    "Avoiding the Germany/Brazil" side of the draw no longer looks quite so important!

    I think we avoided both sides of the draw quite well. Yet again NZ can claim to being unbeaten at the WC.

    @crucial very funny.

    However it does mean Belgium and England will want to win. That might make that game rather more interesting.

    I've never been a big fan of losing to get a "better" side. In the RWC, if you have aspirations of winning you want to be on the ABs side. We've been much easier to beat in early rounds. Brazil are not likely to get worse in this tournament.

    And no-one cares you made the final and lost. These things are winner take all.

    bloody embarassing. I'll take consolation in the fact that there was no bad luck involved, it was actually all just shit form by most of the usual key players, especially Özil, Kroos and Müller. Fuck these overpaid fucks. Will root for England, Belgium and Croatia now.

    oh shit, so many good things

    "Are you England? Are you England? Are you England in disguise?"

    Germany failing in Russia, and not for the first time.

    Is this World Cup already a success for England? They have smacked someone, and are in it longer than the Krauts.

    It's still pretty hard to believe, they don't normally fuck up this badly, but they have been abject. Too much reliance on an Arsenal player...

    Is Neymar the most overrated player in the game by the way? What a complete cock.

    He and Ronaldo epitomise modern players. That's not a compliment.

    There should be an investigation into Mexico, bu there won't be.

    I had Germany as finalists and Muller as top scorer in KP's comp.

    My chances are going down faster than a Lowenbrau at Oktoberfest.

    Paradoxically I made exactly the same tips in another comp and am leading by 12 - the fix is in!

    Still rather have my Audi than a Hyundai

    @marty Ha! Thing is with Koreans is they're only interested when the national side is going well or the odd player excelling in overseas comps. No bugger there watches the K-League.

    Just looking at the graphics of the game, you can see the Koreans ripped into it with the cards etc. and the Germans must have been quite passive and sitting back.

    doesn't matter, nothing will ever take away losing 7-1 in a semi final of a home world cup 🙂
