I honestly don't remember anyone giving a shit about him playing for England, let along anyone having a meltdown.

He was the boo boys favourite and a load of Sun readers were up in arms about him being a Canadian who grew up in Germany. Remember on here a load of people slagged him too. Wasn't running around and making hollywood passes like the other lads.

Fair enough, your memory (and Baco's) is better than mine. He had a good tournament as I recall!

He was superb in 2006 and the only one to score in the penalty loss to Portugal.

Any decent podcasts that are previewing it ?

If you like (or have heard of) Zealand, he's been reviewing one team every day since 48 days to go on his "Zealandism" channel.

The Football Manager guy? Might have to give that a listen.

Yeah, he has a second channel where he just talks shit about football. I met him near Wembley a couple of weeks ago. He was doing some stuff for the play-offs. Was quite surreal to meet a yank YouTuber wearing a Hull City scarf. I don't think he was offended by me asking "WTF are you doing here?"

My kid was looking at his wallchart this morning, and while browsing Group K said 'Doctor Congo?'
Spat my tea across the table at him...

Dr Congo sounds like a late 80s WWF wrestler stereotype

Using the predictor Rick posted in the actual world cup thread I've predicted my Curacao win. 

Win the group obviously. 

Round of 32. Beat the hosts 

Round of 16. Beat France

QF. Beat the birth nation of all but 1 of the team. 

SF. See of the Spanish

Final. Crush the Germans

I can't be arsed to do a whole prediction, but I do think England will win it, and have said this since the last World Cup.

I look at their squad, and think only Spain can rival it in terms of depth, especially the attack options. The only thing holding them back would be the heat and humidity, but the majority of European countries will struggle with that probably.

Cue a disappointing QF exit for them again.

Brilliantly seen Belgium described as dark horses, which will be the 400th tournament they've been labelled that.
