    It's too hot out here to watch football let alone play in it. Minutes in the legs and that's all that matters

    Meanwhile France lost to Ivory Coast and Spain drew against Iraq. These friendlies mean nothing.

    England should feel very relieved. NZ were all over them and had NZ had just a lot more quality in every position the score line would have been even uglier for England.
    Perhaps even 0-0.

    Went to the match in Tampa. Heat was something else. Watched most of the match in the shade of the concourse. Great stadium though.

    They will be if the semis are made up of new Zealand, ivory coast, Iraq and Scotland.

    I thought you were serious until you added Scotland on the end.

    Think Elliot Anderson is the key for us this summer. Alongside Rice I genuinely believe we have one of the best midfield partnerships in the tournament. 

    If he can play at the standard he’s shown so often then we could be on to something good. 
    I like the look of Anderson, but international tournament football is a whole different level to anything he would've experienced before.
    He's going to be in a pivotal role and he'll have to hit the ground running.
    I do worry about the heat.
    I watched Brazil last night and they just looked so much more comfortable than our huff and puff last night.

    I hope Toney is in the squad just to take penalties. He looked gash to me last night.

    Brazil were playing their second friendly and in a cooler place. Hard to remember but our tournament starts so much later than everyone else that we’re nearly a week behind them at this stage

    Almost like he’s been playing in a pub league for two years.

    A pub league that’s bloody hot though. Could be useful.

    Something's going on I tell you.
    It’s because the four gooners are arriving.
