Probably doubtful. They'll be our hardest group game yet I'm still not worried about Saturday

[ItsDave]

They're our (England) first game yet so if we do lose to the U.S, most of the population is going to be pretty annoyed.

[Bun]

no, they cannot.

[W00TZEH]

yes they can, but they wont.

[luce]

they could.. but so could north korea.

Hahahaha :L They've got Brazil, Portugal and Ivory Coast and FIFA have told them they can't use their third designated keeper (who is a striker) as an outfield player. Serves them right too, cheating *****

[CHA!NGANG]

1/32 chance.

[Shar]

LOL...
Hmm if all the other amazing teams have suddenly become very crap - yes - but I doubt that so no they have no chance at all.

Some people are underestimating the USA and others are overestimating them. In typical English fasion we will start this major tournament as we always do, with a draw (or possibly win by 1 goal).

I was on this site with aload of americans on and they were all like "This is our year" at first I was like ahhahahhaaahahhaa but then I kind of expect them to say that seeing as americans have the "WE ARE BETTER THAN EVERYONE AT SPORTS" attitude

for some reason people think america will win it just because they have tim howard in goal :S

[Stryderman]

They cant win it due to the fact mexico is winning

[Stephen]

What did you say stryder?

[Swastika]

they are ranked 14th, so they must be decent, but they wont win the world cup.

haha yeah i heard that, i'd be annoyed if i was that player because he obviously won't get on in goal. What a waste of a world cup for him.

[Stryderman]

HAVE IT

He won't even be played now. They'll probably fake an injury to get him replaced with an actual keeper (think they can do that up to 24 hours before their kick-off). I'd love for him to stay though and both their keepers got injured so he had to play :P

See how well they play against ingland first, then maybe make a judgement.

Ranking system is ****. You have to consider that America's competitive games are in teh CONCACAF region against teams like Canada and El Salvador...

[StefanWolves]

The USA should be under-estimated, they're nothing.

No USA cannot and will never win the world cup.
