[MissKittyFantastico]

IMO he needs to play

James
Johnson Upson Terry Cole
Cole Barry Lampard Lennon
Gerrard
Rooney/Crouch

Can't see him dropping Rooney but he should at the least sub him at half time if he performs like last time. I'd actually start him on the bench to teach him a lesson.

[Kerry]

Dreading it tbh. But hey, what will be and all.... there goes my nails again..

Mind you, I'm loving the fact schools here are letting kids home early to watch :)

[setanta]

Apparently he's playing Defoe up front with Rooney so maybe he thinks he can get round them with pace. He'll need to play Milner if he's continuing with the ridiculous Gerrard/Lampard partnership in midfield though.

[setanta]

Oh dear, that means he'll play Gerrard out on the wing again. Mental.

[Stacey.]

so pleased they're letting us watch it at school!

[King Gizzard]

The players just need to realise that whatever team Fab puts out it should be good enough to beat a team like Slovenia (just like it would of been good enough to beat usa and algeria)

No excuses..

[Kerry]

so pleased they're letting us watch it at school!

Letting kids out early here. Not all schools but most. One heads even pulled an exam forward :shocked:

[Kerry]

Playing in red tomorrow

[Smithy]

Don't have games tomorrow, so I can leave early and avoid it all :dance:

[King Gizzard]

Playing in red tomorrow

All red..first time since 1970 :dance:

[Kerry]

Don't have games tomorrow, so I can leave early and avoid it all :dance:

You can leave when you like? :conf:

[MissKittyFantastico]

Dear god, why is the man so stubborn? Like they were saying on the post match punditry earlier, Stevie G always ends up drifting into the centre, he doesn't run back and defend and he and Lamps together in the middle just doesn't work!

Defoe up front with Rooney is not so bad if that's what he's starting because he made a big difference when he subbed Heskey for him the other night, but really the formation needs to change ffs! Capello seems so inflexible.

Agree though Nath, if the players go out there with desire then it shouldn't be a problem whatever the formation, who he plays, but it's worrying that he keeps making the same mistakes.

[Ninastar]

I hope crouch plays!

[Stacey.]

Letting kids out early here. Not all schools but most. One heads even pulled an exam forward :shocked:

ah that would be even better. because from 3.30 it takes me until 4pm to get home, so i'll miss some. :(

[Kerry]

I hope crouch plays!

I want to see him on way before the last ten minutes! And keep lummox.... I mean Heskey, off

[MissKittyFantastico]

I know I've said before that I see Crouchy as a bit of a super sub but after Rooney's shocking perfomance last game I'd actually be happy to see him left on the bench and start with Crouch. No player is bigger than the team.

[Kerry]

I know I've said before that I see Crouchy as a bit of a super sub but after Rooney's shocking perfomance last game I'd actually be happy to see him left on the bench and start with Crouch. No player is bigger than the team.

Crouch is. He's bigger than trees.....

[Kerry]

Big trees

[Ninastar]

I want to see him on way before the last ten minutes! And keep lummox.... I mean Heskey, off

I agree!!

[MissKittyFantastico]

:laugh2:

I want to see him score just to see him do the robot tbh :hugesmile:

[Kerry]

:laugh2:

I want to see him score just to see him do the robot tbh :hugesmile:

Wonder if he would :D Not seen much dancing this World Cup - tsk!

[King Gizzard]

Crouch is amazing

Hes actually better with controlling the ball then heading

[Kerry]

Crouch is amazing

Hes actually better with controlling the ball then heading

Trouble is when he runs he looks like a new born giraffe bless him :D

[MissKittyFantastico]

Wonder if he would :D Not seen much dancing this World Cup - tsk!

The South Africans had the best celebration, Nate had it in his sig the other day :laugh:

I liked some of the ideas on the James Corden show actually, they should all do the conga or ooops up side my head :laugh:

[Kerry]

You can leave when you like? :conf:

No the sports hall is in use for exams so I can leave after lunch, i.e. earlier than normal :p

[Kerry]

Oh I see :)

[MissKittyFantastico]

I keep missing it (Corden) cos of BB :(

Yeah same, I've only caught a couple of them for the same reason :(

[King Gizzard]

World Cup Live is amazing


He's gone Night Fishing with John terry, Tennis with Crouch, interview with lamps, on the set with Rooney

Just asking them the most stupid questions like who has the best bum

[Kerry]

I saw one where he played golf with Gerrard

[MissKittyFantastico]

I saw the tennis with Crouch one and the Lamps interview

[Kerry]

Have to say on the beeb coverage, I wish they'd stop showing Lampard and James growling in slo-mo :joker:

[King Gizzard]

gTz_QG-6OeI

[MissKittyFantastico]

Oh cheers Nate, I'll watch that a bit later if LF is boring :)

[setanta]

Really looking forward to the match actually. Squeaky bum time for the majority of members here. Think it'll be a very tense affair.

[MissKittyFantastico]

12 hours time we'll have kicked off.....


COME ON ENGLAND!!!!!!!

[Kerry]

Yes Good Luck England !!!!!!!!

[King Gizzard]

I will stay away from this site before and during the match

it's a curse/jynx I tell the

[MissKittyFantastico]

Might be going to the pub for this one....either way see you on the other side, good or bad! Hopefully good :)

[King Gizzard]

I'll be with the old man..grunting and being angry at everything Fabio does probably lol

[Kerry]

I'm not usually online while late anyway

[Jase]

Heres to a good day ahead :)

[Shaun]

I'm scared.

[Lee.]

Good luck to you all ... as always :D
Michelle you'll never guess what's happened this week AGAIN??!

[Wildcat!]

England needs to concede a goal early, to give them a kick in the backside! I think that will wake them up, and make them go all out. They are clearly better than the opposition, on all 3 games, and the only think holding them back is nerves. Let it flow guys!

Anyways my prediction for today:

England Slovenia 4-1
Algeria USA 2-1 (no one will see that one coming)

England and Algeria go through.

[Ninastar]

I reckon 2-1 to England.

[Jase]

We have to do something fs pleaseeeee

[setanta]

It seriously is a toin coss here. Will they play to their abilities or go out in the same manner they did against Algeria and the States? I have no idea myself.

[Jase]

Exactly what i was thinking

After the first game we said oh next game they will be back to normal back to how they are, then the next game come and same again.

Will it be the same this time? Who knows

[setanta]

Look, lets be honest here: Algeria and Slovenia are pretty poor sides so you only have to go out and perform and it'll be a doddle. Still though, things don't look good judging from the press conferences and all the talk of unrest within the camp. The one real hope for you is that the older players suddenly realise that this may be the last time they ever play in a World Cup and decide to just play with pride and passion.

[King Gizzard]

4 cm's playing, damn it

2 out of position

ffs

[setanta]

He's putting Milner on the right isn't he? That should give Johnson some cover.

[King Gizzard]

Gerrard on the left is god awful he just comes into the centre and gets in Lamps way

[Jase]

To me from what i just saw its a good line up

[KERRYJ]

Don't worry I have every faith 2 or 3 nil. Come on England

[InOne]

Pub time, see you on the other side D:

[setanta]

Giles is right when he says that Capello should have had a good idea at this stage as to what his best team is and he still doesn't seem to know.

[Scarlett.]

lol @ the BBC "News flash"

[King Gizzard]

I hope they get in trouble for that

[Shaun]

I'm scurred.

*hides behind pillow until we score*

[GiRTh]

So Defoe is starting and no place for Joe Cole.

[Scarlett.]

Playing a lot better today

[Shaun]

"Should've been a plumber".....oh dear, Lawro.

[GypsyGoth]

Woooooooo!!!

[Shaun]

YES :D

YEYAAAAAAAAAH

*dances*

[Maia]

We have a goal! :hello:

[Scarlett.]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees

[Chels]

Slovenia's keeper could have bloody stopped that. Stupid lanky prick.

[Shaun]

Oh Frank. Frank Frank Frank :nono:

[GypsyGoth]

Slovenia's keeper could have bloody stopped that. Stupid lanky prick.

:laugh:

[Shaun]

this commentator is probably my favourite one, whatever his name is. Am also quite fond of the Lawrenson.

[Claymores]

Slovenia's keeper could have bloody stopped that. Stupid lanky prick.

Too true Chels - but now I'm not hopeful :bawling:

[Shaun]

faaacking 'ell that was manic

[Ramsay]

Lampard annoys me so much

[Shaun]

I do wonder why we swapped Aaron Lennon for James Milner - Lennon was one of the few good players from the other two games.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Usa seem to be doing well.

[Claymores]

Usa seem to be doing well.

They're up against that very skillfull Algerian team that that were so tricky for Engerland :elephant:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

They're up against that very skillfull Algerian team that that were so tricky for Engerland :elephant:

Well their **** today!

[30stone]

I do wonder why we swapped Aaron Lennon for James Milner - Lennon was one of the few good players from the other two games.

Lennons final ball was poor, and only reason james milner played average first game is because he was still ill whilst playing he had the flu lol.

[Shaun]

Aaaah I see :tongue:

Bit of a worrying free kick there

[Shaun]

bleh, only a foul because Defoe's a midget. get up.

[30stone]

Could have got a red for that lucky bloke.

Defoes head looked messed up then.

[setanta]

1-0 wont be good enough cuz you still look a bit wobbly at the back. I'd say you'll score again though in the second half.

[Shaun]

*breathes sigh of relief and heads to get drink*

[Scarlett.]

Let's hope we get at least another goal in the 2nd half

[setanta]

Let's hope we get at least another goal in the 2nd half

You'll need it. It's going to happen though... they're hardly a good team.

[30stone]

Seriously i havent used the sport button on my car in ages..

It sounded sexy.

I was driving so quick to go shop lol and back at half time.

[Claymores]

Seriously i havent used the sport button on my car in ages..

It sounded sexy.

I was driving so quick to go shop lol and back at half time.

Least you'll have something to drown the sorrows with after 90 :joker:

[30stone]

**** off you german twat!

[Shaun]

*blinks in confusion*

[30stone]

Its nothing to do with who were playing we could do this against usa..
Its just we know what we need to do.. win.




Dont believe johnson got a yellow for nothing!!!

Ridicululous!

[30stone]

So bloody close!!!

That would have been an amazing goal.

[ButterflyGirl]

He didn't do anything??!

[30stone]

I believe if we get 2 we will get 3..

Dont know why.

[Stacey.]

:D

[30stone]

He didn't do anything??!

****ty ref..


Least they are consistant in south africa..

Consistantly **** (exception of howard webb)

[setanta]

I believe if we get 2 we will get 3..

Dont know why.

You need to win by a couple so that there's no chance of you facing Germany. That's if USA get one against Algeria.

[Shaun]

yeah that's cool Rooney, just stand by the corner flag.

[30stone]

Diving bastard..

That was ridiculous.


Ref couldnt see that??

[Shaun]

too many one-twos.

[*mazedsalv**]

England playing much better.

[30stone]

You need to win by a couple so that there's no chance of you facing Germany. That's if USA get one against Algeria.

And thats if germany win.. and go through..


They could mess up against ghana..

I dont care who we face we gotta face a big team sooner or later...



I just want to go through if im honest.

[30stone]

so close, gerrard should have took a touch and smashed it!

[Shaun]

Ooh Aah Africa? Well, okay then...


The pitch is a bit dodgy, isn't it?

[30stone]

8 cans of fosters.
1 pack of hula hoops.
1 440g box of maltesers
1 Ben and Jerrys caramel chew chew..

Carlsberg dont do football food..

But if they did..

[Wildcat!]

Can anyone in tha england team use their left foot, aside from Ashley cole? Its a real handicap because they always have to bring it on the right foot to cross. I think the manager shouldve selected more lefties.

[Shaun]

oh for ****'s sake.

[30stone]

Come on rooney!!!!

****ing hell!!! jeez..

[Stacey.]

Aw man

[Shaun]

there seem to be England players everywhere....this is great play

[30stone]

Can anyone in tha england team use their left foot, aside from Ashley cole? Its a real handicap because they always have to bring it on the right foot to cross. I think the manager shouldve selected more lefties.

.. Joe cole.. Needed to play.

[30stone]

Great breaking up the counter there terry.



Come on rooney england believe in you.

[Wildcat!]

gosh, they should be up 3-0 by now!

[30stone]

Usa lol

Dissallowed goal number 2..

[Shaun]

oooh, a decision going our way.

[30stone]

Feel kinda bad for usa really, havent seen the second one but the first was offside for me...

[30stone]

That was a yellow he was lucky not to get a second yellow, if i was manager id take him off, 1 foul.. and hes off..

[Wildcat!]

Feel kinda bad for usa really, havent seen the second one but the first was offside for me...

Yeah it was. Barely but it was offside. They will be bitching about though for sure!

[Shaun]

I think overall USA have been a much better team than Slovenia...even England.

[Wildcat!]

I think overall USA have been a much better team than Slovenia...even England.

Yeah, overall, they shouldve won the second game for sure. Unlucky so far!

[30stone]

Yeah it was. Barely but it was offside. They will be bitching about though for sure!

Yeah i kinda hope usa go through really but i want england to go through top..




James had played well considering how messed up his 6 yars box is..

[Wildcat!]

These 2 games are really entertaining. I keep switching back a nd forth!

[Wildcat!]

OMG!!!!! That was a scary sequence!

[30stone]

Bloody hell 2 great interceptions there!!!

My gosh! i was sweating.

[Claymores]

Aaaaargh!

[setanta]

And thats if germany win.. and go through..


They could mess up against ghana..

I dont care who we face we gotta face a big team sooner or later...



I just want to go through if im honest.

Yeah, that's a fair enough comment. Anything can happen in the knock out stage and Uruguay aren't mugs either. That's if you reach the quarters on the other side of the draw.

[Jase]

England in general are a brand new team today i like it

Also if that wasnt offside neither was the USA one

[setanta]

Should have scored there. Good blocks by England though.

[ButterflyGirl]

Phew.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Is it still 1-0 Im too scared to look

[Wildcat!]

All 4 teamks are really going for it! England has slowed down a bit!

[30stone]

England have sped up lol. trying harder and harder.

[Lee.]

Aaaaargh!

eff it! :)

[Claymores]

Is it still 1-0 Im too scared to look

only just - good chances both ways

[Shaun]

I'm going to lose all of my nails in a minute. And then my bowels.

[Wildcat!]

England have sped up lol. trying harder and harder.

YeaH BUT sLOVENIA IS GETTING CHANCES i MEan. They didnt get any in the 1st half!

[Shaun]

good. *waves Rooney off with glee*

[30stone]

Yeah, that's a fair enough comment. Anything can happen in the knock out stage and Uruguay aren't mugs either. That's if you reach the quarters on the other side of the draw.

Any team that goes through are going to be dangerous whoever you play, obviously brazil.. argentina spain you know are big hard teams to play but.. germany can be stopped, spain can be stopped brazil were very scrappy against a team that is the worst in the comp.

[Wildcat!]

If US doesnt win, they only have themselves to blame. SO many chances!

[Claymores]

eff it! :)

:bawling: I fear thazt'll be Slovenia's best opportunity - queing up to take shots :bawling:

[Lee.]

I'm going to lose all of my nails in a minute. And then my bowels.

Lol.. :laugh2:

[30stone]

Come on rooney chin up!!!!
next game!

Dont believe how much you can hear england fans toinght its madness!

[setanta]

Any team that goes through are going to be dangerous whoever you play, obviously brazil.. argentina spain you know are big hard teams to play but.. germany can be stopped, spain can be stopped brazil were very scrappy against a team that is the worst in the comp.

I'm just looking at the World Cup chart and figuring out who'll you play, you know? If you come first in the group you'll be on the opposite side of the draw to Argentina. If you come second you'll them in the Quarters. All to play for in so many ways.

[30stone]

**** off ref again you absolute wanker!

He won the ball!!!

[Wildcat!]

Yeah being 1st in the england group is crucial, if you want to make it to the semis!

[Shaun]

16 minutes to go...at least

[Shaun]

either the vuvuzelas have died, or the England fans are the noisiest of the tournament :lovedup:

[30stone]

It doesnt matter where we come tonight because germany could eaily come second.. so you never know really.

Brazil and Spain in their last games have looked the best 2 in the competition..

[Wildcat!]

Thank god, you ncat hear too many of those Bloody Vuvuzelas! I hate them!!!

[30stone]

either the vuvuzelas have died, or the England fans are the noisiest of the tournament :lovedup:

As always!

[30stone]

Linesman you tit!



Defoe keeps getting fouled.. yes hes small yes hes lightweight but hes getting fouled none the less!

[Wildcat!]

It doesnt matter where we come tonight because germany could eaily come second.. so you never know really.

Brazil and Spain in their last games have looked the best 2 in the competition..

Its not about germany or ghana. I think that group is all the same. It6s about who you face, if you make it to the top 8. If you win the group, its a much easier game.

[30stone]

Rule Britannia!!!

[Claymores]

It doesnt matter where we come tonight because germany could eaily come second.. so you never know really.

Brazil and Spain in their last games have looked the best 2 in the competition..

I think you might have missed Argentina's games - I'm hoping yyez meet them Eventually - watching Engerland trying to cope would be comedy gold.

[Shaun]

god bless the two Coles. The one behind might be a bit of a tosser in the starlight, but on the pitch he's faultless.

[Wildcat!]

Why are slovenia bringing in strikers? They will go through like this. But I guess they dont have anything to lose really!

[Shaun]

Depends how aware of the other game they are I guess, Wildcat

[30stone]

god bless the two Coles. The one behind might be a bit of a tosser in the starlight, but on the pitch he's faultless.

Two great players and it would be amazing to have joe at the emirates next season.

[setanta]

Depends how aware of the other game they are I guess, Wildcat

Oh, they're aware. They want to be on the opposite side of the draw to Argentina. Far easier.

[GypsyGoth]

Just 10mins left.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Oh Usa got a good free kick, right on pentaly box

[30stone]

Why are slovenia bringing in strikers? They will go through like this. But I guess they dont have anything to lose really!

Algeria are out if they draw why not go for it?


I have been thinking too..
Who are you supporting this match?

I know you like and lived in usa?

and like the african teams and that so who?

[Shaun]

is there a Slovenian WITHOUT a yellow card?

[arista]

One Goal to England
and a few mins to go.


What the Hell is this

[Wildcat!]

Depends how aware of the other game they are I guess, Wildcat

Im sure they are aware. BUt now that I think about it, if they lose by 1-0, or 4-0, its the same to them. But if they draw, they are through for sure. SO they dont have nothing to lose.

[30stone]

Slovenia player booked..
Wasnt a booking for me..

[Shaun]

pmsl Capello. He always reminds me of Lilian from Shameless.

[Wildcat!]

Algeria are out if they draw why not go for it?


I have been thinking too..
Who are you supporting this match?

I know you like and lived in usa?

and like the african teams and that so who?

I want Algeria to go through. SO I am hoping England scores again, and Algeria wins 1-0.

African teams are desperate at the moment! :(

[30stone]

Jokic
Birsa
Dedic

Are the booked players.

[Shaun]

spot the difference.

[setanta]

Why are they letting that clown take all their free kicks? He's terrible.

[30stone]

I want Algeria to go through. SO I am hoping England scores again, and Algeria wins 1-0.

African teams are desperate at the moment! :(

Well Ghana have a very good chance

Considering they are top right now, but have to play germany..


Ivory coast unless brazil win 5 - 0 and Ivory coast win 6 - 0 are out.

[Shaun]

HESKEY? NO.

*throws things*

[setanta]

Shooting from there?! You idiot.

[Shaun]

well that was a close shot.

[Claymores]

Shooting from there?! You idiot.

They've got 5 to press - stupid waste :bawling:

[Shaun]

I feel sorry for the ABE supporters - if we manage this, Andy and David are going to be unbearable :tongue:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

God, commentrys are pissing me off in the england match.

[setanta]

I feel sorry for the ABE supporters - if we manage this, Andy and David are going to be unbearable :tongue:

Why? Slovenia are shi%e. I expected you to beat them.

[Claymores]

God, commentrys are pissing me off in the england match.

As I said - like listening to Sir Alex commentating on a Man U game

[setanta]

God, commentrys are pissing me off in the england match.

I'm listening to RTE. Far more realistic interpretation of the match.

[Shaun]

No I know, but I can see the "HAHAHAA THE DOUBTERS" posts from here

[Wildcat!]

I cant believe this useless slovenia team will go through! This really is an easy group!

[Shaun]

faaacck. My knees are actually doing the charleston.

[setanta]

No I know, but I can see the "HAHAHAA THE DOUBTERS" posts from here

Well, I still doubt the team to be honest with you. Far from impressive.

[30stone]

I feel sorry for the ABE supporters - if we manage this, Andy and David are going to be unbearable :tongue:

Trust me i will be just as bad :)


Abe is ridiculous, why hate on the country closest to you in the world cup?? doesnt make sence its like us hating on france lol..

[Claymores]

No I know, but I can see the "HAHAHAA THE DOUBTERS" posts from here

[Shaun]

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Usa top, egland second

[Claymores]

Hanging on to a 1-0 in the corner against a really crap side. I'm sorry, this isn't good.

It was laughable it even got to the stage I could wind Engerlish up today TBH

[Wildcat!]

Those ****king americans are clutch I tell yuou!!!!

EnglAND WILL FINISH 2ND !!! THATS BAD

[Claymores]

Those ****king americans are clutch I tell yuou!!!!

EnglAND WILL FINISH 2ND !!! THATS BAD

THAT's GREAT

[setanta]

Yes in extra time.... their top!

Absolutely fantastic news. England are second. They're on Argentina's and possibly Germany's side of the group. Magic.

[Wildcat!]

Absolutely fantastic news. England are second. They're on Argentina's and possibly Germany's side of the group. Magic.

lol! :) They realkly shouldve won this group!

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Usa full time! Won

[setanta]

lol! :) They realkly shouldve won this group!

Yep, but the didn't deserve it. USA did to be fair to them.

[Nemo123]

This guy's a waffler, makes terry Venables look intelligent.

[30stone]

WANKERS!!!

I have to work sunday, **** you america :(


Anywhoo.. goodluck ghana and serbia!

[Shaun]

this is insane - house across the road is blaring celebratory music, and I can hear vuvuzelas in the town centre

[setanta]

This guy's a waffler, makes terry Venables look intelligent.

Go to RTE. Far better.

[Scarlett.]

Well done USA! Well done England!

[Wildcat!]

USA is reallly deserving, they went for it completely in all games!!! They will be dangerous to play agaisnt anyone!

[Angus]

Now, if only Ghana (by some miracle) can beat Germany!

[MissKittyFantastico]

YESSSSSSS!!!!!!! England and USA through, I'm sorry but they deserved to top the group above us because they played better over the three games. Donovan scoring their winner :)

Much much much better from us today, Milner was MOTM for me, he played his boots off. Brilliant :)

Happy days, hope Ghana do the job against Germany tonight now.

[Barbie]

Woop Woop

[Shaun]

The only thing going in Ghana's favour really is that Miroslav Klose is suspended.

Hehehe I was actually crying tears of happiness for USA almost as much as for England, they SO deserved to go through!

[30stone]

That has to be a record. They must be absolutely knackered. lol

[Maia]

Whoo England's through! :D

[setanta]

If England play like that in the second round they'll be out. Very simple.

[Nemo123]

Go to RTE. Far better.

ripping the piss out of that performance.

[Wildcat!]

Germany is not as good asa people think they are. Yeah they had a good first game against 10 man australia, but they arent that great! This is one of their worest teams ever. People were hipping them up for one game. Ghana is more dangerous than german7y to be honest. The bad thing though, is you probably face argentina if you make it to top 8.

Miracles can happen!

Yep. Like I said, far more realistic.

[King Gizzard]

To be the best we've gotta beat the best so I don't care who we get in hindsight

But sure they'll only be the first hurdle. Then they'll have Argentina to contend with after that. And no, on that form they wont beat any German team that they face.

Totally agree, Germany were awful in their last game and the first game was just a one off - I wouldn't mind playing them
