Yeah him too , its a human fault , hanging on to a player far to long and as he is captain , thats it he has to play , anyway the fat lady is singing Spain is coming home and not football is coming home , that will come tomorrow when England play , I hope not but it wont surprise me if it did with Roy playing and hanging on to the so called golden generation that won notink and never look like winning anything . its a crime when we have a new generation of yes very good young players that need to play as they are the future and they like us are going to watch has beens like the rest of us fail again .....................EYWC

Not for a long time.
They said as much back in 1970 when England got knocked out!
What are you talking about?
Gerrard is as good as any English player in his particular role, Rooney is still worth a place in the side, Lampard won't be in the team and the side will be full of young guns such as Sterling, Sturridge, Welbeck, Henderson and Barklay with others such as Lallana and Shaw on the bench!

Crikey Spain didn't look bothered at all, seemed like they wanted to go home rather than battle it out!
Wonder if there's trouble within the ranks regarding playing for Costa rather than their usual game.

You did see the Italy match didn't you and were not watching a rerun of Euro 96 or something? Hanging on to the golden generation??? By that you mean playing Gerrard? It's hardly hanging on. What do you think he's going to do, recall Owen, Beckham and Paul Scholes?

Hmmm, just read he's born in Brazil, didn't know that.
Did you not wonder why he was booed so much lol.
I dont think hunk spain would throw it because if that thiugh. They weren't too special at conced cup. Football is cyclical, different styles last a time before being found out and countered.

From someone who clearly knows nothing about football.
The best thing to do then is not watch.

Any chance you translate the passage, highlighted in green, into English?
I really have not got a clue what that means.

At least now if England do go out we can honestly say we put in a better performance than Spain...

Seems a few teams in the World Cup have players who were not born in the country, and even who have played for other countries before playing for the team they now play for. Then again I suppose the English cricket team has always done this, so we should not really complain.

He didn't think incredible hulk who now plays for Spain would throw the game as he hurt his thigh? And the Specials were not very good at the World Cup concert?

Iphone autocorrect and tired eyes are good!
basically I didn't think that Spain would through the game as has been suggested because of costa. Too many winers in the team to do that. Also, they were gash in the confederations cup last year.

Could be wrong on this but I think he played for Brazil a couple of times!

Anybody changing their mind on their winners then after what you have seen so far? I went for Argentina but fancy Germany and even France to do quite well now.
