A great draw from England's point of view. According to John Motson, who knows everything about football, England have never played Algeria, even in a friendly. They've got a few players in the English divisions but should not pose a problem for the national team. Ditto Slovenia, although they have beaten Gus Hiddink's Russia in the qualifiers. That only leaves the USA and on paper we are the stronger team - but you never know!! However, I think the outcome at the group stage will be England and USA going through in 1st and 2nd places respectively. What happens after that will be the interesting part....
