    Altidore officially ruled out for Sunday's game. We all knew it was coming but now its official, wonder if Jurgen sticks with Iceman or does something else.

    I said in the US thread that I think he should start Wondo. I think you need someone in there that can convert chances and that is what he does. If there's a lead, then you bring in the kid because he's better holding the ball.

    Wow, what is the CIV coach thinking? Drogba on the bench to start again?!?

    Lol, c'mon man. Pep would train Spain in a heartbeat, he would also train Catalunya but as a hobby or maybe on special occasions not as a regular/permanent thing. Depending on how Spain does at the Euros I wouldn't be surprised to see him take over for the 2018 WC.

    Wayne Rooney's was pretty bad against Italy, but this was worse. One-on-one with the keeper, and no defender anywhere near him. He even had time to pull it down probably.

    I don't mind ANY of these memes... in fact, the more, the better. :grin:
    Colombia's defenders are matching everything. He will come in with fresh legs in the middle of the second half and will score one. :eek:


    THIS WOULD BE ME AT THE WORLD CUP HAD I PLAYED:

    Wow, what a disastrous corner kick by CIV. What should have been an opportunity on their end turned into a goal on the other.

    Best WC in a while, yup. Great matches thus far, except for that one Nigeria game.

    Never seen a team like Columbia that has no idea how to just hold possession and ride the game out. They seem to go 100% attack mode at all times which is getting them into trouble.
