1-0.... yawn
wow i kno England got nothing to play for, but damn bit more energy is needed in this game.
I havent seen any good ball movement from the USA yet. they seem to be very sloppy when they get the ball. trying things they really shouldnt.
We looked lazy as you'd expect given it was a friendly just after the season ended. USA were terrible though.
Didn't watch it.
Anything worth knowing?
Any good performances?
you missed Gary Lineaker's awful attempt at an American accent, when commenting on the 70 yard Beckham goal at halftime.Quote:

What goal is that?
the match was very one sided, England did show some moments of class. but overall they werent giving it any more than 60%. they really didnt need to, cause America jus werent doing anything positive.
and the goal they were talking about is this one.

It was the classic England performance. It's easiest to use the analogy of trying to start a fire in the rain - just as it seems to be getting started, it goes out again.
usa is terrible. granted they were missing some of their "better" players. (i use that in relation to their own players, not other internationals) its like they have no concept on how to play. there is 0 attempt to keep possession, the first touch is very poor. a big lack of imagination.
england on the other hand, clearly are more technically superior , but there also was a lack of imagination and flair in their play. rooney looked like the only was who was really trying. the touch did seem off a bit for a lot of the players, they seemed to miss routine passes by a foot or two. it may have just been "end of the season lets get this over with", but who knows.
Yeah I think that's it...end of the season.
And friendlies are always wack in my opinion.
Rooney ain't well...I swear he should get sent off a lot more than he does...
I'm sure he has been sent off before ?
Sometimes I think of little kids watching the game...
And you see Rooney (clearly not just him) swearing like a madman at the Ref or Linesman...
I'm all for passion and arguing ...but damn.
They are way over payed and they act like bitches...with foul mouths.
They need to cut that shit out of the game...
Or actually have the balls to send them off.
Just have some authority for fucks sake !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like when that Mark Clattenberg pushed the Reading player
When he squared up to another player...Hahahaha that was joke
Gonna be interesting to see what the Refs are like in the Euro...
I mean they don't carry on like that in American sports...not from what I've seen
If anything it's the Coach who spits his dummy out.
And what of the little kids reading this board? As a Vatican they will look up to you. You should be ashamed of yourself whers.Quote:

I'm just saying that they are viewed as "heroes"
There's no need to carry on like they do...especially Rooney.
Everytime I see that I just shake my head.
Haha I was joking! I just found it funny that while complaing about Rooney's foul language, you used the word 'fuck'!
Trust me though, the players are the very least of their worries. Having been at the game last night, I can tell you that all the small children in the stands can hear during the match is "What the fuck was that? Fuckin useless cunt! Fuckin ref doesn't fuckin know what the fuck he's doin!" from half the blokes in the stands.
Hahahahaha
I just clocked that myself...Damn...
I've got Insomnia so I'll blame it on that I guess !!!!!!
I rarely swear though...just got a bit passionate for a sec back there.
What's up with the name change ?
I'm feeling it though.
Got my card finally too.
I'll sort out those squids for ya...
Change is a good thing! 36Chambers stopped reading the usernamechange thread, so I decided to edit my request every week and when the music stopped (Tomb or 36 read my post) I'd stick with that name!
PM me about the dvds.
Well...It's certainly unique.
Which I really like.
Inter Milan finally sack Mancini. it seems a Mourihno will take his place.
this has made Mancini a candidate for Chelsea to.
What honestly qualifies Mancini for managing top teams? He gets 2 scudetti handed to him and the third is also nothing to phone home about. he won it against a weakened juve, an old milan, and 1 good challenger (although not very deep) roma.
hes done very poor in europe.
and this is all with one of the deepest, most talent rich teams in the world. so honestly someone answer me, why would roman want to bring mancini in to coach Chelsea?
Roman's first target i believe will be Scolari. managers like Rijkaard and Mancini are 2nd to him on the Chelsea list. its their reputations that make ppl believe they are good managers. not saying they aint, but their reputations for being good footballers back in the day, do them well when it comes to managerial jobs.
interesting thing i saw on the news today, the worlds most profitable league isnt the Premiership infact its the Bundesliga. last season the Premiership made a total of £95million profit, while the Bundesliga made £168million. the reason for why the premiership is less profitable is the rise in footballer wages. to solve this next season expect premiership season tickets to rise by an average of 20%.
So FIFA votes for foreign players limits. Just wait for the European Pariliament to tell them they're not allowed to.
i heard scolari wasnt interested in chelseaQuote:

when scoalri back down at the end of the euro
rijkaard seems like the perfect candidate for chelsea coz roman loved the barca brand of football..according to roman barca plays the enertaining football :cheerlie:
lol
hahahaha yeah FIFA are pretty stupid for that rule. even if it was allowed, there is always a way round it.Quote:

jus under a week now for the Euro champs. been watching the friendlies, i can honestly say no team looks ready.
^ yea whats up with that
friggen hungary is givin everyone problems
I'm going with Spain, with Croatia as a dark horse contender. Here's a video to remind you of some classic Euro goals:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/euro2008/..._you_with.html
In other news:
"Goalkeeper Mark Bosnich, who retired in 2003, wants a dramatic return to English football." (The Sun)
My local pub side is looking for a goalkeeper, and they're a bunch of fat coke heads as well. He'd fit right in.
Gazza has been sectioned under the mental health act again. Poor guy has some serious problems.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/7431283.stm
shame about Gazza, he ruined himself though. couldnt really handle the fame and fortune that football came with.
Mourihno officially Inter Milans manager. good news for Inter.
bad news for Italy, Cannavaro is injured and ruled out of Italy's squad. damn shame, one of my favourite players.
I know it's old and opinions have already been told, but Chelsea sacking Grant was unfair
yes it was unfair cause to be honest Grant did a very good job with Chelsea.
2nd in the Premiership just losing out on the last day.
Champs League Runners-up.
i mean ok they didnt win anything but Grants accomplishments are very respectable.
but Chelsea are a big club and big clubs need big name managers. jus how football is nowadays.
not to forget that he didn't even start the seasonQuote:

Grant should never have got the job in the first place. He wasn't qualified for it.
What do you guys think of the '6+5' idea?
I think the European court will shoot it down in a heartbeat. You can't ban people from employing EU workers at McDonalds, and a football club is no different.
True.Quote:

Senderos is one of my favourite players. I wish he'd start every game. But then I am a yid.
