Sweden got an easy group. We should go through this one without much trouble.
"I used to be 6 foot 2 with curly hair, look what it's done to me"

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

Yep, that group it's really open. Anyone except Faroe can qualify, not much difference between those teams.

I take it this was the boring shite that was on SS this morning, those fuckers really know how to big themselves up. Platini sliding down the chair had me switch off.

How's it there's only 5 teams in the final group?

Isn't that the one that France play in? No-one gets any points for those games.

I think both Russia and Austria are better than Sweden right now. Russia definitely, Austria possibly. By I'm a born pessimist.

Fuck, aye. Forgot about them. I don't know how though, one of my pet hates at the moment is all the back-handers going on at the top of the game.

I don't think Russia's all they're cracked up to be and Austria is in now way better than us. We're not that much better than Austria but I don't see us lose the away game this time. I'm hoping they play Arnautovic again.

You might be right, but I see the Austrian team being on their way up whereas we're on our way down.

Point being?

Neither is England, by the way, if we look at the international level.
