game in town with about 30 friends, the atmosphere is going to be electric!

Yeah, don't rely on Talksport, now also confirmed on BBC Football Rio is out.

TalkSport are saying it's a twisted knee, which would rule him out!

Didier Drogba is out of the World Cup, he's fractured his elbow with 15 minutes left against Japan in Ivory Coast's last warm up game. Rio Ferdidnand has been taken to hospital for a scan after suffering a suspected twisted knee after a challenge from Emile Heskey, it would also rule him out of the World Cup. Michael Dawson is waiting in the wings to replace him!

Jose has made Steven Gerrard his main Real Madrid target of the summer. Arsenal are considering a move for Jean Makoun from Lyon. Maicon to Man City? I think he's exactly what they need. £36m Edin Dzeko to City aswell - WOW!

Group A 1. France 2. Mexico 3. South Africa 4. Uruguay France should walk this, I'll go with Mexico to take second. I saw enough of them against England on Monday, very good at going forward, shakey at the back but they should have enough to take 6 points. ====== Group B 1. Argentina 2. Nigeria 3. Greece 4. South Korea Same as Group A, Argentina will walk through this group simply because of their attacking qualities, I think it will be a different story come Round 2. There is not a lot to choose between Nigeria and Greece so I'll go with the Africans. ====== Group C 1. England 2. United States 3. Slovenia 4. Algeria England will hae no problems what so ever, they'll take all 9 points. As with the Group A and B, second place is a toss up but US have more quality about them then Slovenia, but second place will be decided when the two meet. ====== Group D 1. Serbia 2. Germany 3. Ghana 4. Australia I have to go with Serbia here above the Germans, although you can NEVER bet against an average German side in a tournament. The Serbians I think could go pretty far just through the spine of their team. Germany also finishing second sets up an England/Germany 2nd Round game, which will be awesome! ====== Group E 1. Netherlands 2. Denmark 3. Japan 4. Cameroon Holland will breeze through this, depending on what Dutch side turns up. Denmark are another team that are pretty deent in group stages but when England play Japan on Sunday, I'll get a closer look at the Japs, so I may change my mind. ====== Group F 1. Italy 2. Paraguay 3. Slovakia 4. New Zealand Probably the easiest group to pick 1-4. ====== Group G 1. Ivory Coast 2. Brazil 3. Portugal 4. North Korea I'm going with Ivory Coast to win the group. They'll upset Brazil and Portugal. Brazil will take second with Portugal going home, you hae to feel sorry for N. Korea! Group Of Death for sure! ====== Group H 1. Spain 2. Switzerland 3. Chile 4. Honduras The Swiss aren't a bad side, not world beaters but they're pretty decent. Spain will stroll through it. Chile could well nick second, I'm sure of it. ====== Round 2 France versus. Nigeria England versus. Germany Serbia versus. USA Argentina versus. Mexico Netherlands versus. Paraguay Ivory Coast versus. Switzerland Italy versus. Denmark Spain versus. Brazil ====== Quarter Final Netherlands versus. Ivory Coast France versus. England Serbia versus. Argentina Italy versus. Spain ====== Semi Final Ivory Coast versus. England Serbia versus. Italy ====== Final England versus. Italy Winners: England Biased? Maybe so. ^_^

I think that could turn out to be a pretty good signing, it's certainly a bargain with the money you normally have to pay for a striker. He has a decent record at International level, think it works out just under 1 every 2 games, he wasn't prolific for Valencia but got 13 goals in 19 games for Santander last year. If all goes well, he could be one of the signings of the season, he'll certainly give defenders a problem just because of his height. Everton have turned down a £5million bid for Yakubu from West Ham. Kris Boyd could be on his way to Newcastle from Rangers on a free. Ipswich, Leeds and Burnley are all being linked with a £1.5million bid for Rob Hulse from Derby.

38. You appoint a manager who is sacked in The Championship for basically relegating a team just because his points average is still, meh.

24. You're linked with Carlos Puyol only to sign Jean Alain Boumsong

7. When Liverpool win The Premier League 8. When Djemba-Djemba is your midfield rock 9. When Sergei Rebrov is your main goal threat

It's not a good sign when your first post is a request :lmao: Awesome, thanks, appreciate it.

5. Roberto Baggio (ITALY) versus. Czechoslovakia - 1990 3. Dennis Bergkamp (HOLLAND) versus. Argentina - 1998
