SexLovely said:

keep on dreaming

Gutted....totally!

Zidane quality...Beckham, sorry he isn't in the same league.....Beckham has to have 4/5 attempts before hitting the onion bag, Zidane...one attempt BANG!

Owen, where the hell was he apart from when he got subbed?

Gerrard and Heskey.....speechless, you may expect it from a newbie but not from experienced players. Why the fuck was heskey brought on, he is awful, really really wank ,tel the cunt to fuck off and never let him near and england shirt ever again.....

King and Rooney I thought were excellent....just a shame 2 eejits had to throw the hard work away....

Henry and Trezeguet.....sorry where we're they?

And wouldn't you know the clown.....saves a penalty then the next shot we have, it pings off his head!

Just for good measure...

Its beats being a realist. But face it.....France came extremely close to losing this evening.

Had it not bin for a stupid challenge near the area and an awful backpass England woulda had the 3 points.

Marrk said:

If you ask me, Zidane is in the same league as Pele and Maradona.

The last five mins of that game was like watching Leeds United all season and that was bad enough.

Still think we'll do the Swiss and Croatia though.

That goes without saying. Different class.

Superb!

Allez les bleus!

Until tomorrow

Forza Italia!

3-0!!!!!

J0eyC0c0 said:

And Zico and Plattini and Cruyff and hopefully 1 day.....Rooney.

SexLovely said:

Yeah!

J0eyC0c0 said:

No No No No!

'Zizou' is absolutely fantastic, agreed.... but the man aint no

Diego Armando Maradona!

Pele, one of the top 3 greatest of all time, yeah... from what archive footage I've

seen, prints I've read and from what folk have told me!

I can't really make a genuinely honest opinion on him coz I wasn't around to frequently

watch enough of the master when he actually played for real.

Zidane may be the best in the world at present (undisputedly was for a run 5 or 6 years),

the Algerian born Frenchman is not quite up there with Maradona.

Marrk said:

On the contrary! Henry may not have exactly played like the 'Premiership' Henry,

esp. in the first half, but he was alert right until the VERY END, the

hallmark of a truely great player.

Out of the game for 90mins, then bang! If you watch carefully, Henry fore-sees and

anticipates Gerrard's back pass to James even BEFORE England's sleepy back line and

started making his run seconds pior to Stevie G touching the ball, thus forcing a

penalty..... and making me cry into my brandy!

fucking hell.

we had the fuckers beat. WE HAD THE FUCKERS BEAT.

Heskey - i've always stuck up for you, but you are one stupid motherfucking son of a bitch.

Gerrard - you're a diamond for 91 minutes and then you do something as fucking sunday league as that. Shit.

i just can't believe it. We fucking had them beat.

if anyone tries it on with me they're gonna get their ass kicked, period. ain't in the mood for no fucking around today.

TheFrog said:

I can undestand your shock. Scotland are world masters at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Still, you've got to laugh eh?

TheFrog said:

I'm with you. England played a very good tactical game last night. They deserved to win. Heskey is useless. Quite why he replaced Rooney is beyond me. Still, we've got to look forward to winning the next two games. We should do it. We have to do it.

Shapeshifter said:

we certainly should do it. Croatia v Switzerland was a dismal match. We should have no problems.

I just hope that last night doesn't have an adverse impact on the boys, mentally.

So, it's winning the next two games, Spain in the quarters, italy in the semis and then we beat france in the final. Beckham scores the winning penalty.

Shapeshifter said:

Taking Rooney off to save him gas and injury with 15mins to play is understandable in theory,

but come on Sven, in watching the game he was our best attacking outlet on the break while

we were camped in our own half for the last 45. I don't believe in this bullshit of saving Rooney

his legs at all. He's young, full of beans, fearless with bags of desire and skill, the lad

should've stayed on! He's 18!, playing the last 15mins would've done him, and England

on the break, a world of good.

Heskey is the biggest pile of shit i have ever seen, not only can he not score but he makes tackles like that in range of goal.

Never mind the final England v France will be awsome now Revenge is sweet

mdiver said:

Speaking of revenge, i laughed my ass off when that ball kicked up and smacked Barthez in the chops. what a doofus!

TheFrog said:

That was funny as hell

HEE HEE HEEE....THE MORNING AFTER THE NIGHT BEFORE...THOUGHT ENGLAND GOT WHAT WHAT THEY DESERVED FOR DEFENDING DEEP THE WHOLE GAME....CROATIA WILL TAKE CARE OF THEM IN THE LAST GAME WHEN THEY TRY TO COME FORWARD....AND THEN IT'S BYE BYE FOR ANOTHER TORNAMENT
...
...ps....thought rooney and king played well for england...give them there dues
...
...forecasts....ITALY 2 DENMARK 0.....SWEDEN 1 BULGARIA 0

You gots to be


My boyz say I'm too over critical of England, but I do agree with you when you say

they defended too deep.... BUT NOT THE WHOLE GAME LIKE YOU SAY , only the

2nd half. Apart of it was tactical but large proportions of it was Fench preesure.



Everything else you said you can jam it up your bagpipe!
