FIFA World Cup 2010 - Group Stage

I still think they’ll win this - the US defence doesn’t look too tight. The full backs are right out on the line being occupied by the wingers so there’s space inside. This DeMerit chap is a lumbering piece of shit and the other guy, while a good player, is only back after missing practically the entire season. The fact that England haven’t created much says a lot about the dearth of passing football they’re playing but Lennon’s pass for Heskey’s one on one showed they actually don’t have to do anything special to get in. They’ll surely create a couple more chances of this ilk and take one.

This is fucking great TV! Jamie C should have gone on holiday.

Young Findley looks a handy footballer, bags of pace…Rio’s calming influence is badly missed

Fuck it anyway. Carragher’s pace there. :lol:

good call puke! damn unlucky

Carragher in slow motion there.

Green prob deserved his luck there, saved by a post. If that had gone in he’d be as well head off to Iraq.

Why didn’t he hit it higher George? That part of the goal was wide open if he got his head up.

Hesksey has been Englands best player so far.

Fat Frank has been pure dog shit today! It’s great viewing. :smiley:

Yeah, I hadn’t initially realised that the shot was scuffed so badly. If that had slipped through his hands and into net then he’d have been as well retiring after the game.

Christ, these two at the back for England will be destroyed as the tournament develops.

If the States have any pace on their non playing roster they’d do well to get it on now. jamie C is there for the taking, its there for Team America.

Tydsley nearly came when Rooney had that shot.

just looked up to see what the craic is with the great hope Freddy Adu. he’s at some shit Greek club after playing with a shit portuguese club. 21 years old now and the hopes they once had seem well gone. didnt make the 30 man provisional panel for the world cup even.

There’s very little moral courage in this England team.

Anyone got suggestions for tomorrow tabloid headlines? I’m thinking Green fingers.

Seems like all the hype was much Adu about nothing.

Trevor Steven isn’t too enthused by his nation’s performance. ‘Disjointed’, ‘woeful’, ‘calamity of errors’.

Onyeawo(sp) has had a fine second half
