I say now he has signed, transfer list him and get a decent fee

PR, we did have a back three Neill, Moore and Popovich

Australia very unlucky not to get anything. It got ridiculous to the point where there were four penalties given in a row to Brazil which piggy backed them up the field. They couldn't even touch them without them going to ground. Brazil showed why it is so hard for the smaller countries to be successful, Adriano off, Robinho on, Ronaldo off, Fred on, Emerson off, Silva on. It is never bloody ending. Have got a good feeling about the Croatia game, I think if we can play like that again AND TAKE THE CHANCES KEWELL!! then I think we can get to the second round. Emerton was fantastic today. Best game I have seen him play. Neill was MOM.

Excellent job by the US, I was one that envisaged a slaughter but they really played what many would say beyond their means.

They didn't play well because Argentina were all over them. If the goal had been in the final, in injury time and was for the win it would have the greatest goal ever. It was still the best team goal in a world cup I have seen. If it wasn't, name one better.

What a demolition. It doesn't help the poor serbs that they lost their best defender or the tournament and then another one in the warm up. They looked all over the place at the back, but Cambiasso's goal was the best team goal I have seen, including the replays of the 1970 Brazil goal. Class

Obviously not FLB if it was months ago, unless of course they are utilising the algorithm for dynamic time warping It's not the same England either, from what I remember they were actually competitive

And also we can't have he chance of the top 4 teams in the world all being lumped together in one pool group It's all a bit boo hoo though, we got bloody Brazil in our group

Does it really matter about the draw, to be the best you need to beat the best, if Mexico have got an easier draw then they will be found out in the next round or the one after. If the US are good enough to win the WC then they should be able to get a result against the teams in their group.

Portugal to come good, 3 nil Portugal

Germany or Ecuador? On current form both of them will knock England out. I wouldn't risk Rooney until the next round.

Yes, well Argentina and the like must be shaking in their boots right about now Ok, here is your genuine reason Because there are players better then him

Most of the big La Liga games and every champions league game, that's enough for me to know the spanish players. I also see a good variation of Ligue 1, Serie A, Bundesliga and Premier League. If you only watched Premier League football week in week out you could be excused for believing that England have 11 World Class players in ther run-on squad because the majority of them play for big clubs. I am sorry but World Class to me means, at a maximum, the top 10 players in each position and only Gerrard, Terry and Lampard would get a sniff at a spot in a world team. Ronaldinho has THE best passing game in the world. He also runs from box to box, chasing lost ball, setting up play and scoring goals. His workrate is measured because when he gets the ball he is looking to do something, if your talking about running around like a headless chicken then Dickov and Emerton beat Beckham hands down.

Rabbit proof fence was a movie based on a book called Molly's daughter. Alledgedly about two young girls from the 'stolen generation', which was the white people trying to give aboriginal children learned and safe homes. Funny that there are now calls from within the indigenous population to bring back forced removal of children. We don't destroy cultures, we liberate against tribal law that allows the rape of children and the murder and sexual abuse of women. They can have the finger paintings, just be civilised.

I didn't say Lucas was World Class, I said he was better then Neville If Owen is world class so is Raul. Ronaldinho has a better delivery and workrate FOR EDDIE, England has a team capable of winning the WC, but it won't. Why do you think I hate the England team so much? I actually enjoy watching them play, they are overrated as a whole, but I still like to watch them play.

Eddie, come on mate, you would honestly put G Neville ahead of those players I mentioned? Do you watch football?

I'm not saying it wasn't horrible Flopsy, what I am saying as that through my travels through Germany, is that the German people are continually trying to write the past and there is no reason to crucify the next generation of Germans (by painting nazi images on your body) for the wrongs they are desperately trying to right. Yes the majority of Germans loved the prosporous times of the war, but 60 years of national disgrace is punishing enough without some idiot who is using symbols to inflame football rivalries.

Salgado, Daniel Alves, Javier Zanetti, Belletti and i'll take Puyol, Cordoba and Gallas and put them there before him as well. One more for you, Neill. Ashley Cole isn't even the best left back playing for Arsenal

3 nil Czechs

Mexico to keep the impressive run going, 3 nil

USA are going to get pillaged 5 zip Italy

You a f'n kidding right? Robinson, Neville, Ferdinand, J Cole, Crouch? Add to that Owen and Beckham aren't the players they once were (using your Raul arguement) and A Cole out of form you have left Gerrard, Terry and Lampard which would be counted as world class players. The first seven I mentioned wouldn't get a look in the run on team if they were spanish.

I don't think they are ever going to forget it Flops, I think they have enough monuments around the country to remind there people of the attrocoties that occured. Why though should we inflame a situation that the people are deeply ashamed of and probably will be for the rest of their lives. And before you start talking of genocide and systematic rape, torture, murder and slavery maybe you should not forget your own countries behaviour in the past. Surely wrongs have to be forgotten someday. In the meantime some massive trouble after the Poland vs Germany game.

Domonech appears to be facing the same problems that SGE has, how to play all his star players in the same team. He is better of playing Makelele and Zidane in the middle and dropping Viera and then giving Henry a strike partner. Both Makelele and Viera couldn't hit barn door so no need for them both as defensive midfielders if you are going to play 4 at the back. Way too defensive for a team overflowing with attacking talent.

Agreed Schwarzer had one of his poorer games, but Phillip if you had watched him in the dutch friendly it was simply one of the best keeping games I have ever seen. He is our David Seaman, one minute brilliant the next a touch 'flaky'.
