I reckon those in bold are the favourites to go through - but that ain't how it always works. I reckon England might struggle TBH. The African nations are pure unknown quantities and well capable of throwing a spanner in many teams works.

Anyone hear Gary Lineker and co on BBC tv talking about how it's the best draw England could have got. Trinidad are the third team in their group btw. T&T are probably the only team that they'd be fairly sure of victory, even at that, they might cause an upset.
The English media do really feck themselves up by saying such sh!te. Hope Sweden and the others kick the sh!te out of them. Teach them a lesson like

The Spain group is a bit of a joke.

Avery John v Wayne Rooney, bring it on!
It's a great draw for England. The group is one that they should win as they are the best team, they will probably have qualification wrapped up before the Swedish game. Meanwhile they will more than likely be playing Poland in the second round, which is a game they would also be strongly fancied to win.Anyone hear Gary Lineker and co on BBC tv talking about how it's the best draw England could have got

Basically, they have the Quarter Final in the bag if they play anywhere near what they are capapble of. Then, who knows how far they could go. They could even win it.
In saying that, I hope Avery and co. knock the stuffing out of them and that they're on the first plane back to En-ger-land.
Thats gas!!!
I've a feelin' that Italy might struggle in their group - not easy at all, but as usual they'll probably sneak through.
Can't wait for Argentina - Holland match.
almost a replay of the 1990 group with Italy, USA and Czechoslovakia in the same group.
Thats a tough group, if the US gets past the first round again, I think Euros will be less inclined to dismis them. Italy are nortoriously poor starters so you never know what will happen.

does anyone think the draw is fixed ?
Even though it has been suggested that there won't be a 'group of death' in next year's World Cup due to the qualification failure of the top three African nations, I believe the group consisting of Argentina, Holland, Ivory Coast and Serbia/Montenegro surely represents the nearest thing to such a group.
Avery John V Wayne Rooney should be an intrigueing battle.
Nil Satis Nisi Optimum
I think the days of the US being dismissed out of hand are coming to an end. The States always had the "surprise element" going into previous finals as everyone underestimated them. I doubt that thats goin' to happen this year.
If it does then either Italy or the Czech republic WILL NOT get through the first round.
I doubt people like Matthaus and Pelé would risk their integrity, so no I don't think it was fixed anyway. Though judging by the conspiracy theories thread in the off-topic section it seems that some people are desperate to believe conspiracies despite conclusive evidence!
I feel sick. Look at that Swiss group, that could have been us. And they're playing in the Westfalenstadion too - by far the coolest stadium in Germany. I had TST-5 tickets. Feck.
tbh lads im not overally sad that we missed out.. its not like the late 80s when we had a really good team. the team we have at the moment is old and poor with no real class about it. It could well be another WC1994. Ill watch the futty without to many hangups (even if england get to the final)
Depends on what you mean by fixed,for a start by keeping the so called "big teams" apart is a way of "fixing" the draw before you even pull out a single Team.
If you mean the actual drawing out of the teams...........highly unlikely/improbable.
whats wrong with that ?Anyone hear Gary Lineker and co on BBC tv talking about how it's the best draw England could have got
it pretty much is
