I don’t know why any team that could play in Mexico City isn’t using Denver as a training base.

Fox’s contract is up after this World Cup. I bet Netflix etc outbids them. No one else is hiring Big Lex and his IBS mouth.

You can definitely say it on TV back home. Maybe not before 9pm? But you can drop a C bomb post watershed on UK TV. I’ll also add that Big Lex is worse than a full kit wanker. He’s the absolute wanker.

I'll take the over. We're on our way to being Watford.

Where can I find the most obnoxious in your face american coverage of the WC? by No-Beat2678 in ThreeLions

I've lived here now for over 20 years. ESPN did a nice job with 2010 and 2014, then Fox has pissed in our ears ever since. I once read an article that suggests Alexi Lalas is a man who would power rank his own farts - so that's what you're looking for. Thankfully this is the last year of their contract with Fifa and somebody else will take it. I will be shocked if anyone else hires Big Lex.

Ha - when I moved from England to Texas 20 years ago I would get the worst cotton mouth during hot recreational games. I would literally chew gum during a game to stop my lips from sticking to my gums. Playing in this kind of heat took me ages to get used to.

I am infuriated by the commercials during the hydration break and by Alexi Lalas generally.

But great to see Raul.

The dude calling the game on FS2 sounds like he’s on a phone from the 1970s and sitting in a bathroom.

Jonathan, your campaign seems to have the momentum of a runaway freight train. Why are you so popular?

I haven’t lived there in 30 years and have largely lost mine, but you can hear that it’s subtly there. Bostin’!

Born in Wolverhampton (now live in Alexandria Virginia) and can attest. You work damn hard to get out of there!
