CoolMyth SG

Got insider info? Laughing

Manager433 SG

Not yet but some interesting info to take note of. England giving 0.5 ball to Portugal. And Portugal got a few players not available for this important match due to suspension. Yet handicap is England give 0.5 ball. Fishy rite?

Cool

In Euro 2004, England lost to Portugal. So by rite now the odds should be Level ball or 0.75 to Portugal. I strongly believe that England should be able to beat Portugal by a goal or more.

England lost to Portugal 3-2 in Euro 2000 and on penalties after a 2-2 draw in Euro 2004. Without Deco and possibly Ronaldo, there is still Simao , Boamorte and Quaresema to choose from. Don’t forget Simao is the player which sent Liverpool and Man U out of Champs League. Portugal outclassed England in both encounters and I think Scolari has something up his sleeves against the team he rejected to coach. I think he will love to meet Brazil in the semifinals that is if Brazil get pass France. I just cannot see England beating Portugal. A draw perhaps and yet another penalty disaster for England.

Goodbye England ~~ No one else plays such "attractive " football like you guys. The "best" thing about England is you guys boosting that you all WILL or CAN win the world cup , forgetting the likes of Brazil, Argentina , Spain , Italy , France and Germany . Well done, you won't be missed.

My advice to England = Eat humble pie, you need lots of it. Rolling Eyes

dave101 SG

Portugal beat Mexico without key players like deco and ronaldo, this shows it has a strong reserve. Predict Portugal to draw or win at 90 mins. Smile

dun b surprise to c portugal field a 5-5-0 formation.. hold the english to a draw n kick them out through penalties..

I think this England squad for WC2006 are one of the best they put out so far. However the qualifying and second rounds performance leave much to be desired. It seem a case of coach not able to make full use of the players in the formation. He seem not able to match the player capability in which area well. His formation is questionable at times facing different opponent.

However with Portugal bruised encounter with Holland, this may tip in England favor. Unless Portual second string players can perform magic, I tip a 2-0 in England favor. If come to penalties shoot-out I tip Portugal to win cuz history had shown England are real bad in such situation. The atmosphere always overtake them Mr. Green

Thats because local papers tend to take sources from english papers. I feel italy and spain media also commect alot on their chances in the world cup, juz tat we dun get to read their papers. Laughing
