head wanted germany as spain have some ignorant c*nts playing for them

But heart was glad spanish flair won over german efficency.

For the record spain should of won 4,5-0. But i guess they couldnt care a less that they didnt.

....I'm not one to say I told you so but Torres did score the game winner



England sucks! Why? Frank Lampard....England could play better with 10 than with Frank on the field....hell I'd rather see Pennant starting than Lampard.

Its one of many reasons

The main beneficiary in our constant downfalls is the expectation we as a nation put on our football team.

We sent the 2006 side over to germany with a "dont come back without the trophy" type attitude regardless of the fact all we had to offer in terms of a forward line was a half fit rooney and peter crouch.

No side however good defensively will get anywhere unless they have natural goalscorers within the side.

Another problem is this inability we have to win scrappy games, unless we are on full throttle we just dont win. Its always been like that with english sides.

The fear of defeat is far greater than the idea of winning.

If our national side is to get anywhere we have to get over this belief that its our god given right to be beating everybody when in reality there are sides out there with far greater players and depth than us.

With Gerrard, Crouch, and Rooney England should be scoring more and should be scrappy enough to get by.

I think the problem with England is the coaching.



Whatever happened to Theo Walcott? I thought he was supposed to be the best thing ever and what is he doing only scoring 4 goals for Arsenal?
