Now I've worked through the draw and I hope we lose by the odd goal and end up second. Much easier route with no big teams until the final (should Germany & Brazil win their group).
I foresee tears in Rio and Berlin tonight
Germany have had a massive jolt up the arse after Sweden.
Like one of those special Swedish massages?
Yes,we will know more tomorrow morning,but if the easier route is 2nd,then lets get beat.
Personally, I'm not bothered about routes to the final. As Gareth has said, we haven't won a single knock out game since 2006. Yes we'd all love to win it, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.
In terms of 'easy' routes... Germany lost to both Mexico and Korea (and made both look like world beaters), Brazil couldn't beat Switzerland, Argentina lost by 3 to Croatia, so it goes on. Go for the win against Belgium, build the momentum and let the other teams start to fear us!
I don't understand the whole 'easier route' debate. You only have to look at what happened in the Euros to know that such thinking is nonsense.
