Good luck to England...It has to face Croatia again in the World Cup qualification!

England should not underestimate Ukraine...Shevchenko (Chelsea) will play for Ukraine.

Stupid question time... I don’t follow professional soccer at all but am wondering what the deal is with Beckham being recalled to Europe to play. I’m guessing that his contract with the Galaxy isn’t exclusive. How does that work?

My apologies in advance for my ignorance on this.

I think England has a chance of making it.

But they are definitely going to need Klinsmann as coach (see below) or the slim margin of viable talent they are actually able to get onto the field can be too easily mismanaged.

Top priority right now must be an immediate improvement in their daily diet (fresh fruits and veggies for essential vitamins, real milk for strong bones, no more binge drinking) so they don’t injure themselves in training so much.

GROUP FOUR

(Germany, Russia, Finland, Wales, Azerbaijan, Liechtenstein)

Germany, who have lost only two of the 64 World Cup qualifiers they have played, should top the group with Russia finishing ahead of Finland and Wales.
