Anyone else noticed that England were a force to be reckoned with in the Qualifiers and have progressively gone downhill in friendlies and the WC? See the trend? Terry to Ferdinand to Gerrard.

Heskey out, Cole in. Cole and Lennon on the wings, Gerrard or Lamps behind Rooney with the other one partnering Barry and Dawson at centreback. OR, **** Gerrard and put Crouch in. Scott Parker, Carlton Cole, Zamora, Johnson, all players who I'd rather see right now.

******* hell, I was watching this one with friends after hearing the other matches were entertaining and got this to watch. **** England. And **** Gerrard as captain. He's been carrying a crap team for too long, so this is what happens when he's meant to carry England.

Slovenia to win the WC please.

Btw, all of Liverpool's players were ****e today. Everyone was poor, but they were particularly woeful.

How bout #### Fat Franck, he hasn't done **** either, at least Gerrard has a goal

 

[Pogba4Now]

Gerrard has been better than Lampard so far. But both have been piss poor. Rooney also. There's no coordination at all. England, just like France is just a group of individuals. Not a team.

Problem solved.

How the f*** do you draw against Algeria? England should have crushed them. About the US-Slovenia game, horrible call by the ref on what should have been the game winning goal.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Everything I'm reading about that Germany-Serbia ref seems to indicate he's the Uriah Rennie of Spain.

I think you hit the nail on the head there.

 

[adedawson]

I think the teams mentally shot too.

Hows does Rooney go from scoring over 34 goals, banging them in left right and centre for club and country... then this. No one feeding him right?

 

[mnj2x]

Thats just plain dumb by rooney. He has been disappointing thus far in WC and he has the cheek to say that. The england fans who pay so much money to fly to SA and support their team deserve better and all they got was 2 ****e performances. I think they had every right too boo the hell outta the team.

Rooney's the man. I'd tell all those idiots to **** off too. Marx was wrong with religion, sports is mos def the modern day opiate of the masses...along with chicks, scrilla and some other things.

 

[ShearerM4]

I don't have a problem with Rooney saying that in the heat of the aftermath, and I don't have a problem with fans who paid hundreds if not thousands to be there booing. If I was pushed, obviously, Rooney is more in the wrong.

There was a lot of frustration on both sides of the fence, let's just move on.

 

[Pogba4Now]

That was dumb imo. People from England come all the way to Africa to watch England play and they put such a pathetic show. England fans were expecting much more of them and are totally right to boo at them.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Can anyone transcribe what he said? Couldn't understand a word.

 

[Kimikal™]

"Nice to see your home fans booing you, that's what loyal support is."

I have to agree with Rooney, you should be with the team all the way, no matter what. They still can qualify if they win against Slovenia.

totaly true!

 

[Pogba4Now]

At least he appologised.

"I said things in the heat of the moment out of frustration of our performance and the result," he said in a Football Association statement.

"For my part I apologise for any offence caused by my actions."

[ShiftyPowers]

Good move by Wayne. I completely understand why he said that, and if it was me I probably would have thrown an f-bomb in there too. But on the other hand, they played like absolute **** and a lot of very loyal supporters spend a lot of money to come down and watch them play.
