It's tough choosing between Upson and Carragher. Upson was very nervous in the beginning and looked even slower than Carragher. I reckon many are plumping for Upson after that last ditch tackle (I was so nervous I actually missed it or can't remember). I'd say Carragher just about pips it for me, not that I'm 100% sure. Carragher played only 45 minutes and should have been sent off against the USA. He then managed to get himself suspended against the mighty Algeria. He's an absolute fucking liability and should be nowhere near an international setup. Easily the worst defender we've capped in recent years, except for perhaps Zat Knight.

Exceptional talent? Fuck off. If not the Aussie game, what on earth have you been impressed with?

Based on a game against 10 drunks, one of them Craig Moore? You must have seen none of the last WC.

Rather Gunter, though he'd cost double that.

Usually a decent poster, Kaka has been letting resentment get the better of him recently.

You're torn? As in, you'd seriously consider giving a 22 year old keeper with 2 starts under his belt the no.1 spot for next season?

I knew that, but there's not a hint of humour in it either.

Eh? What else could he have done?

Carragher best not be anywhere near. If he stays on the bench we'll most likely dick em.

Chant of the tournament so far, courtesy of Millenium Square/Wetherspoons in Leeds: "We love you Ghana, we do we love you Ghana, we do we love you Ghana, we do oh Heskey looks like you" :lol:

Can I be the first to say, thank christ we're through and France/Australia aren't, wankers.

You're the one mixing up hard work with confidence to work the ball. In fact they're actually doing neither uptill now. Hope it changes tomorrow like. Well no, you're accusing individuals who've achieved success primarily because of a lot of hard work of being 'millionaire playboys' because it's easier than looking at tactics and positioning. You're just a resentful little man.

Nobody is saying that they are performing well.

Millionaire playboys who have both been described as the hardest workers at their clubs. This nonsense is becoming boring now.

Very easily done according to my lass.

Mccarthy's tactics worked though, they beat Burnley a few days later. Besides, just about the same Wolves team beat West Ham 3-1 at Upton Park.

Having promise and not living up to it is worse than not having it in the first place. Rooney's been utter cr*p thus far, even allowing for the poor service. Your point being?

Hilarious innit? I know he was only a patch on Lampard's performances though. It is, Hargreaves was praised to high heaven after that tournament.

You lot are pathetic at times.

Who are the half a dozen?

Put him face to face with someone who isn't wearing a gold cross and an alice band and we'd see what he actually is, a massive coward.

Not quite, Danielle De Rossi deserves that accolade.

The above happened in the final 5 minutes of the Algeria game when Defoe and Crouch were on the pitch, positive positions. Capello has nobody else to blame but himself for picking the wrong players.

Unsung.

Tend to agree with HTT.
