If Brazil do avoid Spain at the Round of 16, they could not meet then until the final. But it could possibly put Argentina in the way of Brazil at the semi final stage.

Ah right, I thought the world cup was like, split, where teams from each half could only meet each other until the final.

Força Portugal.

That should be enough to see them into the round of 16.

Those Koreans are going to be in trouble when they get back home!!

England should be made to constantly watch the video of the Portugal game, pass and move, it's a whole new concept.

Portugal to top the group with a draw against Brazil, maybe Spain won't top the group either. Interesting...

I was about to say goal difference then I suddenly remembered that Portugal drew with Ivory Coast

Even if England were in a group with the three lowest ranked nations in the world we wouldn't score 5/6/7/8 goals. We make hard work of everything.

I hope I am not wrong.....but I have the feeling that the England players have told Fabio what they think, and come Wednesday....they will be playing where they think they are best in the formation they think is best.
I know Upson is on for Carragher........but I will be very surprised if Heskey starts and surprised if Joe Cole doesn't.
Have I just dreamt this?

I think Mark Bright managed to talk about the possible offside in the build up to that goal for about 30 seconds without actually making any sense whatsoever! How does he have this job seriously?
