    Posting a new thread for every match posters wish to comment on. That way we don't get confusion, and posters can easily refer back to a topic. I'll maybe dress this one up later, as per usual match threads [hopefully this'll do]. The usual suspects can provide threads for Spain v Netherlands and Chile v Australia. Do your usual stuff. Please make them on the day of the match. We don't want the board entirely cluttered. :)

    Cheers.
    Mexico v Cameroon

    I was neutral on this, but if you have space on your Cameroon bandwagon, I'll jump on if I may.

    Go Cameroon..!

    It wouldn't particularly surprise me if this game turned out to be better than Spain v Holland.

    Mexico have an appalling manager. Go Cameroon, you got this.

    Hopefully an entertaining game. Cameroon have got a few decent players: Eto'o, Song, Aboubaker. Hernandez and Dos Santos will be a threat for the Mexicans.

    If they play. Their manager prefers domestic Mexican players.

    Hernandez has been dropped by Mexico - he'll be on the bench.

    Oribe Peralta should do a decent job if he starts. Hernandez hasn't had much of a season, in fairness. Not starting Giovani would be ridiculous though; it's bad enough that they don't have Vela.

    Oh I didn't realise. That's a shame, Hernandez is excellent.

    Yep, I always route for the West-African teams. Unless against England.

    It's because they're not terribly good right now.

    A hat-trick from the bench from someone who hasn't scored in 9 games for his country - that would be impressive!
