I got 9/9 , it says excellent ,It says also ''You're as at home on the Trans-Siberian Highway as you are on the M25.'' Thats wrong I am at home on Highway 4 here! Mind you first time I got 3 correct ,some 6 hours later, I got a better score !! :-)

Henderson got nowhere near the Madrid midfielders and Milner's performance left me wondering why he is not in the England squad?

Lingard and Rashford are a million miles away from a World Cup winning team, but then again, so are England.

I think Milner has told Southgate he's retired from international football.

Is this a fix

The 2026 World Cup will be held in the United States, Canada and Mexico after their joint bid beat Morocco's proposal to host it.

The 'United 2026' bid was selected by Fifa member nations, winning 134 votes compared to 65 for Morocco.

The 2026 tournament will be the biggest World Cup ever held - with 48 teams playing 80 matches over 34 days.

All three countries get a free pass into the 2026 tournament - hmm

Spain will now be guided by former Real Madrid star Fernando Hierro, who takes over for the tournament.

Sepp Blatter has said he will attend the World Cup as a guest of Russian president Vladimir Putin.

Spanish managers are supposed to get Barca and RM players working as a team ... Hierro and his RM links might be an obstacle!

Four Sporting Lisbon players in the Portuguese squad have cancelled their contracts as fans assaulted them in the training ground.

The game between them will be fun!
