I think he means predicting the players who get the cards.

Basically unless the refs ignore the instructions from on high that sending off people is wrong (I love how the FA fix it, if you send off a player as a ref you're automatically marked down by the reviewer for "losing control of the match") and shouldn't be done, then we'll see little to no sendings off.

What'll actually happen is that there will be a few in the first round, and then after that there'll be a clamp down for all but the most egregious examples (and if it's a case like the last final, where the game should have been abandoned after c. 30 mins for the Netherlands not being able to field seven players, and Spain given a 3-0 walkover, clamped down even for them), so we'll see two or three in the first week and the same over the rest of the 56 matches.

Only player you need to know is Tim Cahill. Absolute certainty to win the golden boot.

Didn't watch any football the last couple of years tho, but should be pretty much the same.

Go on then, I'll join in smile

(Tho I will likely sit out the Golden Boot one coz that requires knowing too many names, guessing between team names for games is a lot easier!)
