It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

What are England going to do when teams stop them on the wings?

U17s - some good performances but penalties again.

Bale has now cemented his place in history as a footballing legend.

Can't wait til he signs for his home town club.

Great pity about Mo Salah getting injured so early. Pleasing though, to hear he has merely strained his shoulder ligaments and that his injury was not a dislocation. Consequently, he should be OK to represent Egypt in the World Cup. Healing time for it is reported to be around a couple of weeks or so.

Great pity about Loris Karius losing his focus, first with the silly, silly throw straight at the feet of Karim Benzema and then secondly, with Bale's long shot from well outside of the penalty box that went straight at him and into his hands - and then immediately out of them into the back of the net! Grrr!

Perhaps he wouldn't have made the second error if he hadn't made the first one? It's possible the first mistake absolutely shattered his confidence and he just couldn't get over it.

A truly fantastic game and Gareth Bale's utterly brilliant overhead kick will just keep being played on football TV shows for an eternity.

Spanish clubs have edge over everyone else. Ramos must be an avid watcher of WWE.

Klopp fails because he has one plan; sadly for him players with good technique can pass around the press.

Salah is happy to initiate contact, start the holding, begin the tumble; he played that game and lost.

Well the world cup will be upon us once again soon......getting my "disappointed look" ready again..gotta be prepared.......no surprises this time round with too much hope.....(used to be for women....now for soccer......euhh...less hassle and more reliable )…takes a lot of practice believe me....(:))…….

The Germans have won on penalties....aggghhhh…...the Spanish are ahead…..eugghhhh…..the French are two nil up.... grrrr…...you know ….it eases the pain......just try it......

Don't fret, Trump has cancelled the World Cup.

France, Belgium, Brazil & Germany should all top their respective groups.
Spain / Portugal a tricky one, imo.
Can't decide where Argentina will come. Very few of their squad play in the same team or League.
France to reach the final for me.

Got me England flags ready for the front of the house and which I'll be putting up around the time of England's first match.

Here's hoping I get to keep them up longer than for the last World Cup, where you might remember we got knocked out very early on. This left us in a position where to keep the house flags up did nothing more than just remind us of our utter embarrassment.

I do think now though, that with the likes of Marcus Rashford firing them in, we do stand a good chance of doing well this time. And the England manager seems OK too.

So, fingers crossed.

Isn't he the guy who didn't trust the UK banking system and put his money into an offshore K2 account??? ;o)

Brazil to win it. They have looked good for the past two years.

England- Hope its not another shocker.

Argentina - albeit I wonder what their bonuses will buy once they get home

Well, we don't hear anything about him in the news....

I wonder how Sir Alex Ferguson is getting on at the moment?

I don't know you can buy quite a lot in Spain. Unlike Brasil, if you can possibly forget the horror suffered at the Mineirão at the last world cup, Argentina don't seem to click as a team. Familiar problem.

If he is speaking, he is probably still cursing Uruguay.

Anyone want an impartial opinion from someone who's team decided not to qualify thanks to Coleman ?

Tough sh&t ur getting one in the morning anyway :-)

I'm surprised Spain's odds haven't changed. In fact, they seem to have got slightly better than France now. Corals had them both at 6/1.

What we need is England to score more goals than Belgium against Tunisia and Panama therefore only needing a draw to top the group in the final game against them,.....I think we can do quite well in this world cup !.....

I think we can do quite well in this world cup !..... 😂...good old RF.
