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...

OK 2nd goal then LOL!!!!

KEEEERRRRCHINNNG!!!

Great Goal!

What a miss, what a match brilliant!

Good match & Howard defended his goal like a Trojan. Fellaini hopeless!

Tim Howard how many times has he saved the USA. If this team doesn't promote soccer in the USA then nothing will.

I think the Belgians will have a better chance against Argentina though.

Best match of the tournament.

Good team Harry.

I must be watching a different tournament Chris :-)

Says it all about what is wrong with PL wen I've been supporting Chile (Gary Medel) and S Korea (Kim Bo-Yung) and Man U and Everton fans are cheering on every other bugger in the World Cup that their players play for.

I can remember the day when the top British teams consisted of Brits.

... errr and I'm not talking Leighton James and Burnley Stan :-)

To be honest Dil haven't seen that many matches, been playing a lot of golf and bowls. The match last night apart from the extra time resembled a Premier League match.

Fellaini wasn't very impressive. But I did like his delightful and visionary pass to set up Belgium's second goal.

To regain confidence in the England Squad, Roy Hodgson has arranged a friendly against Iceland. Should they win, he will be arranging further friendlies in the future against Asda, Morrisons and Sainsbury's.

The England team went to visit an orphanage in Brazil after their first match. "It's good to put a smile on the faces of people with no hope, constantly struggling and facing the impossible." said Emilio Di Costa aged 6.

Future England games will be moved to the Gay Adult TV channel as the screening of eleven ar*eholes being hammered for 90 minutes is considered too explicit for ITV.

England played like Liverpool towards the end of the season, quite good going forward but leaving gaping holes in defence, without the Suarez punch upfront...

Yes indeed. I'm afraid Liverpool may well lose there bite in the new season too! :o)

The thing with losing possession in midfield if you are a player is to respond within a second or so and to harass the player that has dispossessed you even if you do not get the ball back, the opposing player will have little time to put a damaging pass in, if the England players respond quickly...too many times : England players are still pondering what to do after losing the ball...making a challenge in the middle of the park is the best place to do it....

Suarez will probably move to Barca.....Liverpool will miss him....

double post, sorry.....computer locks up sometimes...
