The Kaiser speaketh...

Visiting England as part of an "organizing committee welcome tour" (huh?), Franz Beckenbauer said that it is "impossible" for Germany to be knocked out of the first round of the cup.

Seems like that's just asking for the Fates to smite them down this summer. (That group isn't that easy.)

In another pronouncemeent, the Kaiser says that Gus Hiddink should be the next England coach. I'm sure the FA will be mightily relieved to hear that, because you know the one person the English always consult before hiring a new manager is Franz Beckenbauer....
