Official HEXUS World Cup Discussion Thread!

[Grey M@a]

Should be a good game tomorrow but as England have got themselves a place in the next round I think this match can go two ways. Either you will see England pull out all the stops to show everyone what they can do when they actually play the game as they can, or they will treat it as a practice round, test fitness and hold off for a draw or a one goal lead. Watching the last few games we've played, we need to really pull up our socks and get down to it otherwise I cant see us getting past the next round at all

Haha. Htid: That's true, you haven't beaten us in a very long time. And yeah I agree that we haven't played our best yet, but the team has reasons (because of injuries and stuff). And yeah, you have played pretty much the same as us I believe, since we played 0-0 against Trinidad & Tobago and well you beat them with 2-0..this too in the last minutes. So sure, we made a goal in the last minutes against Paraguay, but the only reason England beat them was because Paraguay made a goal in their own goal. And against Paraguay we were pretty close making more goals. And now that we've beaten them, I believe the team has better self-confidence! Wilhelmsson and Källström are both very good yes, but we have other good guys too. Like; Allbäck, Elmander etc etc. It's a shame that Zlatan isn't feeling well, which everyone saw against our match against Paraguay. He might not even play tomorrow..

But, well I'm not a big patriot...but still, GO SWEDEN

Gray: I agree with you.

Rooney!, Rooney!, Rooney!

[Moonshade]

Not at all ... theres nothing wrong woth supporting your country ... infact im all for it ... unless they are french .....

i love swedish meatballs tbh, and not that i want Sweden to win ... but if they do, Ikea are selling swedish meatballs for 1p ..

Hmmmmm meatballs ..

[Moonshade]

Haha Steve, that's great. And thanks for your understanding although wasn't really serious about getting my butt kicked. I know Hexus is a wonderful place, and I've hidden around here many times when the real world was grey and boring .

Meatballs are good actually like them too.
Especially home made ones! *mm*

Can I just say, come on the Ghana!

This tournament's Cameroon I feel...

[Melynda]

I want England to win -> just like the rest of the country !!!

Though after watching the match on Thursday (vs Trinidad&Tobago) ... I must say that I do not really appreciate G.Southgates comments ...

[Steve A]

?? Why what did he say ??

Tell tell

Lol, you call him Zlatan instead of Ibrahimovic eh? I have a German friend whos obsessed with Sweden and she calls him Zlatan but i thought that was only because of the obsession Do you also call Larsson "henke" and Ljungberg "freddie"? lol Sounds weird if we all referred to Rooney as Wayne.

[frumpet]

?? Why what did he say ??

Believe he was making generally ignorant comments along the lines of "They (T&T) would do better if it was half cricket half football. They might even have a chance!" and "Brian Lara could get into this team"

Anyway, thoughts on Germany v Ecuador? I think the game will be close but the Germans (mainly due to home support) will just win.

Same here and thats what i hope too, so that we top our group and avoid the Germans

[Steve A]

Hmm well its 1-0 to the Germans atm ... and good tbh .... I always said that was my preffered team to play in the next round at they will struggle against a good solid European team ... England i think would beat them all day long ...
