    Russia are difficult, Israel are in the unknown, as are Northern Ireland, so could have been a lot easier look at Norway and Greece.

    Yeah, they should give us challenging teams so that England can get utterly outplayed and outclassed without having to wait until 2014.
    Also you should keep in mind that Ukraine beat England in the last WC qualifiers, and Croatia beat them twice in the Euro 08 qualifiers.

    Well they were in the 5th pot, very good chance of 3rd, should finish ahead of Georgia.

    Hopefully! I can't see them doing too well though, they'll have lost Jari Litmanen by then as well as Forsell and Jaaskelainen! I'm just hoping they have some youth coming through or they're not even gonna beat Belarus...

    Litmanen still playing he was classed as a veteran 10 years ago (ish) when he signed for Liverpool.

    Yeah he's about 38 now but still the best player in their team <laugh> I doubt he'll be playing in 3 years time but i honestly wouldn't be surprised if he still was!
