the english press, followed by everyone who buys the papers slating the present manager. english fans are brain washed into these incredible high expectancy levels, leading to disappointment and a which hunt.

ENGLAND WILL WIN. David Beckham's uncanny precision. Wayne Rooney's 200% commitment. Peter Crouch's awkward awesome stikes. Stevie G's torpedo thunderbolts. Frank Lampard's sneaky shots. John Terry's heroic defending. Rio Ferdinand's chess-play instincts. And the awesome potential of Michael Owen (he'll deliver), Aaron Lennon, Stewart Downing and the other chaps in the squad. Is that enough reason  for you? ENGGERLAAAAAAAAND....

I think the real question is can England beat Ecuador or Germany in the final 16? If so, then can they win the quarter finals? If so, then we will talk about Brazil.\nAt the moment, England have a better overall textbook team on paper. I think Brazil have so much more talent that could be used though. I think England's textbook team are not as comfortable in using this to their advantage as Brazil are at using their talents to their advantage. So really I think Brazil play more to their strengths and should win.

Ian Wright is one of my favourite players of all time.  I used to watch him week in, week out at Highbury, and I still think that he was never allowed enough of a chance for England.  Great player, funny guy, massive personality, and yet possibly the least likely England manager I can think of.  I'd prefer most people in that role.  Cilla Black, Dame Edna Everidge, my dog (which died in 1988)............ any of those would be a better choice than Wrighty.\n\nThanks for the idea tho.

Portugal or Spain in an upset!\n\nNot a big upset.\n\nI think England has the talent if Owen and Rooney are healthy!

If you're talking about the Premiership, then it's surely Petr Cech. If you're talking about the England squad, then it has to be Robinson and James. But, I don't think they are world class as Dida or Lehmann or Kahn.

Well it's not Sven (I think I'll put Hargreaves on again even though he's a waste of space) Goran Eriksson, that's for sure.\n\nThink it's to early to answer your question, but I think my likely candidate will be someone who's doing well with a less talented team, because lets be honest - you don't have to be a great manager to win the World Cup with Brazil!

Goalkeepers - God help us if Robinson gets injured or sent off\nDefence - Strong\nMidfield - Strong but should have picked Scott Parker instead of Jenas\nAttack - Oh Christ, Owen if he is fit then fine. Lennon, worth a place as a late sub. Rooney, will England still be in the competition by the time he is fit to play? I would still include him though. Walcott, next world cup maybe, not this one. Crouch, bad joke the most unathletic looking player I've seen picked for England - no pace, no power, no stamina, weak shot, not even that good in the air.  If Rooney is not fit then we will play 4 5 1 so we might as well take a player who has proved he can do it even Beattie or Davis (Bolton) would be far better options than Crouch.\n\nI think it is all too easy to see Englands dreams turning to disaster with the current squad.  Maybe like this - first game Owen breaks down and is out of the tournament, later Robinson brings down a player who's broken through - sent off + game ban.  James comes on + midfielder subbed James makes late howler England lose 1 - 0.  Second game pressure on no striking options second howler from James lose 1 - 0 good night Vienna.\n\nThis would be a disaster given the overall strength of the squad but could easily happen with the risks Erikson is taking.  And as a final worry if it needs a blood and thunder speech at half time in the final group game to get the boys going who's going to give it - Erikson or McClaren, both are pitiful.

England:- if they win this game they qualify the group stages, but after a poor performance against paraguy they need to up there game. It is looking like Wayne Rooney Englands best striker will play some of the match but not all 90 minutes. Failing that Theo Wallcot is likely to come on.\n\nT&T:- Managed asuprise draw against sweden and have it all to play for especially when second place is deffinetely up for grabs

Brazil in all cases is the best, WHY. The point is they have players which have indivedual skils which give the team the leading in case of plan failure. Ok we respect England but listen to english they are screaming coz of missing one player called RONNEY.

I AM PORTUGUESE TOO and my views are these -- the English have an inferiority complex when they play Portugal. This is fact !   Also,  Portugal's substitute team is better than the England's prime team. Don't forget that Figo will play and so will Ronaldo. Nuno Gomes is there and so is Postiga. Most important of all, SCHOLARI is there. remember. Scholari has a multitude of top world class players to chose from. Finally don't forget that the easiest thing wo win against is England's manager. Most English hate him for he is right idiot and a BAD useless manager. If we had to face a more serious team than the English then we would have to worry... but England ? LOLOL  that is the best team to meat in the circumstances. Nao te preocupes. O grande problema era a Holanda and referees (arbitros).

England for sure. Don't forget Neville and Ferdinand, and as Man Utd fan also we still have some loyalty to Beckham as well. (not his fault he left.) Besides I lost all respect for Argentina with that goal and drug cheat Maradona. It was his Hand of God goal that cost England in the 1986 World Cup. Time for some payback.

You're on the right track by omitting England and Brasil. Italy would be a good choice, if not then my support would go to Germany.
