Think ultimately France's lack of genuine top quality firepower will be what stops them
Group E (Switzerland, Ecuador, Honduras, France)

annoying keeper. We should have won by 3/4.
Meh well - roll on Nigeria.
that ball wasn't close to the d
They looked like they really missed Valbuena.
If this France team wins the World Cup you can safely say they'd be the worst team to have ever won the World Cup
That said I think 2014 will produce the worst team to ever win the World Cup

Yep missed his craft

I want an African team or Greece to win

Nah just calling it as it is.
Do you not agree then? The calibre of football on display has been low
Do you guys not agree?! Which team in the World Cup has impressed?
Certainly not Greece
I know but I'd like to see them win.

Holland & Colombia
You must be hating football if you want Greece to win I reckon
Blimey Shaqiri Shakiri scored a fine hat trick
A lot of the big sides look good. Spain lost to the Swiss last time. Teams often lose or draw a group game and still win.
I still fancy the Germans. Dutch have been excellent. France look good.
I don't hate football. I just don't particularly like the current state it's in. It's all about athletes and football by numbers.

If we only sign one stocky, creative, midget, magician midfielder from group E, I hope it's him. We could do with his craft.
Funny you didn't mention it until England lost.
I came into this World Cup with optimism. Probably all those colourful adverts did the trick.
I'm not really fussed by England I just don't like the natural distain foreigner folk hold for us.

The magic dwarf, I hadn't considered him until now.

Ah Dula they don't, nobody here was giving England too much of a hard time.
A lot of us even wanted them to get through.
Hmmm well maybe I just brace myself for it too much.

This is just another one of your clever jinxes, right?
No clever jinx here. I only do that when I'm bothered about who wins and doesn't
Still amazed that some folk believed I felt that sure spurs would win the league
Shaqiri was outstanding today.
Kos' performance was lauded and applauded post match.
Happy for him that he gets to show his worth with France too.
He deserves that starting spot.
He got hooked up for a chat with his Dad after the game.
No mistaking his père
Amazing to think that he was playing in Ligue 2 as late as 2009.
Sakho on the other hand was absolutely terrible, I thought. He looked slow, clumsy and out of his depth. He looked the same way playing for Liverpool last season.
Koscielny was excellent and that while playing on the right side of defence. A lot of people have said he isn't as good there which was rubbish.
Not a game to judge his performance as Ecuador were ultra-defensive even before they had Valencia sent off. I am impressed Sakho managed to look shit in these circumstances.
I like the look of that Enner Valencia. He is a big lad, has pace to burn, seems to have a knack for scoring, and did you guys see his leap for that header against France?!
Bah, did you see Kos' leap over the top of him near the touch line?
