Interpolic

Hauled off in a crucial game.

Even first half had its moments like, after the dreadful first 10-15 minutes.

This has actually been a really good game in terms of chances and general excitement.

Fuck off with Seven Nation Army man you numbskulls.

Get in.

Howay England.

And yet should be 0-1 up. Nuts really. Yeah probably. Still we look shaky at the back, and clueless and harried in possession. Lucky not to be behind on the balance of play but they've not had much luck or a clinical instinct in front of goal. Going to be a tough second half.

Fucking bad half that like.

@ those shot stats.

Fucking hell, Ukraine goal's really coming here like, England need to get into this game.

Me too.

Deserve to be behind IMO, couple of lucky bounces have prevented it.

Some very shaky moments so far.

These ITV features are very pretentious.

Did seem a bit mental for us to essentially play 4 forwards, can't see Hodgson leaving Johnson exposed like that in a big game. Milner's there to be steady and put in some defensive work.

Ain't a hope in hell I'm watching that you mugs.

On day release.

Release clause.

I think Sewelly's point is how come we've let the situation develop where he's chosen to play for Nigeria.

That's unforgiveable, they should sack the writer or the editor for that. Actually just burn down the Daily Mail.

Stifler, no offence mate but I can only assume you've been on an all day crack binge as you've came out with some absolute classics today.

Jesus Christ, we might as well have just thrown all the group games then. Typical England man, get out of the group stages (usually on the last game of the group stages) then just as everyone thinks maybe they can do actually do it and they get a biggish name they bottle it and go out. Brazil, Portugal, Portugal again, Germany, and now I would think Spain. Yep, it's preferable to go out in the groups. If we get out of the group then it's job done and we're into a knockout game where we'd likely be big underdogs but it's still the best we can do. Your outburst makes no sense.

Jesus Christ, we might as well have just thrown all the group games then.

Paranoid as fuck but I hope this isn't the start of clubs repeatedly making our interest public on the sly to generate more interest. I know he's not exactly an unknown but there'll be a few clubs who'll think "Well if Newcastle are willing to stump up that much cash for him then they must have done their homework, etc". Still though, an encouraging move by the club and the noises about Debuchy are equally as encouraging. Have every faith our squad will be better than last year's.
