## Resource

England and Brazil got screwed by the World Cup draw. We break down who's got the best route to the final, who's got the worst, and how things changed after the group stage. Things are bad for Brazil, things are looking up for the USA, and England are about to find out what the Azteca feels like. Then we get into transfers: Elliot Anderson's £116m move to Manchester City, Gonzalo Ramos swapping PSG for Milan, and Arsenal's interest in Bruno Guimarães.
