Novocastrian Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I'm off to this game. Capello has managed to infuse a bit of confidence in this side. Can't see anything other than a comfortable win: 3-0. First visit to the "new" Wembley, looking forward to it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicago_shearer Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 2-1, appalling game, England scoring their winner late in the second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowen Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Great, tedious and predictable Borat-related jokes aplenty. Never saw that coming. You're like Marvin out of Hitchhiker's GTTG, man. On a side note, what a book that is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 If Upson starts.... It's a tough one between him and Lescott as Lescott's been shit this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Why isn't Woodgate in the team? or Ramage? I dont get it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest man England have plenty of better centre halves.Nearly any one who is English in the premiership is better than Upson tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Capello has baffled me here. Upson playing for a team that just got spanked 3-1 and have been average this season. Jenas, bottom of the league and genuinely piss poor and has been poor himself. Beckham playing for one of the worst sides in the MLS with even Beckham struggling to carry the team along with Donovan, and not really earth shattering even corners being average. There are 3 players who have been picked despite poor club form both personally and the team as a whole. Michael Owen however while his team have performed poorly has himself played well netting goals putting himself about. My point is how can Mr Capello claim to be not choose Owen due to his clubs poor form and the fact that for a striker goal-scoring is not everything (What?!) when the players mentioned above aren't even doing that.

ChezGiven Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Just heard that their coach stuck a picture of Borat up in the dressing room before the game and told them to play for their nation's pride. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

olliemort Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 The most riduclous thing about this is the commentators sticking up for the players.They have being absymal.If this was Ireland drawing nil all they would be getting ripped to shreds.Also Capellos selections are a disgrace,Upson what the fuck?No Owen,not even on the bench Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 In games like this, it'd be nice to have a bit more quality from the full backs going forward. They can do a lot to open things up. Walcott is very frustrating. His first touch is so poor at times, but with that pace of his, he will also produce two or three good situations for us. I don't think we're playing all that badly. If we get one, that'll relax them and we'll stop snatching at our chances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummie Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I think one of our failings is that England have one decent game and we think they're world beaters. Capello will get it right, but we can't expect them to be brilliant every game. The result is the important thing, and we'll win this match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its because once you're an England regular you play regardless of your club form. Owen excepted of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
