Does that mean Chiles and McCarthy will also be banned?

Give me the vuvuzela any day over them two annoying pr*cks.

I was thinking the same thing all moaning about nowhere for little johnny and co to play and then fail to mention when they are provided with a team,ref and facillities etc they act like pr#*ks!

best handball ever

That Algerian keeper that looks like Scooter has just made Robert Green feel a tad better

Mentioned few minutes into game on my twitter that the keeper looked dodgy

I'd like to, you know, thank all the, you know, teletext editors for, you know, editing out all the, you know, 'you knows' from the interview with, you know, the England, you know, goalkeeper, when they, you know, reported his, you know, after match, you know, comments.


You know.

Im afraid I dont know!!

Comedy gold Andy Townsend telling Marcel Desailly how to defend

Nice opening win for the boys!!!


England watch out we are topping the group!

A goal every 70mins so far in the tournament

impressive start to the campaign for the Germans tonight

we MUST win our group now

Completely agree they were very good although the Aussies proved why they should stick to all the other sports and leave Football well alone.
Thats the Germans and South Korea who have impressed so far everyone else has been ordinary at best apart from a good 2nd half from Bafana Bafana.

Can’t see England doing much in this tournament to be honest. We have a goalkeeper whose incapable and a striker that came second best to Jermaine Beckford earlier this year.

Even more unbelievable is the weather over in that country that is bias to the more sun blessed lands of our rivals. No wonder why we only won this competition in our own country.

Perhaps the most disheartening is the lack of passion shown from the team so far. Whenever a majority of our squad has the heart in it to win is questionable.

A little blip.

We draw with Germany.

Australia beat Ghana.

We beat Australia.

Germany beat Ghana.

Simples.

Just so you know, half my players haven't played yet

And we should do.

Did you see algeria v slovenia? absolutely appalling teams. We should win both those games and top the group.

Thought we were solid against the USA. People should remember they are a decent team. They knocked argentina out of the CC and went 2-0 up against brazil. Don't think we'll see much change to the llineup except cole on the left instead of milner.

In fabio we trust.

Heskey had a good game.

By now you must surely realise he is not in the team to score goals. What he was there to do he did very well.

Need to improve 100%......right

So last night we were playing at 0% were we? USA are a good team and we were comfortable most of the game. They had one decent chance in the second half. If we we top the group and play like that we will most likely get past the 2nd round because we'll have more sharpness in the final 3rd to take advantage of the positions we created against USA.

Mine neither apart from my England and USA teams obviously

Heskey had a decent game. Most people can't get beyond the fact that his job is to work hard, and lay chances on for other people. Most of the good stuff which England did against the US came through him.

Shame he couldn't finish the one on one though

If Heskey had put in the same ineffectual performance that Rooney did, he'd have been crucified in the media and there would have been calls for him to be dropped.

Can anyone remember the last outstanding performance our supposedly world-class Scouse friend put in for England in a competitive game?

It's time the media and fans in this country faced up to the realisation that this England side is average at best, and the only reason the Premier League is so highly rated is due to its ability to attract top players from around Europe.

Lot's of keep ball and neat passing from holland so far.

But no end product in the final third.

Englands long balls up to heskey are more effective.

lol.

We've been a cats whisker from making the semis in the last 2 tournaments we've played.

Just because our style isn't flowing football like a spain or argentina or brazil doesn't mean we aren't a decent team.

Average at best? You should be executed for treason!

I know geography (along with forming a coherent argument) isn't one of your strong points Damo, but you do know what season it is in South Africa right now, don't you?
