its something to do with him playing Overseas, he probably has the best knowledge of the world game in the whole England squad. Plus when he played under Eriksson he was Englands best player. Nothing special though.

With England they very good at battering lower tier teams, but when it comes to playing serious games against serious opponents, England's weaknesses are exploited.

Ive seen United play this season without a LM at all a few times. As long as its covered defencivly, if you dont have a left winger then dont play one.

so you'd have them both on the left, without a right mid/winger?

they could do the opposite of what man u did this year, or did you mean play them both on the right in some sort of interchanging formation?

Slovenia played 0:0 against Slovakia. We should've won, altho Baros almost gave us a goal from an action that didn't look dangerous. Uninteresting game to watch, only like 3 real chances on both sides. Even the possesion was 50:50.

N. Ireland beaten Poland 3:2, N.I. were far far better. I don't know what was Poland's defence doing....and their goalkeeper sucked ass.

christ what a piss-take that nederland scotland game was. I guess only 3-0 is a blessing when we've got fucking FOUR second choice defenders.

I know you're a United "supporter," but damn, that's an over evaluation if ever I saw one.

look at this sad bitter kraut pissing blood out his pussy because his club got ditched in favor of United.

PLayers have ambitions, no one who is worth more is gonna stay at a club like Bayern longer than they have to, get usd to it, kraut

Ecuador just took a giant 90min shit all over the brazil "team", but somehow Brazil scored with like their only real shot, but Ecuador FINALLY scored in the last minute. Just watched whole game, great game.

Brasil look terrible lol.

And then tey bring on the midget Dunga-lovechild Josue to try to sort out their invisible mid, and he just makes things worse. Meanwhile Anderson didnt even make it to the bench.

R10 was poor, Pato should be playing, so should The Beast.

Brazil never do well in Qualifiers. I watch alot of their games and they jus play shit. like they cant be bothered. but they seem to do enough to qualify. thats what really matters though.

yeah i know but this was on a different level to what ive seen in the past.

they honestly really couldve lost about 7-0 on another day.

Julio Cesar is one of the best GK's in the world, though, no doubt.

oh yeah Julio Cesar is a pretty sik keeper, really underrated at the moment. His got really good reactions so can pull off some real quick saves.

i think pato is possibly brazils best forward at the moment. and kaka when healthy, but hes not a true forward.

ronnie needs to run, plain and simple. for milan he doesnt try and dribble or take anyone on until like the last minute of the game. idk what his problem is. if your not getting the ball at your feet, go get the ball. check down. dont just stand on the wing.

i currently think, and have always thought, baptista is terrible. he is one of the most unbrazilian brazilians i have ever seen. his touch is that of a rapist, and he has poor vision and creativity. also does not score regularly enough to be a forward. does not posses the request skills to be a midfielder.

id like to see mancini there more, but hes way to inconsistent. can be phenomal some games, than just be non existant in others.


theres some talks about the real R9 being able to get back in the squad for 2010. would be interesting.

Kaka is injured, he didnt play.

Baptista is OK, def squad player.

Mancini? hm. I dont think he'll ever get a chance, if he was gonna get a real go, it wouldve happened a few years ago. He hasnt played for Inter even for ages. Well, hes better than Elano, who played today somewhere in midfield, i couldnt tell where though, he honestly only touched the ball 2 times.

Fabiano IMO isnt a TOP level striker, and never will be.

But not only is Dunga one of the most inept national managers in world football (he has somehow managed Brasil to 5 consecutive games without scoring, 3 of which were at home), he also has the worst choice of players.

Their defence is the most shocking part though.

Marcelo pretty much got beaten every single time tonight. Maicon went off injured, whos easily their best player in the back 4, and maybe their whole team in tonights line up, so that didnt help.

im surprised Dunga has not been sacked yet. Usually Brazil sack a manager if they dnt score 3 goals per game.

He does put out shit teams, but the biggest problem with managing Brazil is probably picking the squad. The amount of talent is obviously huge. I think Dunga picks players who will obey his every command and not the ones who would benefit the team more.

Who is bitter?

20m for a player who has played about 5 minutes in two seasons.

We went and spent that money on Ribery.

Danke.

central midfield mainly is pathetically inept and incredibly un dynamic.

Lampard without his chelsea players around him is exposed. although he is a goal threat. But he isnt a CM in a 442. Especially alongside Barry.

Where the fuck is Carrick?

Barry isnt international level in many ways, mainly in agilty, speed, and influence. all things needed for a CM vitally.

Only worthwhile England players are Rooney, Gerrard, Walcott and Ferdinand.

Fucking Downing is the most embarrasing excuse for a player in a long time.

Downing came on, against fucking SLOVAKIA, while we were 2-0 up I might add i think, and did NOTHING apart from pass the ball BACKWARDS slowly, and jog around again very slowly.

Non of them work hard enough.

Fuck em.

I wouldnt even care if we didnt have the fucking MEDIA constantly talking shit abotu how good we are.


As for Beckham, SMH.

The love affair with this man is now long past a joke for me.

We have at least 4 players that are faaaaaaaaaaaaar superior RM's

Walcott
Lennon
SWP
J Cole (fuck LM)


Beckhams era HAS PASSED. Hes had like 3 WC's, his chance should be over. He was piss poor in every WC he's played in, non of his England teams have ever acheived anything past QF, why the fuck is he still getting a chance.


Even if he CAN do a job, even if he IS somehow valuable, I DONT CARE, you need to refresh things, regardles of whether he can still whip in a good cross. New blood needs to come in.

Old teams, with no pace, dont do well in international tournaments.


I FUCKING HATE INTERNATIONAL WEEKS

beckham was good for us against slovakia he crossed the ball back in from an uncrossable position and got the head of rooney, and a goal. (think it was rooney)

we didnt play that well... yet we won 4-0.

we fucking dominated croatia at the start of capello's reign.

you think we're shit? hmmmm ok. you have lost all integrity with that statement.

just out of interest... ghostlaced, did you watch the england match live? carrick played second half.
