5pm, 8pm and 11pm are when the games will be played.

What games are you looking forward to?

Spain v Holland
England v Italy
England v Uruguay
Germany v Portugal
Belgium v Russia

Colombia vs Ivory Coast might be worth a watch but seeing as how Falcao injured and won't take part, its taking the sting out of that fixture. Falcao vs Drogba could have been fun to watch.

Hopefully these will be banned.

Lampard shouldn't even be on the bench. Far too many young players that need to start instead of Lamps and Stevie.

I would go Sterling a start over Ox.

 

[Robert1986]

GK: Hart
RB: ?
LB: Baines
CB: Cahill, Jagielka
CM: Gerrard
LM: ?
RM: ?
FW: Rooney, Sturridge

No idea outside of those players but I'd like to see Shaw ahead of Cole and Henderson over the likes of Cleverley.

No chance of Luke Shaw getting a start over Cole. Shaw hasn't even really been in the England side if at all?

Milner at RM surely? He has been outstanding for City when he plays.

 

[Robert1986]

Would love Belgium to get absolutely tanked one way or another

Why? They have one of the best sides in the cup. They should be able to hold their own.

Pretty much my team bar Walker and Sturridge..they aren't good enough i don't think..i hope Sturridge proves us wrong tho and smashes a whole load in..

Sturridge not good enough? he is one of the in form strikers in the country. Maybe Welbeck should start ahead of him?

On ITV news just now, 3 stadiums are nowhere near ready and they've had several years to prepare! They still have to install 42000 seats in one stadium, and one of the others is still a bit of a building site. One of the stadiums not ready will be for the opening Brazil match. They're saying it's a race against the clock. Since this is now becoming a hurried job, I'd be worried about something collapsing during a match.

thats shocking.
