the power and the fame gets to them all in the end.

IT appears eng grp will be decided on goal difference. As it looks like both usa and eng will end up with 7 pts: could hinge on how well slovenia defend. After last nights display, am wondering if north korea could follow brazil into 2nd round? port vs iv coast was a bore draw of highest order! WOuld luv to see nkorea beat port! Braz looked as potent as ever last night. although they didnt really get their defence tested, dunno how you devise tactics for a team like them! attack attack attack??

"we meet germany next round- its over" did you not see the game yesterday? Germany were good in first half, very creative in last third with pace and movement. They would tear a slow paced def like engs apart! ofcourse aus were poor, but they(ger) look an impressive side, and in better form than we are.

Sat down with my World Cup wall chart and made some predictions yesterday..... second round: m1 SA vs Skorea m2 eng vs ghana m3 ger vs usa m4 arg vs fra m5 hol vs para m6 bra vs chile m7 ita vs cam m8 esp vs port quarter finals: hol vs braz SA vs eng ger vs arg ita vs esp(spain) semiF bra vs eng arg vs esp final bra vs arg all assuming we can top grp c, if not we exit to germany in round 2. Personally i cant see games vs ghana or south africa as a problem, unless fifa fix the result for SA. SO if we thrash algeria it could be clear route to semis, barring any freak results. Agree?

well why is he in the side then? why play him in a position he is seemingly useless at? did he play at right back in spain, because he looked really clueless at it vs nigeria! maybe he is maradonas future son-in-law ? keep in with the rellys eh!

personally I cant believe capello started off with milner ahead of joe cole, is joe cole not match fit?? milner is ordinary, should never be in a world cup side: hes never shown anything in an england top to justify being selected, hes a complete alsoran: a terrible selection, and we played catchup for the rest of the game imo. IS joe cole being saved up for some reason? or is capello just incompetent? I think we got the striker selection right for a 442, however i would NOT bring on crouch for that formation, as he is not a world class striker. Crouch is only good enough for 433, as he just an attacking midfielder. for 442 there were no crosses comming in from the wings, during 2nd half. why? what were swp/lennon doing? why where they running into the box all the time....because they know they cant cross?? SO why play 442? capello is starting to look bit of a lame duck atmo. HEs gonna need to be brilliant in 2nd game or take the blame!

Cant say i approve of peeps betting on a starting lineup, i think thats just insane thing to do: unless you enjoy losing your money....a strange thrill to possess! Maybe peeps who woulld place a bet like that are actually addicts? Its not a logical thing to bet on, its far too random and unpredictable. Unlike betting on who will win a game, when you draw on your experience of the teams skill/performance and make an educated prediction of a result. Think peeps should examine their habits and be more disciplined! I won a whole pound betting on a draw yesterday! woohoo!

Can anyone fathom why he was started at right back ? last 10 mins he was switched to his normal position. NIgeria showed their incompetance by not exploiting his weaknesses, ie his lack of being a defender! mesi is papering over the cracks in argies tactics......canny wallpaper tho!

The only thing he did all match was winning that free kick when he dived." you are obviously blind, heskey won plenty of headers and an assist for the goal.

heskeys did well in first half, tired in second. why why why bring on swp and not joe cole. No decent crosses comming in from the wings. Lampard was poor in last 20mins.(as usual) ave team and will go out in last 16.

if you start now lads, you might be ready in time for the match

the word blinders is slang for the following:...."you are playing sooo well you could play blindfolded and still win!!" or at least that what i understand it means: BUt i live in a cupboard under the stairs, and i look lke a bald canabalistic womble! SO you have to decied if you can believe me....

Moving to Manchester on the 30th hope you bought an umbrella...you can sell off your sunglasses on ebay too.

only cos you own a pink radio...

so maca how many kangaroos are you currently romantically involved with? DO you BBQ their brains/penises after you have finished with them?

my balls have dropped

happy with the 23, joe cole is there thats all that matters; only creative midfielder we have imo.

As i think spain, england, brazil, argentina, are all possible winners, then all their games are worth watching.

my memory must be falling apart, could have sworn we beat them in 1776..... maybe it went to penalties?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/8709871.stm WIll be interested to see if this actually affects chelsea. AM guessing manu actually generate alot of revenue so wont be affected much?? HOwever the debt mountain, may be covered in these restrictions, the artricle isnt clear on this.? WOuld love to see manu barred from CL tho, imagine fergys face

If we're going to survive we need at least one new forward. indeed

if lord treesman did make those comments then they should be reported, regardless of consequences. DOnt see the point in nufc getting involved. More likely that fat mike has personal vendetta with someone at the DMail.

hope rooney doesnt strain anything tonight!

"A year ago he was shouting at Alan Shearer calling him a s*** manager " maybe shearer was a shit manager tho. I could imagine he was tyrant, as hes is used to having his ego pampered, and sop probably expects peeps to jump when he wants. OFcourse the pressure cooker of relegation didnt give him an easy intro to management.
