Germany v England. Sunday 27th June @ 15.00.

I'd rather be a P*k* than a Kraut. You must have heard that one?

Let's just cut crap like that right out. Regardless of what is or isn't being sung.

 

[Blue Ray]

Just watched those last two German goals again. Glen Johnson...watch this fcuking idiot's positioning. It's almost a piece of art in lack of concentration. The 4th goal he's jogging back in the German half...when the ball gets put in the English net by Mueller!!

It's staggering anyone thinks he's international class. I know all the defence were poor today, but if you have someone like him with so much ill discipline it must be hard to think and act like a unit. He's a lanky right sided midfielder who found his level at Portsmouth.

Was found out big time today. Cant understand why he's in there myself but my guess is he'll be there for good now.

For me Capello on £6million a year HAS to go.


Hodgeson for cert. Knows how to spot develop players and has international experience and he's english.


Some of the players we brought over were frankly not good enough.

Sick of these players only being interested in money and or their endorsements.

Capello could have done better, yes. But it's like plaiting sawdust trying to get these arrogant, ill disciplined, overpaid 'stars' to apply themeslves to what he wants done. The feller is calmness personified in normal club circumstances - managing England has turned him into the Tasmanian Devil on the touchline. He'd have gotten better perormances out of a Serie B team at this world cup than England.

I'm sure you will, but it gonna need lots of hard work and unpopular decisions. The Premiership is the biggest league in the world, but I also feel it's killing your national team. The only way for you guys to restore the pride of the three lions, is by improving the youth academies. Hope you succeed in that, because as I said, think it's a shame to see England in such a state. A county with a tradition like yours, simply deserves better.

Hang on a second - England only a month ago won the U18 European Championships... beating Spain in the final.

The youth is there.

Its just without someone like Hodgeson and without the clubs taking the piss, then it's always going to be [Poor language removed] on a stage like this.

£6million for Capello is a disgrace though.

The central defenders Fabio decided on were always going to be found out. You have one who has legs of glass, one who shags other players wives, one who played awful for a club who was down the bottom of the league, one who didn't want to play for England until the world cup.
Didn't surprise me they were so bad all tournament.

Some good points there.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Glen Johnson is a offensive fullback but Hibbert plays a lot better defensively.

Fair play to the German's, they made England look like the total mugs they are. Also my respect goes to the German's for showing some respect & humility at the final whistle..

 

[ToxtethBlue]

Indeed, watch Hodgson fail and then people will come back with the 'he's far too laid back' shouts. Why isn't he motivating these ridiculously talented Ingerlund players?

 

[bluebloodinmyveins]

Fabio is just too stubborn to be an International manager. You need to be able to see things and adapt to them. Not stubbornly refuse to change things that everyone else and can see and accept but you.

Spot on there. Not the best ingredients for success..

Glen Johnson isn't good enough to be the water boy.

 

[Blue Ray]

Ah well am off to bed. Got work again in the early hours and a 12 hour shift up and down the motorways in the middle of the night is gonna be more exciting than England were today. Best thing about it is there'll be no parties going on round here to keep me awake.

expected

 

[manxtoffee]

I think Capello should stay, continuity, new faces and all that..
