Smirking_Saint

As much as i hate the c*nt, he always always talks sense and will make a great manager playing attacking football and gets the best out of players. The thing i hated about after the game today was when you saw the Italians go out, they were crying and inconsoleable, Lampard was smiling and changing shirts. It looked more like players p*ssed off they were missing their off season holidays then playing for the country in arguably the LAST chance of a world cup they could. Fair play to Gerrard, Terry and James who looked upset, but the others looked unfazed. C*nts

Was something i came up against when i done my coaching badges mate, unfortunately none of the companies that i worked for (one of which was Saints) shared my opinion that we should develop a more continental approach to teaching youngsters, although i paid for and downloaded/bought continental coaching techniques and put my opinion across and actually i got a broadside when i attempted it with a group of under 5's, although it was working. The English will always coach one way, it will never change mate.

Honestly, its a fault at the FA we have not been in the running for years. What bright young stars have we on the periphery of an England squad ?? What is more scary about this england tournament performance is i can only see the team becoming weaker.

Its the same as anything and the same as playing. It is THE pinnicle level for a reason, and good players will be found out to be not good enough as well as good managers IMO.

Well that was f*cking aweful, f*cking f*cking aweful. The Germans just looked so so much better than us, and in all honesty it was pace that you saw, something that the England team seriously lacked. This is just a few of the things i saw today, Upson was never at the races, Klose made him look average at best, and this is a man that had a decent season at West Ham. Terry was caught out of position time and time again, laughable at times, if that was the lads on a Sunday i would have been screaming at them. I couldn't understand if Barry was man marking Oezil or not, at times i thought he was and at times he seemed to forget, problem was that when you man mark someone you give the chance for that player to drag the team around and open spaces, this it what happened and Germany played it well, as if they knew it would happen. Rooney, well, we all know he has not performed. Capello - What the f*ck are you doing man, you want to win a game, and not even getting into the Heskey situation, cos we ALL know, WHY TAKE A STRIKER OFF ?? We needed a goal, we needed 3 goals, and then to put J.Cole on when we were screaming for pace and commitment, J.Cole is a man that likes to slow play etc, not what we needed. And another thing, Lampards free kicks, useless, they have been all tournament so why keep banging your head against a brick wall ?? If you know he was shooting why commit your best defenders up there ?? Why ?? It was bad, it was very bad and it was the worst overall performance from England i have ever seen.

England were sh*te, very very sh*te, but Saints have shown me nothing to tell me they could cope against England,infact you would find it hard to point me in the direction of anyone with any footballing knowlege that would say a Lg 1 side or even CCC would beat england. And Turkish...................... I really can't defend them, nor Capello, that was aweful, passionless and made me sick to the stomach to support them.

I really don't understand all the saints would beat england crap people keep spouting, it really is just such sh*te. I fully expect us to up our performance today, playing sh*t in the group stages was always a given, we always scrape through against lower opposition. But if they can't get motivated against Ze Germanz then well, whats the point ? Do us proud england

Fabregas isn't. Torres is, he is just not performing. Problem is, unlike us, they have far better players on the bench.

I think my favourite prediction was the no scorer in the North Korea Vs Portugal match.

Best game to get a nuke, if you can stay alive long enough that is.

Nice to see Aintforever sticking up for all the thugs. Ye of little braincells stick together an all that. If you can't tell the difference between incitement and 2 guys having a punch up you are a nob. As for your 'evidence' like i said before, you are always going to get cases that are sentanced very very lenientely, but you can't use it as..... 'he got off why can't I'

I would love it, But he is playing for CSKA, so it'll never happen mate.

Cracking free kicks too, Honda is a quality player, great engine on him

I can't see Harding being simply replaced because IMO it would damage the squad morale, Dickson will come in and attempt to win the position if not move onto LM maybe infront of Harding. If he is good enough (and i think he probably is) to take the position then fair play to him, we want to move on up and buying the best is how to do that. Harding won't be moving to CB, and i very much doubt he will be a RB in anything other than an emergency, as a manager you just don't play a man that is predominatly left footed at RB, it doesn't make sense. I would imagine Holmes is gone, with Harding/Dickson LB with Mills/Dickson also posing competition for the LM slot.

I was only playing the guessing game.............. They have not posted under the new regime, do you think they are allowed ?

I will go for, hmmmm 18.5k

Africa just don't have the funds to develop one of their own into a WC winning side in the short term, IMO. The Asian teams are also looking stronger and have more money to help improve the national team, the japanese league isn't a bad league TBF, i have seen a few games and i wasn't bored watching it, its quick and technical. Their teams are also organised and seem to play with a lot of passion and togetherness, something i think todays cash bloated stars lack (in all countries). USA will be a massive massive team in around 10 years i would believe, the national league is getting stronger and improving in technical ability and football is beginning to become a household sport over there, especially for the youth element who now participate in their droves. This linked with the fact that IMO they have a fantastic youth development programme that is the same sort of thing as the NFL in the MLS pick at the start of the season enables the lesser teams to get hold of the brighter talents... well... in essance anyways. This means unlike over here the young stars actually get competetive football.

Nice to see someone else sees my point of view

Your not Greek

Good idea

Is there any chance that there can be some sort of alert when someone qoutes one of your posts instead of trawling through every thread to ensure nobody has asked you a question ?? Obviously this could annoy some people so a simple alert or not alert button could be included ??

But it depends in what context though doesn't it ?? And it depends how you describe the action and what other factors you choose to include or exclude. If i go to football, have a skinfull and cause incitement then yes, i am going to face the consequences. Don't get me wrong, i am no angel, and have been involved in enough scrapes etc, but esentially a public violent order offence will count against you for merely being involved with others throwing missiles etc and so you will essentially be getting similar sentances to standing next to someone. It looked ugly, it could have gotten more ugly, if they were really worried about their livelihoods then they would have thought twice.

Shaking a fence and so IMO causing threatening behaviour towards a group of already aggrivated people is in essance incitement to violence. So yes, the punishment is fitting. The consequences that are loosing livelihood etc are a not entity really.
