Anyway, this bloody tosser thought Germany and Serbia would play curling instead of football!

I'm a curler and I don't get it.

You may still advance... If you beat SouthAfrica with lots of goals, and Mexico or Uruguay loose, you may advance.

Yeah sure, it's still possible! ... if Mexico loose and we beat South Africa 4-0... I belive in us :sick:

By far the worst England performance I have ever seen from England. I'm a big fan of Capello and even if he didn't get it tactically spot on today you'd STILL expect England to beat FUCKING Algeria! No - it was ALL down to the so called 'world class' players. I saw tonight some awful performances, but by far it was the worst performance EVER by Wayne Rooney. This guy has been found out tonight as nothing but an overhyped chancer who doesn't have the attitude to succeed on the big level. And we've found out he mocked the fans at the end of the match saying 'It's nice to be booed by our own fans isn't it'. Yes - the very people who paid thousands of pounds to watch the side they passionately follow their football team and they get slagged off by one of their own players and by a player who they heap most hope on and he has the braveness to put out a horrendous individual performance like that and then say something like that. Utter ****.

The only man who remotely looked like doing anything was Gerrard. Yeah he didn't have a great match but he was the only man who was able to create attacks.

 

They say the England team from Italia 90 drew their first 2 group games. Well the difference between Italia 90 and 2010 was that in 1990 England had a team of adults.

I can't believe half of the England squad are making dicks of themselves recording slots on the James Corden show for showing during the world cup. It was embarassing watching John Terry collapsing on his fishing chair minutes after he's just played a shocker on the pitch. :angry: And I hope England never bring in a foreign coach again. A pumped up Stuart Pearce would have got the team in to the Round of 16 by now. Just watch the Argentinians go, now there's a country with "team spirit" and a coach in charge who knows how to motivate his countrymen!

I don't think so. There's only so much an exceptional manager like Capello can do. I wouldn't call for his head considering his exceptional record before this tournament and his exceptional record at club level. He obviously cares about his job passionately and I do not buy into the whole 'only an English manager can understand' etc etc. These players simply cannot handle the pressure of playing on the world stage.

What happened to England, I thought they were good? :uhoh:

Well I think the same thing that happened to France^^

France play well, but they can't score.

I'm a curler

 

Sincere condolences. ;)

France didnt play at all :lol:

 

 

0 actitude!

Sincere condolences. ;)

funk you.

France play well, but they can't score.

They didn't play well at all! They're great players but they just can't play together..

Wayne Rooney is acting out of order and now David James responded to the question 'Capello thinks the team played with too much pressure. Is that true?' And David James responds 'Does he?' in a very blunt, forceful and sarcastic manner. It's going tits up right in front of our very eyes and if that isn't bad enough, David Beckham was confronted by a FAN in the dressing room who was somehow allowed to walk right into the dressing room and Capello left the swarm of journalists walking away shaking his head. I feel sorry for you Fabio that you had to inherit a bunch of incompetent, wimpy ****s.

ella ella ella...........

I don't think his nationality matters but Capello's English is very poor. I wonder if he can even understand all of his players.

 

As for Rooney, what he did was stupid but I kinda feel for him. He knows he isn't performing well and he must feel the pressure big time. I guess he was just very frustrated.

I honestly feel sorry for Fabio Capello. Here's a man who's got a fantastic reputation before this tournament unlike his players and he's seeing some of it unravel because of the attitude of his players.

BREAKING NEWS!

 

Sven Goran Eriksson presses ahead with the publication of his autobiography. 'England 2001-2006 - The Glory Years'.

This world cup its really weird!

 

the favourites are not more favourites :lol:

 

I've noticed the same thing...either we're seeing a new generation of football in which there are no clear front runners and the powerhouses are no longer powerhouses, or this ball and/or environment is having an effect on everything.

 

As for the USA and England, I don't know about you English fans, but I certainly don't want to move onto the next round with THREE DRAWS. If we don't beat Algeria, I don't want to get slaughtered in the round of 16, and I'm sure you all feel the same about your game against Slovenia.

What's amazing is that both teams could still win the group after all this.

Explains the different things that can happen in group C.

basically, every possible combination of qualifiers is possible.

its nice like this the worlcup :wacko:

 

means that a surprise may happen :escaping:

Police say South African man killed for watching soccer

 

 

 

JOHANNESBURG (AP) -- Police say a South African man who wanted to watch a World Cup match instead of a religious program was beaten to death by his family in the northeastern part of the country.

David Makoeya, a 61-year-old man from the small village of Makweya, Limpopo province, fought with his wife and two children for the remote control on Sunday because he wanted to watch Germany play Australia in the World Cup. The others, however, wanted to watch a gospel show.

"He said, 'No, I want to watch soccer,''' police spokesman Mothemane Malefo said Thursday. "That is when the argument came about.

"In that argument, they started assaulting him.''

Malefo said Makoeya got up to change the channel by hand after being refused the remote control and was attacked by his 68-year-old wife Francina and two children, 36-year-old son Collin and 23-year-old daughter Lebogang.

Malefo said he was not sure what the family used to kill Makoeya.

"It appears they banged his head against the wall,'' Malefo said. "They phoned the police only after he was badly injured, but by the time the police arrived the man was already dead.''

All three were arrested Sunday night, but Lebogang was released on $200 bail Tuesday, Malefo said. The other two are still being held in custody.

Malefo said the mother and son will reappear in the local Seshego Magistrates Court on July 27.

"He was always a happy man, never violent,'' Makoeya's nieces, Miriam and Anna, told the Daily Sun newspaper. "On Saturday, we saw him the last time at a funeral.''

The World Cup, being played in Africa for the first time, started Friday and runs through July 11. Although most the tickets for the 64-game tournament have been sold, many in South Africa are too poor to attend matches.

For those of you who missed it...the controversial call against the US is at the end of this video: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/video/clip?id=5301919&categoryid=4823314&cc=5901&ver=us

Referee could be axed.....(not literally)

^^I kind've want to literally ax him.

 

That was the worst call I've ever seen in my entire life. He could very well be anti-American, but he also could very well be a dumbass. I think it's a mix of both.

 

That call drove me NUTS all day. NUTS. I think I popped a chip in my brain from screaming my head off at the TV. Great game for the US, in my head, they won 3-2.

 

And I'm not even going to talk about how pathetic England looked.
