If we're being honest though a lot of the goals in this WC have come from some really poor defending. I've never seen so many teams poorly defend at this world cup as we have in this one, a lot ordinary goalkeeping as well. If England can be one of the very few who can defend, they might go far.
I don't care, I just want to be entertained . The WC in South Africa didn't do that enough for me.

But all this makes me nervous that England are gonna finish bottom of the group
I have the feeling this tournament might be akin to Euro 2004 for Germany - drew against Holland and Latvia before losing to the Czech Republic resulting in them bowing out at the group stage but blooded a lot of youngsters for the next tournament. I just wonder if the World Cup is a couple of years too early for our younger players.

If Costa Rica do actually win this, this changes EVERYTHING for the group!

Lots of goals in the opening matches, looking good for the whole tourney.

At this rate Arsene Wenger will be scratching off the need for a striker. Joel Campbell looks ready made - though saying that quite a few defences in the Premier League are better than Uruguay's.

He might not be as fit as Uruguay are trying to make out. Will be interesting to see what happens on Thursday; especially if Costa Rica win tonight.

Could and perhaps should have been the first red card of the tournament there.

Fingers crossed Suarez isn't fully fit when we play Uruguay, they're a bit of a mess without him.

If I was from Uruguay, I'd be thoroughly pissed off with the manager. 6 mins left and you still don't bring on Suarez?
