After my recent look at Groups A and B, it is time for us to switch gears and have a look at Group C, one that pits perennial underachievers England with the improving discipline of the USA, the silky skills of Algeria, and European makeweights Slovenia.

It should, in all probability, be a stroll for England, with the US and Algeria fighting it out for second place. Slovenia? Well, my guess is that they will be happy just to be there in South Africa, no disrespect to them.

So here we go for an analysis of Group C, one of the relatively weaker groups in the draw.

The big one in the group sees David Beckham and Landon Donovan come face to face. Donovan has previously criticized Beckham’s approach at LA Galaxy and although they have long since kissed and made up, Beckham, if selected, will add a little bit of spice to a contest which will already have sentimental value.

England will be wanting to exact a bit of revenge for their loss against the same opposition some 60 years ago.
