SEMTEX Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Maybe a game worth a bet tbh. It's one of these standard 30 minutes of cageyness followed by the remaining hour being a fairly comfortable goal every 15-20 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 You can get as much as 8/1 for halftime draw, fulltime England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Hope we kick em for 8 or 9. Be a nice change for to actually do that when we should. Just know it'll be another drab 2-0 or summat. Liechstenstein springs to mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowen Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 It'll be tough to score a lot as a 2-0 loss would be a good result for them, hence they'll keep defending. We'll win without breaking much of a sweat and the Capello machine will continue to gain momentum. Even though I don't think we're much good I never feel like we're not going to win at the moment, we're ruthlessly efficient. I'm discounting the Spain game as they're the best in the world and we haven't had long enough under Fabs to be expected to compete at that level quite yet.

Yorkie Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Tbh, aye. Capello's rekindled a bit of interest from me, certainly. I'm still in the 'rather Newcastle won a throw-in' camp, but i'd consider going to an England game nowadays. It's the fact that the vast majority of the squad are utter twats that'll always keep my interest below a certain level. Terry, Ferdinand, Cole, Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney, etc... utter twats at the most twattish clubs. Can't stand the fuckers, which in turn makes me feel pretty meh about England on the whole. Intrigued to see what direction Capello's taking us in, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant really put my finger on why, but it does. You need one classy defender at least, can't go having two cloggers. JT's about as classy as those birds from the Britain's cheapest brothel thread.

"schedule" http://www.itv.com/channels/hd/weeklyhdschedule/default.html Good good This is gonna be a frustrating game I reckon, out of the European minnows Andorra are usually the hardest to break down. They usually park the bus and attempt to injure the opposition. 3-0 England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 It'd be nice to open them up early and not let up but yeah, 3-0 is probably a likely scoreline. Perhaps 4. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pantu Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Lescott's a classy defender? Compared to Terry he is! I was just making a general point anyway, not neccesarily saying that was the ideal pairing I'd go for with the two first choices being out. 4/5-0 tonight I reckon, I hope we start poorly though because I like watching Capello bollock people from the sidelines.

I'm with the man who said 7+. Its about time we obliterated someone, not because we deserve it but because it would be nice for me to actually enjoy an England game for once. The classy/clogger argument would suit Woodgate but I'd rather he didn't play for England - an injury waiting to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dustynrg Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I just can't arsed about all these overpaid wankers playing a seriously weak team like Andorra. If they don't beat them about 12 nowt they should be ashamed. And if they do beat them 12 nowt the media will be going on about how we will win the World Cup every four years until about 2050.

tmonkey Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Serious question: do people think Lescott or Upson should be playing? (behind Rio and Terry) Upson. Lescott is the better defender in the Premiership, but only in the Premiership imo. More of a bruiser/bully type who'll get caught out when ball watching by quick/intelligent movement. I reckon he's out of his depth at international level, which is what he's looked like in the few games hes played. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see what you're saying but your description can describe Upson ad infinitum. I guess I'm biased though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Tbh, I dont see a defined line between who is the better of the two as players. You can easily argue for either and be just about spot on. For me its Lescott, but thats just my preference for the way he plays, rather than him being far and away better than Upson. It's quite a tough one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
