history and tradition is oaky but keeping it to australkia and england is just like saying that the ashes is only for good OLD WHITE BOYS. I think you are right that 2 teams can be added to the tournament based on the top 2 rating points besides the 2 countries.

I notice in some of the previous answers that people were refering to the Malvinas and the last rugby world cup. Perhaps if the english started looking forward instead of trying to bask in past glories they would be better on the world stage. Unlikely to happen though, just look at their soccer commentaries.

Sweden needs to win (Sweden could also tie tough) but I think the English will try to avoid Germany in the next round. Moreover, I think England will not play at 100% and with many substitutes

I'm not sure Defoe is England's answer. But you are correct. Why bring a player along if you won't play him. I can think of a couple other strikers who deserve a chance.

Dude its always correct to think England should mature up as a team. But you cant win a match without a striker can you, as Michael Owen is injured too and Rooney who is considered as having the caliber of Pele too hits the ground. Moreover there is no better replacement for Rooney in the whole country. Try thinking that way.

only 3 per game... if a player gets a red card after 3 subs have been made, then tough luck...... England normally subs either defenders or midfielders, it was a good hing they put gerrard in the game... that goal was amazing.... but they slipped up and let the 2nd sweden goal go in....

Of course. England didn't play very well against Costa Rica. England has very good players but however they not as good as they well. I hope England improves and goes back to their top form.

Only if they want the Kiwis to piss themselves laughing. Maybe they should it may be the only chance England have of winning

I agree Argentina are looking the goods. Better than Brazil at present. As for the starting line up and subs for England you can only go with what you think will be effective against the side you are playing that day. Wilcott may get a run but I think it will be late into the game and more likely only if England are in control.\n\nBill, being a woman she is probably organised and has her housework completed and has plenty of time to ponder what sport you would have to watch if we didn't give birth to those who play this "man's game". You get your opinion out there girl..good for you!

not this year England went to Germany with a lot of injuries and this will effect the play of England they are not going to make it.the swede probably deserved it .they have a couple of guys that think the yellow card is part of there uniform .check the Sweden England match for examples .Germany is strong but so is Brazil  Australia is the real sleeper they played Brazil up to the last minute and missed alot of potential goals but that's part of the game.Spain ,Italy and Mexico two struggling teams.England isn't able to face off with Brazil or Germany both would run them into the ground with England forced into a defensive game as with the Sweden match  second half when they still had some strikers that could walk.the depend on a young 18 year old to see them thru the world cup.alot of people thought England was gambling with the selection well it came back and bit them in the first round that they struggled out to advance.

not English but lived there for years.  I think they are stumbling rather.  Sad more than anything, because they have an excellent squad and the potential to play such amazing football, but it isn't working at the moment :(  Here's to a good game against Portugal.

Depends.  What I feel England lack is a world class spin bowler.  If the wickets are such that out seam/swing attck is favoured I would give us a very good chance against anyone.  If the wicket turns sharply later and doesn't offer much to the quicks early then we will struggle.

England if they play to their potential - Maybe 1-0 with a Beckham free kick
