GOALS GALORE AT WORLD CUP? YOU BET!

WITH THE official World Cup ball already causing controversy over its aero-dynamic qualities, William Hill are quoting odds that the record total of goals in a 32 country World Cup finals wil be beaten. The previous record total was 171 goals in 1998 and Hills offer 6/4 that 172 or more will be scored this time round (including extra time but excluding penalty shoot-out goals), 1/2 that 171 or fewer will be scored.’Every ball which appears at a tournament seems to create some sort of panic amongst keepers, concerned that it will make them look incompetent – but they’re probably getting their excuses in early if truth were told!’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
And Hills have also opened a book on how many goals England will score during the tournament, and offer:
0…..80/1 1…..50/1 2……33/1 3………20/1 4…….16/1 5…….14/1 6…….12/1 7……10/1 8……9/1 9……8/1 10…….13/2 11……..9/2
12…………11/2 13 or more….10/3

Keeper backed to play longest:
WILL FABIO GO GREEN?

ROBERT GREEN, once the 11/2 outsider to start in goal for England against USA is now down to 6/4 to do so with William Hill who have lengthened David James from 4/6 to 8/11 favourite while Joe Hart is now the 6/1 outsider.
Hills have also cut Green from 12/1 to 10/1 to play the greatest number of minutes of any player for England during the tournament, a market in which Ashley Cole and John Terry are 9/2 joint favourites with Hills who also offer:5/1 G Johnson, 11/2 David James, 6/1 R Ferdinand, 13/2 F Lampard, 9/1 S Gerrard, 10/1 R Green, 12/1 G Barry, 12/1 W Rooney, 16/1Joe Hart, James Milner, 20/1 L King, 20/1 M Carrick, 25/1 J Cole, 33/1 J Carragher, 33/1 S Warnock, 40/1 A Lennon, 40/1 E Hesky, 40/1 P Crouch, 66/1 M Upson, 66/1 S Wright-Phillips, 100/1 J Defoe

FABIO SET TO JOIN GREEN PARTY?
William Hill have again cut Robert Green to start in goal for England against USA. “Green had drifted out to 11/2 but starting the first half against Mexico and pulling off some decent saves seems to have persuaded punters that he has every chance of heading the Keepers pecking order”, said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe as they shortened Green from 9/4 to 13/8 with David James now out to Even money favourite from 4/5. Joe Hart has drifted out to 10/3.

WAYNE ROONEY is red hot favourite to win BOTH the PFA Player of the Year and the Young Player of the Year Award, following the release of the shortlists. Hills offer 1/14 that the United and England star will land a memorable double – and 13/2 that he fails to do so. ‘Rooney has been around so long it is something of a surprise to find him still eligible to be the Young Player of the Year, but all the indications are that he will make off with both trophies’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

UNDER ORDERS FOR HIGHBURY HANDICAP? MOURINHO FAVOURITE TO SUCCEED WENGER……

WITH Arsenal’s failure to wi n a trophy for five seasons begininng to spark talk of when Arsene Wenger will cease to be Gunners’ boss, William Hill have opened a book on who will succeed him when he eventually stands down. And Hill have installed Joe Mourinho as their 6/1 favourite. ‘Given the nature of the job and the way Arsenal have played under Wenger you’d expect this to be one of the most sought after jobs in world football’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
William Hill now make Arsene Wenger 4/1 to quit Arsenal before the end of next season and 1/7 still to be there. Hills make the Gunners 4/9 to win nothing again next season. ‘Rumblings of discontent from trophy-less Arsenal fans will begin to make themselves heard now’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Hills believe that Sir Alex Ferguson may well stand down permanently as Manchester United boss in 2011 and offer 9/4 about that happening. ‘Sir Alex is unlikely to want to stay around and manage a side which is not competitive in the League or Europe and their last three performances have hinted that without a fit Rooney this United side is nothing special compared with previous United line-ups’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
