Pilko

Would take Tamudo for a season, don't care if he's old etc. It'll never happen ofc.

Shame, thought that was Lawro choking to death there.

Take that Ronaldo you cheating shit.

The sheer presence of Llorente made a huge difference.

I'd imagine that's because his boots are made from albino African endangered rhino.

What on earth is wrong with Casillas

Spain peppering the goal already. As much as I want the Spaniards to win I reckon a Portugal goal soon would make a class game.

Turned over. Simpsons time.

Aye, my solitary mackem friend has a Paraguay top and wore it to football last night. Wanker.

To think I'm missing The Chase for this shit.

This game is actually causing me physical pain.

Or, grow a massive afro, have a hole the size of a ball cut into the middle, and learn to chip the ball into it, like a human cup and ball.

What the hell is happening at Darlington? Another manager has left them, this time after only 11 days!

Neuer? He was all over the place on Sunday.

Looking unlikely I can make this now. Sorry Blue team.

The lads who were at Glasto and who spoke to Nolan and Barton have asked where you drink pre-match so you can call them liars to their face! Me and Ronaldo will meet yous at Shearer's and we'll kick you and your mates fuk in!! Ha ha! I will be armed with a water bottle mind, and a hot 1 at that! I think your a liar. You dont even have mates at Glasto, you just wanted to come on here and have a go at Nolan and Barton. Look, he's a fake! This hat comes right off!

Critch actually did go to America on a scholarship after he was released, I used to know his younger brother.

We had a DM, but he was about as mobile as Phil Mitchell after twenty pints.

This is what really irks me. "Being given a chance" nowdays seems to be in the form of being given a 2nd half against someone in a friendly. Give the likes of Bent, Walcott, Johnson, and in time Rodwell, Wilshere etc a proper chance to grow into the team. Let's use the Euro 2012 qualifiers to build up a squad; nurture those young'uns and get rid of those who simply don't offer much anymore towards an energetic and cohesive England team. Couldn't agree more. Use this failure as a catslyst for getting shot of the dead wood hanging in and around the squad. Get shot of he ones who aren't good enough. Get shot of the ones who are too old. The likes of Heskey, Upson, Warnock, Carrick, Beckham, SWP, Carragher, Barry, Glen Johnson, James, Green should be binned asap. Bar Carragher and SWP I don't agree - you can't decide to get rid of a dozen players just like that. However, I agree that pretty much all of them, maybe with the exception of Carrick, need phasing out by the time the Euros come along. I'd bin the lot of them. They're not up to it. Choose an entirely new squad and stick with them and mould them together as a unit. No time like the present to start building for the next World Cup and none of that lot should be near the squad in 2014. Iron fist is needed Pilko, not the velvet glove. Don't think the players being talked about as the players we'll have as regulars in 2014 onwards would be able to cope with suddenly being first choice for England as soon as the Euro qualifiers. What you call 'velvet glove' or what I call 'phasing out the past it ones' is a policy that I'd implement not to let the current lot down gently, but to protect the next lot. A bad performance or result in the first Euro qualifier because we're playing 8 players with no or a few caps could have detrimental effects for that entire campaign.

Quite alarmed that people a) want and b) think that the likes of Rodwell and Shawcross will just suddenly be given a start in a game that actually matters, from nowhere.

Spot on. quayside, I think you are a good poster, but I think you are talking utter s*** about England - I have never read a string of posts I disagree with more. Sorry. FFS any reference to the advertising situation is irrelevant. Check out that Pringles advert with Anelka (the face of the French World Cup?) , it means nothing and the players do whatever they are told to by their agents. I'm just passing an opinion on why we screwed up on the pitch. As I said - a string of posts. Your stuff about Rooney and how it's not his fault - sorry, don't work for me. At all.

Cattermole? No thanks, there's far more talented midfielders than that thuggish cunt.
