I know about nine guys who are convinced this is Englands year without a trace of irony. Zero expectation, a squad mixture of untried kids and old bezzers, unsuitable climate and so on they'll admit but then they'll wrap it up with some sort of 'they won't expect it from us, that's why we'll turn them all over'.
I know dick all about football but after a while I end up being convinced myself.
Nah, not going to win. Still 100% behind England - if it gets boring I just look for the LUFC flags in the crowd instead

True. That was good timing! Though I do hope Gary Cahill plays well (and doesn't get injured) and they should've brought back JT.

Mine was "Vitson". Sounds like I'll be playing defensive midfield.
