Could it get any better if Englund got pumped out in the 1st round

[The Dogfather]

I'm not English and I'm ragin been looking forward to this game all week and this was sh1t I mean this was second division in Scotland football...at best. Capello needs to change the formation and listen to his players.
Everyone seemed nervous for some reason Rooney was dire, gerrard too. I think your right prediction draw last game, England go home.

Rooney has been dire both games, Gerrard was played out of position for Barry, Heskey was hopeless.

If you are going to play Barry then either drop Lampard and play Barry alongside Gerrard or drop Heskey and play Gerrard behind Rooney. However, Barry for me was out of practice and shouldn't have been on the pitch.

My team for Wednesday on the basis England need a win

.....................Hart
Johnson, Dawson/Upson, Terry, Cole
Wright-Philips, Barry, Gerrard, Cole
.................Crouch, Defoe

here is a question for you.

Do you think Alex Ferguson will phone Rooney and tell him to get his act in to gear. Alex is bound to be annoyed with his boys performance

No, he'll be on the phone to the Glazers pleading with them not to sell him to Real Madrid for £80m to help the Glazers debts....you heard it here first! All I'm gonna say is Rooney is not worth £80m!

I recon they are playing so poorly because they have yet to play against quality opposition. You tend to find this in all sport that a team will raise its game when playing against a better team, and drop its standards when playing against a poorer team. The annoying thing is, if England beat Slovenia on Wednesday night, and USA draw with Algeria, then England will top the group :(

The best we can hope for is another England draw, and a USA win and then we can go and greet the players at Heathrow on Thursday

I think he’ll stick with his no1, I don’t give Joe much chance as well of starting. As for Roooney he’ll start. But your starting eleven might do better than his......

Tsk! Tsk!

I'd go with
--------------James

Johnson Upson Carrager Cole

W-Phillips Lampard Barry Cole

--------------Gerrard

--------------Rooney

Rooney playing in his Man United role on his own up front, and that way you have Gerrard running on with his finishing too! And if thats not working bring on Crouch and Defoe and play a straight 4-4-2!

I reckon Rooney is doing a great job of covering up an injury, no way he can be that poor, even his ball control is sloppy

Agreed, he doesn't look fit. Having watched him a lot last season he wasn't closing down the way he does at Utd, and it's not like him not to do that unless he isn't fit. Why on earth Joe Cole hasn't played at all I'll never know.

The Dutch looked quite good today, did enough but could have scored more, and great display in the Australia Ghana game.

Just caught up with the France Teams actions this week, what an absolute disgrace to Football.
Since they cheated to get into the competition in the first place i really hope they are even more proud of themselves.
Anelka, wtf, what planet is he on, over inflated ego, over paid, does he not realise it's a team game, eejit.

I certainly have no sympathy for them at all
