Good read. It's only a matter of time before he relapses though.

I think that proves me to be correct.

You'd have had Shearer down as a great pundit a few years back. He certainly didn't care who he pissed off on the pitch, and he put everything into his performances - even when he couldn't run, for two years. On the sofa he's lazy and even placatory.

We all know he's daft enough to play him, man. He's daft enough to think he'd still score goals at international level.

You shouldn't expect to be playing for your club if you're putting in crap performances for them week after week. Big Al still selected him, mostly.

Did say it originally.

Where does he say Owen would be in his England side if he was manager? It's apparent.

It's like taking pieces from several perfectly good jigsaws and trying to make a new one. Always ends up looking ridiculous and wasting a weekend.

Even Shearer was talking about being England manager the other day. Owen would be in his side, apparently.

Higuain is incredible.

He was asked about Rooney's temperament tonight and responsed with an incoherent ramble about 'first 35 minutes'. You're insane if you think this man is fit to convey intricate footballing instructions to 11 different men who probably all think they know better anyhow. Painfully obvious that England won't prosper while he's the head coach.

Dresden, man, go to bed.

National coach that can't speak English and gave us the worst England WC performance in over 20 years. Will be gone in 9 months. Such scope for a debate.

Yeah, grit is certainly the most noticeable thing about the Spurs side.

Quite. What a queer. It's poorly worded and that's my fault ofc. Basically our players limitations don't allow them to comfortably compete for Championships when pitched against superior sides. There are several sides who are superior to us. Capello may have had the squad underachieving in some performances, but that loss to Germany was pretty expected and would have taken Capello's players playing at 100% for almost the entire game. And none of that has anything to do with the fact that our national coach, who's held that position for almost 4 years, can barely string a sentence together in English. It's ludicrous.

Quite. What a queer.

Try again.

The same Scholes who didn't go to the last WC because Capello didn't ring him?

I have no idea what excuses these are that aren't 100% spot on? Pick them out for me... I don't have to. They're all nonsense.

9 days before the game. He'll probably play.

Still say that he should have been sacked immediately after the Germany game. The whole tournament was an absolute disaster. Quite right.

Always excuses with Dresden. He's the king of them. I remember when injuries were to blame for Michael Owen's lack of left foot. Pathetic.

The worst WC I've ever seen England play - by far, mind you - is 2010.

You might want to familiarise yourself with 2002, 2004 and 2006 before coming out with that recycled garbage.
