Thanks mate.
Yeah, England's group is about as easy as you could want. In England, there's a football saying 'there are no easy games in football'. But it's a lie - there are easy games, and we have two of them with Trinidad and Tobago and Paraguay.
But what happens when we're in the second round? It would be great if Walcott were to shine, and indeed he might, but it's just so dodgy. Only four strikers, and two of them are injured...
I'm looking forward to group D, with Mexico, Iran, Angola and Portugal. There's a nice range of ability, style and geography in that group.
I'm also looking forward to group H - I want Ukraine and Tunisia to go through at Spain's expense too. Ukraine were fantastic in qualifying - the first team to qualify from any European group, and I think they may do OK. They may fail miserably, though.
