World Cup 2010

Anyone see the Algeria game - what an absolute shower.

Nil nil good enough. 4 4 2 will be good enough to get us out the group and when we switch formations at the knockout stages, nobody else has seen us play it. Quite frankly, I cant imagine how we aren't going to win the entire thing.

I can't think of one player who wasn't. Lampard never got into the game, Gerrard looked awful on the left, Lennon and subsequently Wrong-Phillips seemed to do nothing but pass the ball inside to green shirts, Crouch got in on that as well after he came on. Carragher and Terry were more than unconvincing in defense.

The only player i'll even give some credit to is Barry who did some great tackling back, which he shouldn't have had to do half as much as he did.

Shocking.

Was fairly surprised with Algeria today, knocked the ball about well and weren't always looking to punt the ball upfield. Boudebouz and Ziani both looked very tricky, Belhadj is lightning quick, and Bougherra was solid, probably added an extra couple of hundred K onto his price tag.

England were poor. Very poor. Rooney didnt get into the game and when he was moved to the left he looked like he'd given up. Moving Gerrard (one of england's best against USA) out of position took away his effectiveness, Lampard might as well have not been there.

My opinion for the Slovenia game, Rooney, Heskey, Lampard and Carragher out, Crouch, Defoe, J Cole and Dawson in....

(or just leave things be if you want Fabio )

LOL. The Golden Boy of English football!

They're still shite, we were just f**king awful you sad prick.

[llcoolphil]

Absolutely no chance

Ah bless, I do like to see the Scots getting involved - it would be so easy for them to be shy and embarrassed.

See you at Pyramid stage on Wednesday!

What did Rooney do as i turned if off when the final whistle went..

[philipsteak]

What did Rooney do? Missed it.

[ampersand]

Well you can forgive us lot for getting slightly optimistic considering we have a group of players who play at the highest level; obviously when you support a team packed with Championship-at-best detritus who consider the Faroe Islands a crunch tie then you might go into games with a more realistic attitude.

We don't have press and forum users claiming we're going to win the world cup!

[llcoolphil]

paul, i thought it was easy to wind folk up on the rockness forum!

Whilst we could have an in depth discussion about the different psychologies of England and scotland supporters, an examination of media approaches and national traits of optimism vs pessimism, none of it would alter the fact that the reason you haven't is because you follow a shit team that hasn't qualified. It's like a Burnley fan laughing at United for not winning the league.

Ive got a pint says we qualify
