    I had to hear all this talk about Spain during the World Cup. Last I checked, they got the best keeper in the world. Didn't give up a goal after the first match in the 2010 World Cup, and he's doing the same again. England has no chance vs Spain. They won't be able to hang with the Spanish style of play.

    Casillas is a superstar, no doubt that. He certainly kept them in that game yesterday.

    No, England isn't going to beat Spain, Rooney or no Rooney. Still think Germany might though.

    i see you are in Phoenix like me. a friend of mine is at George and Dragon and says its crowded and rowdy. if England goes through i think im gonna go there this weekend for the quarters.

    have you found any soccer bars in Phoenix? i been to Robbie Fox's in Tempe for some Arsenal games but i havent found any bars dedicated to soccer and thats a shame.

    This Spanish team is about to do something no team EVER has, win 3 major tournaments in a row, and be favored to win the next world cup. I'd consider that the best team in history. Trust me, they're not losing any sleep.

    If they didn't kick Pele out of the tournament. in 1966 (he was carried out on a stretcher), they would have won it 4 times in a row (1958, 1962, [1966], and 1970) the Spanish isn't even half way there... Just observation.

    Can never get in the George. I remember during the World Cup, the que was out the door at 6am!

    Just down from the George is Rosie Mccaffreys, an Irish bar. Watched the World Cup there, it was a great atmosphere, but standing room only!!!

    Edit. There's a bar near me called Pita Jungle. The owner is football mad, so can always catch a game there. Sadly I have been a life long Southampton supporter, not much chance of seeing their games lol

    I'm a Germany fan but have been keeping up with all the teams (I'm new to watching soccer so I am not familiar with a lot of names) My son is also rooting for England :)
