It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

Liverpool & Everton 3rd and 4th from bottom respectively, fun if they both get relegated - PMSL

Err don't hold your breath on Everton getting relegated. Liverpool? unfortunately I don't think so either, great result for Blackpool.

Never too good or too big to go down Chris, athough not much good about Liverpool at the moment (thought that comment would have you posting in no time - like shooting fish in a barrel!) :-)

I think that if somebody offered 90 million for Torres....I would accept it......just too much money for one player......that's one third of a 60000 seater stadium....or a great deal of debt payed off.

Excellent results this weekend. Arsenal lose and Spurs win. Both on 11 points and 7 games. Arsenal only one place ahead on goal differnce and hopefully the positiions will soon be reversed.

See where greed takes you Joe - down a division.

Liverpool Sold.

not quite skinny - its an "about to be" story

Another pathetic display by England.....Rooney looks like he needs a holiday...Lescott ?...what the hell does he do ?...Gerrard's free kicks = zero marks....all in all 2 out 10 for that performance...terrible...and what on earth is Wright-Philips doing in that side...?.....agghhhh....

The balance of this side is all wrong....Lescott...Wright-Philips...not good enough for an England selection.....Rooney and Gerrard...looked like something from a bad kick-around....and there was no creativity in midfield ....and why the hell did Defoe not come on ?....Capello is not getting this right .....

Well Done Scotland, never a hope in hell of winning that match but a gutsy performance and restoration of pride.

Wales lose every match they play in the group and then beat England and stop them qualifying for euro2012 it'll be the biggest party Scotland has ever seen :-)

Just out of interest ... where TF is Montenegro ???

Good job their one and only star(???) player and captain was ruled out through injury.

lol

Dil - Send us a pint of whatever your drinking mate :O)

Between Greece and Serbia.....somewhere there.....no imagination that England side ...what do I do with the ball?....long ball up front or down the side ..bang it in the middle...yuck style of play...crap !....frankly they are pretty hopeless.....and too many black players who haven't a clue as what to do with the ball.

I tell you what Spain were amazing to watch last night..it is simply the best team i have ever seen...their passing to people to their correct foot with the correct pace on the pass every time was amazing...however the thing that impressed me most was how they conducted themselves on the park...there was no complaining to the referee, a nice wee acknowledgement of a good tackle etc, no trying to get people booked or rolling around

They play the game and act the way footballers should...Gerrard, Rooney etc take note

Scotland at leats restored a bit of pride but we will not qualify...last Friday put us out and i will never forgive Levein for the tactics

and I cannot see anyone taking the title from Spain anyway.

Holland possibly......

nope...no chance they could not get near them in the WCF and nowt has changed...i tell you what though last night confirmed to me how far the home nations are behind the best teams...at times it was a footballing lesson last night and i think england need to have a think again if they think they will win anything soon...they are light years behind the spanish

I think you are forgetting how close Robben came to winning it for them.....but the Spanish deserved their world cup......good to see Scotland performing.....that English side ....not a clue as how to create chances or how to pass the ball in midfield, and if they do, they lose the ball....you need 8 white players and 3 black players in the side ....put 6 or 7 black players in, and the side will not perform...this lot are not Brazilians with flair....Wright Philps and Lescott should be dropped....the former is not a patch on his Dad....how we could do with Ian Wright now....Defoe should be in.....

LOL some wag has texted Liverpool Fc with a text, photograph of Hicks and Gillette in front of the Everton crest, arm in arm wearing Everton Fc ties. Love it! (BBC 24 hour news) :O)
