Black Friday & Thanksgiving Day are two different days :grin:

We've never beaten the yanks in a competitive game. Will the miracle of Thanksgiving & Black Friday finally happen?

I don’t think it’s Armageddon if Kane sat this one out but I presume he’s been cleared to start.

Same team again for me, if we win the game we can change it around for the Wales match.

Expecting this one to be a slow burner. We may even need the obligatory 15min injury time to get over the line, but I am confident that we will do so and book our place in the knockouts.

Let's face it, we are better than them in every position. Other than Pulisic, there is not a single player in their side that would come close to our squad, let alone team. And even Pulisic would be on the bench at best.

UAS were made to look pretty ordinary by an equally pretty ordinary Wales side in the second half earlier this week, but they did pose a threat in the opening 30mins or so.

Same team, you can't make changes to a team that has won well and scored six goals. I don't see us coming flying out of the block in this game and racing to a 'job done' 3-0 lead like we did last week though. I'd expect us to be a little deeper, a little tighter and a little more patient.

England 1-0 win for me. Maybe 2-0 if USA try to throw too many forward chasing a point.

We call our national side the Three Lions. They call theirs the USMNT. What sort of cringe is that?

Shabu - is anyone on the wrong side of the pond even aware this game is happening?

Anyway, I think we'll dominate and win comfortably. There, I said it.

I'd consider resting Kane for this.

Anyone trying to get home on the A13 East from Canning Town onwards this afternoon for this one, maybe stay where you are & watch it in a pub...

Yeah, there is that.
Just don't want to risk his ankle, although the talk is that it's fine.

San Diego is a big football town. I think most of west coast America is. Most blokes under 40 have a favourite Premier League team. One bloke I work with even supports Norwich.

People here were actually quite hyped going into the Wales game and were quite deflated afterwards.

If we don't win today I won't hear the end of it. If the US win it will be massive here.

One thing though. I don't talk about football with people who call it soccer. I'm upfront about it and all my workmates are trained :grin:
