  1. She really should have sold that to the tabloids
  2. Need two IMO, Wilshere is the only they are attempting to mark because they know the other two can't hurt them and he's the deepest of the lot If wilshere is the best attacking midfield player we have, we have to accept we're just awful. He's a good player, but he's not exactly Lampard or Gerrard going forward. Rooney is probably the best centre mid, attacking midfielder and striker England have
  3. Shouldn't they both be playing? Probably but i understand Townsend to an extent, he has turned up in an England shirt though not today. Sterling has had a poor end to the season, Liverpool were disasterous, his personal life is a mess, he's constantly underfire and big suprise he's missed all our chances today. Walcott has been back properly for two games, scored 4 goals, helped his side win a cup & is massively full of confidence. Roys just gone for the old support the underfire player tactic & ignored all the surrounding context. They could put Sterling and Townsend on the wings and Rooney behind Walcott

  5. How is that even possible? We've won every competitive game we've played since the World Cup, a competitive competition Wales were not even in Belgium are a lot higher ranked than any of those teams
  6. they've done the double over them I know, some effort by the Ivorians to let this bunch of chumps beat them in Brazil. Were very close to getting to a quarter final

    Copa America 2015

    Have Uruguay looked like scoring?
  8. Football is fucked in this country like. We have maybe one good premier league player and he was our most wasteful player today. Looking back I think we really underachieved in the 00's. Roy Keane, Robbie Keane, Damien Duff, Shay Given, Richard Dunne, John O Shea, Steve Finnan all good to very good players in the Premier League. 10 of what should have been some of our best years wasted between 2002 and 2012 Smaller countries need the strong spine of top(ish) level players like the ones you listed plus look at Wales / Iceland / Uruguay in their pomp for example and Ireland, unfortunately for yourselves just don't have that at the moment. Your best two players are probably a RB and an inconsistent winger, if they were a CF and a CM you'd probably be able to blag it a bit more. Also I know you take the piss about England B team and such but I honestly think we should stop picking English guys who have never been in the country whose grandparents are Irish. There is just no point. If they were good enough to really affect our team they'd be snapped up by England anyway. I'd prefer poor Irish players to slightly better English players. I'm not talking about people like Kevin Kilbane and Steven Reid who genuinely felt Irish but there are some guys who just aren't worth the hassle

  10. Germany only beating Gibraltar 1 nil
  11. I win 130 euro if Spain and Uruguay win
  12. Depressing that our only player able to pass a ball is a 33 year playing for Norwich.
  13. I've never seen McCarthy have a good game for Ireland
  14. It's shit tbf but we don't have any creative players so it's the only chance of scoring unfortunately You do, he went off before the puntball started. Hoolahan I presume? Would agree and it was a shit decision to take him off but even before that our only chances were crosses and corners

  16. Not watching on sky but that sounds like Ray Houghton
  17. Disagree here. I think our system is working well with Coleman and Brady getting forward a lot from full back adding good width
  18. The Scots don't like it up em
