Ahhhh!!!!!

See above.

Chris Coleman is an ignorant moron too then. It is remarkable that someone can make a living in the game and be so useless. The reason he looked up was to see where the keeper was.

Now you're just proving it. Juan tried to lob a bouncing ball with the side of his foot and messed it up. Maicon tried to hammer it in at the near post with swerve and did so. Anyone who has any footballing ability can see he was trying to do that by the way he hit the ball. There was no need to cream it like that. He had time and space and players to pick out in the middle. It was a great shot. That is obvious.

He's such a tosser! It must be hard being such a tosser.

I'm sorry but you're both clueless.

It was clearly entirely deliberate. No luck whatsoever. Great goal.

What an idiot that commentator is. Anyone could see that was a brilliant strike by Maicon. "That was own goal.. blah, blah, blah.... did he mean it? blah blah blah". Ignorant ****. If he can't tell from Maicon's body position and strike technique in real-time that that was a shot then he isn't qualified to do the job. Moron.

They are utter, utter ****e. Complete ****. Massive poo. Toss-burgers.

I agree with him. And Swindon will be one of the teams who are weaker this season.

I agree with these.

Do they own Boateng? I thought he was on loan.

His kicking is excellent. Some of the most accurate distribution I have ever seen from a keeper. I can't believe you've said that.

If we don't start picking Joe Cole we have no chance. We need Barry back, Roo up on his own and Cole. I fear we are stuffed at centre back too. As soon as we come up against a good side we will lose.

I said the USA were gash. I mean as a team. No one in particular. Just their aggregate effectiveness and team ability. They would be a bottom third Prem team. Pretty gash for a country that's playing in its fifth consecutive World Cup. They were dominated throughout the seond half by a poor England side and only got a point due to a massive individual error. Yes, I saw Altidore's bustling run. Pretty swell, huh, making a b!tch of the UKland's fourth choice centre defenceman? What a stand-up kinda guy. I remember it clearly as it was the only time in the match they managed a decent attack. They defended ok. None of the better teams will be the least bit concerned about playing them though. I realise my opinion on the England team was in a different post to my "gash" verdict on the USandA (yeehaa) but if you've seen that post you'll realise that I am of the opinion that England are also pretty gash, just a fair bit less gash.

Thanks +1! I'm sure I remember him being good in '98!

The team was better IMO. I probably should have said "team" rather than "squad". In terms of shape and play as well as make-up. We were let down in '06 by Ericson's over conservatism and Rooney's red card. In '02 and '98 we were bloody unlucky. In any case, Anderton had a good world cup in 98. Keown is better than Carragher or Upson. Sinclair came on against the Argies after someone got injured and played a blinder. Our best option from the becnh didn't come on. Mental.

"Sash, sash, sash".

I cannot believe Capello doesn't start him. He is easily our best current international player, apart from perhaps Ashley Cole. I have will have serious misgivings about Capello if persists with SWP or Milner ahead of Cole. Let's face it folks, we have a much worse squad this year than we did in 98, 02 and 06 and we fecked it up those times. I've said all along that we will go out in the second round.

The US were gash and on another day England would have scored three or four. That said, England are not in the top 8 or so countries either so I don't think they will do very well. Slovenia will be a tough final match.

Arg are v good although for some reason they played a left winger at right back today. The would murder us(as would many) unless Maradonna pulled some sort of weird ****.

MLG He's saying that there is a nice lady in Cumbria that embodies the best, in Dune's opinion presumably, Christian virtues. Because of this, he is asking if it would have been beter if we had sided with the Nazis. I'm not sure I quite follow his flow myself.

Think I may get one tomorrow. Will be the first Saints shirt I've purchased since about 1992!

Bart's kicking is awful. Proper rank. KD is easily the better choice given our style of play.

South Korea are very good, albeit they might be gash at the back. There's no way of knowing because Greece are horse-plop. SK have a CM who is class. No idea who he is but I like the cut of his jib.
