Look out Belguim, the comeback is on

Owen is FAR superior to this turd.

It's genuinely mystifying to me that Dedryck Boyata is anywhere near that superior Belgian squad. Their insane firepower and horrendous defence could lead to an amazing game against England, who have a dodgy defence and an excellent strikeforce as well. Hopefully England will beat Panama and the two can just go at it.

Never forget...

18 Michael Owen Quotes

“It’s a good run, but it’s a poor run, if you know what I mean?”
“Footballers these days often have to use their feet.”
“He looks like a footballer.”
“They’re outswarming them!”
“He’s elbowed him in the head, but there’s nothing in it for me.”
“Alderweireld played really well last year for Tottenham, let’s hope he can transfer that form to Spurs this season.” [after playing for Spurs both seasons]
“That would’ve been a goal had it gone inside the post.”
“Whichever team scores more goals usually wins.”
“That’s a fantastic penalty, but he’ll be gutted it went wide.”
“It’s hit the facial part of his head, there.”
“What a shot! That’s completely unstoppable...but the keeper’s got to do better for me.”
“When they don’t score a goal, they hardly ever win the game.”
“If there’s a bit of rain about, it makes the surface wet."
“Pellegrini will speak to them and City will come out with a fresh set of impetus.”
“Do they deserve to win? No, Liverpool do. Which is why a draw is a fair result.”
“To stay in the game, you have to stay in the game.”
“When the ball is that still, it’s wobbling in the air.”
“That shot is impossible. I saw Yaya Toure do it once.”

Well this doesn't bode well for us.

Fizzer “but it’s raining”
Other bloke “I’m talking about back in the UK”
Fizzer “oh”

“You can’t have a barbecue in the rain!”
“Alright, Phil”

“But that’s my point, it’s raining, why would you barbecue?”

They are stringing out the penalty discussion on ITV.

Think I’m starting to get all footballed out

Yep felt like this yesterday probably doesn't help that I've been unwell all week so watched a lot more football than normal.

Carlos Vela has scored more goals this World Cup than Lionel Messi

He also didn’t know Uraguay had won the World Cup twice.

Granted some people won’t know that. But he’s paid to do his research and he’s just a terrible pundit especially compared to his brother.

Under the current plans there won't be anymore games as it will start with three teams in each group.
