Didnt see your first question about Rooney, but the truth is that he had a quiet match for the first 65 or so minutes, Cherundolo and DeMerit did a good double job on him and Rooney is much worse when he has to go deep looking for the ball as he did in this game. Capello has a real problem with Rooney, he needs him to stay as a centre forward.

Algeria and Slovenia looked like two very average teams, I think England will beat both (I won't say it will be particularly impressive), and I think the US will beat Algeria but Slovenia might cause a problem as they a more defensive and set up compactly, the US need to make sure they take their chances in that one.
It will certainly be tough to break down Slovenia. A 0-0 draw might be something worth betting on.

Howard apparently checked out fine and should be able to play on Friday, thankfully.

A draw is a win if you're America. I wonder if the FIFA looks at it that way too..

I take it you got all three points for the game against England?
