How many goals has Defoe scored for England under Capello? Scores just about every time he comes on I reckon. They use him as a sub and hewreaks havoc on the defence. He's a great option to partner Rooney. They also have the likes of Carlton Cole and Bent who should get a look if theykeep up their blazing form. And to add to that, they have wingers for days (SWP, Milner, Lennon, Young, Walcott, Becks). All of these players can create chances. These are all the weapons at Capello's disposal, but being the Italian tactician he is, he will rely on his solid defence.Originally Posted by Carlos Tevez
England aint winning !##$. Let the media hype them up as usual.
Who's their 2nd striker? Jermaine Defoe? Emile Heskey? Peter Crouch?
They wont be able to score goals when it matters.

im thinking usa is going to be the head of a group, and mexico will end up in a really tough group, or even the death group, all of this because mexico did not head the concacaf qualification
I think making it out of the group would be par for the course (depending upon the group), quarters would be as far as this team could go in myopinion.Originally Posted by Carlos Tevez
The U.S. team is strong mentally and physically. I've never seen them give up in a match or come out flat after a tough defeat. Their conditioning is great compared to other countries. They have a great keeper in Tim Howard. Other than that, the U.S. lack enough talent to make the semis. You cant simply will yourself to victory in the World Cup.
Na man no way US gets a seed unless FIFA radically changes the formula.Originally Posted by ballin 2k3

i agree for the most part but i would not want to face Serbia..they are stacked defensively with Ivanovic, Vidic and Subotic..then through themidfield they have Dejan Stankovic (Inter) and Milos Krasic as well, everytime ive seen him play he runs circles around the opposition..watch for this kid tobe in the EPL soon, he wants out at CSKAOriginally Posted by socluis90
Worst case scenario:
USA, Ivory Coast, Portugal, Brazil
Best:
South Africa, Algeria, Serbia, USA <===NOT GONNA HAPPEN lol.
I don't think Brazil would be the worst from pot 1 to be in a group with. They have some familiarity with them and will carry someconfidence from the Confed Cup encounter. A squad like Germany though would absolutely punish them, IMO. Worst case would be Germany, England, orHolland.Originally Posted by socluis90
