Some USA player play in the English league and there is not 1 that truly impresses, average at best

If they draw 2 world football super powers they will go out

See know theres is where people always judge the U.S. team, It's true the didnt do well in the 2006 World Cup but then after they fired their coach and received a new one U.S. has been doing well against other teams compared to their previous history. Dempsey, Altidore, Casey and Donovan are all on the top 20 best players lets not forget how they demolished Spain 2-0

Yes, but they are slow in attack and that could be dangerous compared to a good defensive team like England and Germany

Show me the list that puts Donovan in the top 20 players LOL hes not even top 100

And England play Brazil soon so we'll see what happens but my feeling is there slow attack will still do OK against Englands back 4.

I would base many opinions on viewing the MLS fella, its a garbage league with its only decent player desperate to get away to secure an England place for the finals

The top 20 were from ESPN Sports Center, the show. Watch England dominate only if hey dont loose their goalkeeper like last time with Ukraine.

Lol, so Brazil seems to be the team you'r rooting for huh?

I'm rooting for England as I have missed about 10 games in 25 years

If you think that 11 men means England will be unstoppable I have some advice for you: put the crack pipe down

I was simply pointing out that writing off Brazil is sillyness to the Nth degree

[Pac_cap]

I'm rooting for England, of course.

Here are the ranking of the team, Brazil is first obviously: Fifa 2010 Rankings

[Afrikio]

This is not part of the title, but the MLS (Major League Soccer) Playoffs took place and Houston and Seattle <-------- Ljhnberg already had their first leg battle 0-0. I'm looking forward to Los Angeles Galaxy <------ Beckham vs. Chivas USA

[Demented Duck]

I can barely keep up with all these football events these days, so I have no idea what you're talking about.
I randomly picked a team to start rooting for, looks like I'm gonna have to write "England" on my forehead now. ;D

[Afrikio]

[DANshadow93]
