International Football

Not an amazing performance by any means, but got the result again.

Looked decent at the back, makes a nice change. I know they're not exactly quality opposition but it's nice to see 2 clean sheets in a row.

Brilliant finish by Welbeck as well, nice through ball by Young. Gerrard and Parker were decent, I thought. Chamberlain tried to hard, needs to pass more and just get back into space and look for it again. Should be a decent impact sub though.

Mertens is a dirty *bleep*, no need to push Cahill.

We're still going to win the Euros.

Chelsea were 'extremely lucky' in the Champions League, still won it by being defensive.

hes a *bleep*ing *bleep*

its a friendly game, no need to go around shoving people forcing a collision.

what was the post saying, how come I was quoted?

Is it that absurd me saying Ronaldo won't be top scorer?

Not at all. But you've basically said there's no chance of it happening when there clearly is. Not sure what shape Portugal's squad is in but if Nani is actually on form then him and Ronaldo can be lethal.

Cant see Portugal getting through their group. He'll have to score 1 vs Germany and Holland and get a hat trick vs Denmark.

Why is it?

His own manager came out and said his fitness levels don't allow him to play a game every 4 days, like the Euros asks.

He's the wrong side of 30, he has major fitness concerns.

Why is it such a shock and so detrimental that Roy didn't look at him for a place in the team?

And he is nowhere near Terry's level anymore.

inb4 we keep a clean sheet vs France and everyone says they bottled it and we were lucky despite defending brilliantly.

quote Sweeney

i hope you'll hold your hands up when we get beat about 5-0

as long as they are in excellent condition anyway

If we get smashed, I'll admit to Roy getting it wrong.

I also want everyone who has questioned his tactical approach and call up of players to hold their hands up if he gets it right.

Did I specify he would have been tactically wrong? No, I did not.

If we get smashed, it proves his overall team selection (plus a couple of injuries) would have been wrong.

In what way am I resistant?

Should I just stop thinking we're going to beat them cos apparently they have a better squad?

They have a better collection of players, yes. But do they have a better squad and a better team?

That will be answered in 6 days.

MESSIAH

yeah i was, cheers

could do without any injuries!

Agree with Chappy.

Dont see the point in still playing the generation of failed England players. Give all the new lads a chance. Its no wonder players like Chamberlain are pulling out when hes still back up to Adam Johnson.
