    I'll be there. I used to live in Brazil and my wife is from Curitiba so we don't need to worry about hotels. We managed to get tickets for all the games in Curitiba as well as the England group games and round of 16.

    Journey is a real killer though. 36 hours door to door and very expensive!

    Great tweet, "for years people have been asking why England can't play like Man Utd, well now they are".

    Any guesses on which muppets Hodgson is going to pick?
    I have already decided to root for Brazil after England gets knocked out as they have 4 of our players.

    This is what i'd like Hodgson to start with (i.e. all available Liverpool players, with the others fitting in around):

    -------------------------Hart-------------------------
    Johnson--- (I don't care)---(I don't care)---- Baines
    ------------------------Gerrard--------------------
    -------Sterling-------- Barkley -------Henderson-----
    ----------Rooney------ Sturridge--------------

    In fact, I'd like Hodgson to step down and let Rodgers try his hand.

    Two immediate observations on that lineup I just posted:

    1. This time last year I'd have shat myself if Henderson was anywhere near the England squad; and
    2. Hot damn, that is a tasty lineup. We wouldn't win it (lets not get carried away), but we'd take the game to each opponent, that's for sure.

    As a southampton fan I'd actually see lallana as a decent impact sub so won't mind if he doesn't start. Just hope he gets a good 30 mins at the end to show his stuff.

    At least if he comes on as a sub it is easier for hodgson to give him the free role he thrives in at southampton - Although obviously not to the same extent!

    That lineup does look pretty tasty but way too attacking for Hodgson I reckon. It'll probably look something like this:

    ------------------Hart--------------
    Johnson--- Jags------ Cahill----- Cole
    -------Gerard------Phil Jones--------
    Milner -------Wilshere----------Welbeck
    -------------Rooney----------------
