Obviously England are favorites.

Expect another solid defensive effort from T&T.

0-0 is possible.
England 1-0 on a setpiece goal seems likely.
0-1 T&T upset is a possibility.
 
Don't underestimate TT. They've been stopping everything England's been trying to do and just playing it slow. Hislop is insane in the goal.

That was one hell of a save by England at around 45min. TT was about 4 inches away from having the first goal...

Almost 0-1 for T&T. Kind of rooting for T&T at the moment. :smile:

It's easy to root for the underdog. Especially after T&T showed such poise against Sweden.
 
About time! Crouch makes it 1-0 to england.

EDIT: 2-0 now, thanks to Steven Gerrard. The scoreline is unfair to T&T, they played a valiant game.

Awesome game.

T&T didn't play that well. England out shot them like 5 to 1!

Good defensive effort but that's it.
 
Well, at least I got the score line right this time.
 
T&T got a very nice goal at the end, however from offside.

aggreed, its hard to score when u have 10 men defending... TnT weren't that good, they were very lucky because they lost there shape completely by the end of the match

My bet is that England will win 2-0.

You have the gift, should have put a bet on:wink:

I also with the power of the "sight" predict 2-0.

So did lampard, but after the whistle was blown...:rolleyes:
 
England's problem seems to be that the other teams are pulling everyone behind the ball, killing our midfield play.

Which, of course, is what they should do to stop us.

It'll be interesting when we get to play some bigger teams, who will attack us, leaving big gaps for the likes of Cole to run in.

At the moment, we look like the Germans - scoring in the last 5 minutes :smile:
