This saturday in Chicago
England are missing about 10 first choice players, but it should still be a decent match.
My prediction would be 2-2

| 2. I'll be in the stands. |
|
:)
I predict a statement by the American side - 2-0 wouldn't stun me, personally. As you mentioned, England is missing almost its entire first team, and most of the American players should be pretty strong since the MLS season is just beginning.

| 3. Don't expect to be excited by England. Half the team aren't travelling |
|
and Sven Gora Eriksson will make a full team substitution at half time like he always does, bringing on people no-one has evr heard of.
America can make all the statements they like, this is just a money spinner for the FA and no-one will give a toss. Sorry to put a dampener on things but i just hate the acquiesence of sport, particularly my beloved football to money.
Travel to Europe if you want to see proper football. Passion, pride, unpredictable and at times highly dangerous. Love it.

| 4. Yeah I know they're sending a virtual B squad |
|
That's why I hope the USA wins and wins decisively. Make them think twice about it next time.

| 5. England won't care. Its so frustrating, but friendly matches such as this |
|
have no bearing on anything. You only see the proper teams in the cups or the qualifiers.
