Poll: England vs. USA (Football World Cup)

[Davrel]

rarrr, rage, snort, rage - why does the US even play football? Can't they stick to hand-egg and man-rounders? The obscene amount of money they get means they dominate (eventually, if not immediately) any sport they get involved with.

OT: The above was, of course, meant to be taken as a joke, but really, I'm not even an avid follower of football, but whats left of my national pride can't really take the kicking that would come from being beaten at football by the US...

You're meant to be a joke...

Calm down, chap - that wasn't aimed at you, but rather the section of my post that is in italics. Protip: trolls don't last long here.

Its strange, ill support america (me being american) in every single sport they play internationally...except football. I have a sever dislike of their football team, one of those sport hate things you cant explain. So, i hope its england 4 - 0 and the US doesnt make it out of the first round, so they can go home and play in their minor league soccer teams.

 

[fenrizz]

I hope against hope that USA will come trough for me and win the game!

GO GO GERMANY!

I think the team that actually calls football 'football' will win. Bloody Americans, the rest of the world calls it football, why do you have to be different?

[sub]That was a joke by the way, not a rant.[/sub]

Hehe, we call it Soccer because it makes everyone else complain.

We're really just giant trolls

OT: I'm neutral on the matter. So... TAKIN' ALL BETS!

The only joke here will be when the US trainwrecks those pansy Englanders all the way back to London. They will be all like "Oooh, they're after me lucky charms and a dingo ate my baby!" Then BOOOOM!!! ROETHLISBERGER TACKLES THE ENTIRE TEAM!!!!

Sick tight. When is this going to be on, I haven't seen anything for it on TV. I don't want to miss this. I don't think there is a single person in Great Britland that can stop that man. Probably not even in the entire Country of England.

What? You do realise this thread is about football (soccer) not American football, also, the lucky charms would be an Irish stereotype not an English one and the dingo ate my babies reference is Australian.
You are like the worst troll of all time.

England have been crap recently. I chuckled at a statement by a pundit on our last friendly " Japan 3: England Won." We didn't beat them, they got the score line by managing two own goals as well as one against us. We couldn't even score against them.

I can't believe we are bringing Heskey and expect him to goal hang as much as he can and eat the grass. OK Bent didn't do great in his tests but at least he has some pace and imagination. Hell, he came third in the PL "Golden Boot" this year whereas Heskey didn't even make double figures.

And we picked the worse possible goalie as our number one. Hart had some amazing games at Birmingham.

I hate it when the manager plays Lampard and Gerrard at the same time because they perform the same role (and are devils for trying to blag glory, lash at the ball and waste any build up by kicking the ball into the 84th row or the shins of the man right in front of them).

Ferdinand and Barry (and Joe Cole) have been on the sidelines from injury and I have no faith in their ability to keep up the pace of the tournament).

Honestly, the US does have a couple of good players and it would give the UK what it deserves to get a bloody nose. I am way more excited to see Australia, the USA and some of the African nations coming on the field than watching England arse about in the midfield while lofting the occasional high ball at Crouch.


er. Not that I have an opinion or anything.

Ha, they are so backwards over there. Drive on the left side of the road, call soccer football, and have their toilets flush in the opposite direction. Damn England, if you want to copy us so much, at least get it right.

Look at me, I'm in england. I call the color of the sky purple and a stop sign means speed. Seriously, England could you be any more lame. You guys are like Bizzaro us, just not as good.

Other than the fact that Soccer was a nickname coined by the English for Association Football? I can't think of a single reason why... hmmm...

Ok, I'm guessing you are a troll, reporting and moving on.

 

[Riobux]

I don't care about football, but I'm pretty convinced England will win. Just because England has a generally better track record for football.

 

[The_root_of_all_evil]

England will beat the US. Brazil/France/Italy/Germany/Holland will beat England.

Foregone conclusion.

Quiet you! How dare you argue with logic!

 

[Seatownstriker]

I'm just hoping its a good game. Not some crazy blowout. Go USA!

 

[shootthebandit]

i think you should change the 3rd option in the poll to "i dont care im scottish".

one thing that really pisses me off and this is why i dont want england to win a world cup again is because they go on about who great ENGLAND is at everything but when something good happens in Scotland they all of a sudden become British (take Andy Murray for example). They just

And if they do win this world cup which i highly doubt, they should stop using the 2 world wars and 1 world cup chant. fair enough they won a world cup but it wasnt just england that fought in the wars, if it wasnt for our influence they wouldve got arse raped way back in the crimean war and they'd all be talking russian

 

[Cosplay Horatio]

England will win for sure.

 

[Lord S. Binkleheimer]

Pfft, forget England and America.
Hup Holland!

 

[kelvingreen]

As has been said, England should win, but the team has a tendency towards complacence and laziness, and I expect them to be caught out by the US. It will probably be 1-1, but since that's not an option here, I'll go 2-1 to the US. England are woken up with a shock by the defeat and proceed to crush the rest of the group, but still get knocked out in the quarters or semis.

That's funny... i thought lucky charms was an Irish stereotype... and i cant remember the last time my baby was eaten by a dingo, in the middle of yorkshire...
Your an offense to trolls everywhere...

 

[tinkyyy]

I'm going for some pessimism and expecting England to be their usual faltering selves at a world cup, and lost to USA, and possibly make it through the group before going out by the quarters, if they even make it that far.

But that's just based on how we always perform at World Cups, despite England's qualifying record.

I am English by the way, but I'm also a Newcastle fan, so I just expect the worst all the time
