    Reus a major doubt for the World Cup.

    Lovren played the whole match against Australia. Not one of his best game. Defensively mostly sound, but his distribution was very poor. Croatia won 1:0, Jelavić scored.

    These games are akin to pre-season types, ie; pay little/no attention to them. You really think any Brazilian player is gonna risk getting injured one week before they open up the World Cup in front of 80,000 Brazilians?

    What's more, Serbia aren't even in the WC, so of course they are going for it.

    Wow, if Miroslav Klose can score 2 goals at the World Cup he will become the leading scorer in World Cup history.

    Well all of Gerd Muller's came in the 6 yard box! Surely they shouldn't count either. ;)

    BBC replaying West Germany vs England from Italia '90, including text build-up, video build-up and actual footage from the game.

    They're using all the original footage from the build-up and match back in 1990. Pretty nostalgic.

    Think that was the last World Cup I properly watched. Genuine bit of excitement. Nearly got it back at Euro '96, but since then I haven't realy bothered. Might take a peek at this.

    In a strange way, of the Saints related stuff, i'm most stoked to see Morgan getting his first cap.

    Yeah, same here. For me, only Portugal picking José for their squad would have topped it. Or maybe Clyne getting the recognition he deserves.

    For some reason this video makes me laugh. Maybe Alexi Lalas's massive ginger lid.

    Have they any more warm up games? I think he'll get some minutes at some point.
