Sweden v England

[Jo/Joe]

Hargreaves is doing well it has to be said. It was a decent performance and good progress. Other teams will be taking note.

That just amused me, Crouch got the ball from Carragher then ran all the way back to where the ball had come from in the first place beating players as he went.

That's all them continentals ever do sometimes. It's only when England do it that you realise how wank it is

[cleopatra]

It doesn't matter. England can still win. Anyway, what matters is the next matches. Knockout games.

 

[Jo/Joe]

lol

It's true. England are one of the favourites and other teams will be noting their improvement. Wouldn't you?

no they'll all be laughing at our fluky goal and writing us off

 

[tangerinedream]

Why has Paul Robinson had David James' arms attached to him?

[tangerinedream]

Aye Up, Here's Sulzeer.

(Who used to be a striker y'know )

 

[JTG]

He's borrowed them off that Tunisian goalie who seemed determined to try and save everything with his wrists last night

It stings when it hits your palms and it's been kicked hard you know.

He should wear proper goalie's gloves instead of wooly mitts then

 

[learydeary]

So why do the swedish fans sing to that go west pet shop boys tune?

No. If I was Argentina, Brazil, Spain, Holland ...I would be looking at England and smiling at how pedesterian they are.

In the second half so far ...how would you describe Englands "improvement" now?

lol

His mum says they are a waste of money.

Bet she's too tight to buy him a proper goalie top with a nice quilted chest and sends him out in a woolly jumper instead

Brazil have set the tournament on fire haven't they? And Argentina have already proved themselves against other top teams. Holland? Decent, not great. Spain have played Tunisia and a poor Ukraine. Good performances, but against weak teams.

Conceding a goal isn't a bad thing at this stage. It's a pressure test.

i thought spain were awful against tunis until the last 20mins

its not just today - every match so far has had someone singing it, i presumed it was the theme tune for the tournement or something

He has to wear an inside out rugby shirt that used to belong to his big brother. It's sleeves are too long, but at least he can pull them over his hands and it helps take the sting out a bit.

How much did rooney not want to come off then?

 

[Jo/Joe]

Sven is the weakest link. Should have brought on Lennon for Beckham, who has been useless. And Theo should have been given a run. Bringing on Gerrard is just playing safe. When we play safe we fuck up.

stroppy bugger int he

 

[jiggajagga]

70 mins and most of the England team look fucked.

You should know this Sven, an old boxing maxim

" SEX WEAKENS LEGS!!"

Send the wags home Sven ffs!

It was first sung at football by West Brom fans around 15 years ago when the West Midlands reverberated to the sound of Baggies fans singing ' Go West - Bromwich Albion!'

It was then appropriated by Arsenal fans singing '1-0 to the Arsenal', celebrating the fact that they were the dullest team ever and only ever won 1-0.

Since then it's gone stellar - comes from the fact that loads of people in Scandinavia elsewhere watch English football on telly.

 

[muser]

Carragher should never get a game, watch how all sweden's attacks are done down the right. Beckham shouldn't be there either. England are playing for a draw.
