Thought I'd start a football blog, we might keep this going until 2010.....England doing well....did not see the match or even the goals....I'd like Michael owen back in the squad though....and I think Peter Crouch would make a very good substitute...remember against Argentina in Geneva a few years ago....with Michael Owen and some very good movements on and off the ball...they caused havoc.....did see Scotland's missed chance....that could be very costly losing those 2 points !.

... everybody ???

Yes, you as well Dil !....

Green's out:

England Win 2/9
Draw 9/2
Algeria Win 12/1

No brainer

Shrek Rooney will score 2

Robot will score 1

Cynics pad

Germany lose very sad. ha,ha It must be the ball fault.

Yes not too upset for the Germans - but that ref!!!

Missed penalty plus spanish ref was very picky!

Lets hope we don't get that ref in any of our matches. Maybe he is on a bung from the chinese mafia betting mob.

Rooney disinterested;
Gerard out of form
Lampard an international joke.

...and they're the best players ....

Pretty much agree dd.
Difficult to sum up how poor this peformance has been, but I'll give it a go.

The back four, with the exception of Ash Cole is awful, a decent team is going to rip them to pieces, no doubt about that.

The midfield is unbalanced, Lampard has been a spectator for two games and should be ashamed of his level of effort and performance; he should be dropped and Gerrard moved into the centre, with Joe Cole given an opportunity on the left.

Heskey, doesn't score goals and he hasn't been anywhere near as effective as in the USA game. What on earth has happened to Rooney? How has he gone from such an outstanding player with Utd to a total loss tonight? It is all beyond me.

At the end of the day, the team looks uncomfortable and Capello seems to be in the process of proving he is uncapable of making the right changes when it's going badly. The sooner we're knocked out of this competition, the better, I really just can't stand the disappointment at every major tournament :-(

Make me eat my words England!

BRING ON JOE COLE....what the hell is the matter with those liverpool players.....?...pathetic....Glen Johnson should not be on the field in that form....did not kick one single ball straght....Lampard did nothing....aghhhh...yuck....i

Can only get better, has to! You can see and feel the frustration, Capello has got it wrong it's so kin obvious.

CC, we all thought that after the USA game and it just got a whole lot worse. Unless they click against Slovenia, they are off home, simples.

What ?, they can't put some passes together....John Terry was like in the twilight zone....a team from league 2 would have beaten them today .....long balls up to Heskey...what a Crap way of playing....

RF, Lampard plays for Chelski! (But you probably knew that). In such a pivotal position, he is probably the worst player in the side, will Capello have the guts to drop him? I doubt it, Gerrard is the natural replacement.

Pants, but at least they didn't lose. How bad would that have been?!!!

JC is the answer.....don't these players know that this is not the tiddlywinks league where a mistake happens 3 times a minute....and then they have the ball again...that doesn't happen here...forget about the golf course, thay should be training.....
