Surprise surprise.

More bullshit quotes strung together by "journalist" trying to polarize the fans.

You also forgot to mention that the US will be one the fittest teams at the WC too. If there's one thing we do well as Americans it's training and fitness.

What's the record number of points again?

I can't believe people still mention Hargreaves in relation to the England squad. When was the last time the dude even stepped on a pitch? Looks like (according to Wiki) that he played a total of three matches since late 08.

Would get him back on a year contract, lowest possible weekly wage, and then let him ride the pine.

I also think a lot about how kit tops will look with khaki shorts and I think that both the dark blue and the white kits will look good with a pair of shorts on.

The biggest of all is that you know for a fact we're going to have the same thing.

It's quite clearly meant to be some sort of homage to the Roman soldier.

I think the US top is dreadful. Could do without the red collar and all the polychromy. But, yes, the sash is quite reminiscent of the shirt worn in 1950. I wonder if the design was chosen because the US is playing England in the World Cup. It was. And since I can't double quote, I'll just point out that the home jersey has been leaked, just not released yet. http://cdn.majorleaguesoccertalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/USA-world-cup-2010-nike-shirt-leaked.jpg Like that one much more than the Red one. The blue one is pretty decent though too.

The fact that it's Jenas modeling for England isn't as mind boggling as the fact that the England kit is the only non-Nike kit in that picture.

Hopefully this!

Going to be Liverpool but would much rather it be the blue half of Merseyside.

Don't think so. There have been a few matches that have been on ESPN360 here in the States that weren't on TV in the UK.

I'd give him a run out in some friendlies - unless Capello is going to try and get a 4-5-1 going.

Nowt to do with his performances for his country then. He's 22 man. 3 years older than Nile Ranger. Do you think Ranger will be in double figures for his country in 3 years? No, because the depth of the England national team is far too deep for him to break in so early.

Would love Donovan here but he'll be costing 10m+ unfortunately.

on ESPN360 for us yanks.

Was actually at this match and yeah there were some glorious missed chances. They almost passed themselves out of that winning goal too. They were all very hesitant to pull the trigger (but then again when they did it was shit anyway).

Jealous. Wish I could come over for this.

Really really don't rate Bendtnar for the reasons stated above. Only reason he is rated is because of the team surrounding him.

Would definitely look to loan him for the rest of the season. Makes a lot of sense.

Never going to happen with our fans.
