The 2014 FIFA World Cup

The poor man's Emile Heskey - pure gold!

Been waiting twelve years for this:

@Megatron1505 cannot believe you forgot to mention David Ginola

[Megatron1505]

@FurattoHeddo Ginola was who I was on about when I said that we had only had one great French player. The man is a hero of mine along with Asprilla, Albert Robert Lee, David Batty, Gary Speed (RIP) and Pavel Sniceck.

[Megatron1505]

And not forgetting your illustrious countryman

I remember seeing Albert interviewed before a European game at an airport with a crate of beer under one arm and 400 cigs under the other. Legend.

well done belgium (even though i couldn't see the match -.-)…now i'm hoping for brazil to win this one.
mexico is going to be a hard one to kill though. some nice chicks in the crowd btw.

[Megatron1505]

WTF are Brazil doing? Fred is a waste of space, the full backs are actually staying back and Neymar is wandering around like a headless chicken. If they don't step up their game or get lucky they are going to get beaten.

Quite impressed with Mexico so far, they look compact and organised, the full backs are shadowing Marcelo and Alves and Marquez still looks like he can really play a bit still, even at 35.

[Finn666]

Fred is like a back up defender for the team Brazil is playing against…can't understand his nomination tbh.! shot like that makes me angry

[Megatron1505]

Marquez has been absolutely supreme tonight, reminded me of Baresi's performance at USA 94.

Brazil didn't look so undefeatable…and congrats to Belgium for coming back after being behind. Having seen all teams but Russia and South Korea, I feel this could be a most suspenseful WC, with several teams being potential champions, and thus many tight matches with Hitchcock qualities.

[mclaincausey]

As much as I'd love to pull for our neighbor, I just can't pull for Mexico, even against Brazil, the fans are just too vile. I guess I tie is a-ok.

[501IH]

Buenas noches, España! The king abdicated, and so did their team. Ha!
The socceroos can leave with their heads up, good game against the Dutch. The Netherlands are the team to beat for anyone toying with the title…

[Megatron1505]

Sad for Spain but they really lack a cutting edge , Chile have been excellent so far.

Balls to the wall prediction here, either France or Colombia will make the final.

[501IH]

That's a risky bet, Gav! I see them ending in the quarter or semi finals as the max.

[Megatron1505]

I have faith man, and that faith improved when they lost Falcao. Makes the rest of them stop relying on them and actually play.

[Finn666]

Spain sucked pretty bad… ???
now it's gonna be Germany that wins the damn thing...sry all

Balls to the wall would be USA making the final hah

[ohighyo]

Columbia looks amazing. More ball finesse than any other team. South American teams make it look so easy. USA looks like they all have sausage feet. No finesse! Just clearing the ball out everytime and no well placed passing, at least compare to other teams. We suck at soccer
