I suspect we are going to run a 4-5-1 (I know that I preached this for England too, but I think it is best for both teams). I think our most effective team would run a 5 man midfield behind McBride up front. The 5 in the mid- Beasly, Donovan, and Dempsey, supported by Reyna and Mastroeni. Based on the forwards Arena chose, I can’t see it happening another way. We are in serious trouble if Wolff or Ching ever see the field. And EJ is more of supersub than a starter, with his bad foot and all.
I was going to Germany this year, but I knocked my wife up at the wrong time and now instead of going to the WC I got a new baby son. Poor kid, I got to get over this resentment. Tony- do you post at Bigsoccer? |

Occasionally yes, I mostly read, but I occasionally pop up with something (more often a silly retort to some nut).

Well the winner will either be from European or Brazil, the rest of the teams don't stand much chance tbh. Winning the world cup outside your home continent has proved a major hurdle over the years and this will not be any different.
England will get to the knockout stages and fall to the 1st decent team they meet. Germany will scrap through to the final playing poorly and scoring very few goals and one team will pop up to suprise everyone. On a side note, its a bloody scandal USA are ranked so highly in the world. Makes a mockery of the whole system. |

To be fair, it's just the latest and perhaps most egregious example of a system that's been broken for quite some time. Luckily pretty much nobody cares about the FIFA rankings (or FIFA itself for that matter as long as Septic Bladder is Chief Bribetaker
 ).
