WELL DONE ENGLAND o/t

[TF_Dodge]

Terrific performance from England this afternoon ~clap ~clap ~clap could of easily been 3 or 4 nil but nevermind we are through which looked highly unlikley 24 hours ago ~sick LOL . I and many others have given John Terry some stick lately but i thought he put in a top top performance for England today ….. well done that man and all the other England players who wore the RED SHIRT today ~clap ~clap ~clap

HIC ! lol

Stop the bandwagon I want to get back on. Great performance. As Dodge said Terry was outstanding.
~clap ~clap ~clap

[TF_Dodge]

How bad was the pitch ?

Well done Mr Capello aswell ~clap ~clap ~clap

[Wangla]

Must admit Dodge even tho we dont look like world beaters, there was a glimmer of hope this afternoon.

[TF_MICK THE BOOKIE]

Brilliant result.A bit anxious near the end,but we have got there.Yes i thought our John had a good game,and all the players were up for it.Matt Upson,Ashley Cole,and Millner all had above average games imo.Indeed every man played his heart out,but and there is always a but with me i am afraid,Wayne just looks a yard short,and his touch seems to have desserted him.He is obviously out of sorts,and could still be carrying a niggle in that ankle.Lets hope the break can give him the time he needs to improve his fitness levels….WELL DONE ENGLAND…MTB. ~clap ~clap ~clap ~clap ~clap ~clap ~clap ~clap ~clap

[TF_wightangler]

Almost like watching a different team! Some real hope there. Maybe the genuine reactions of fans earlier has given them the kick up the arse they needed.
Now the krauts and possibly the argies- you coud’nt make this up!

[TF_Dodge]

England v Germany in the World Cup …..

That has to be THE PERFECT GAME ~clap ~clap ~clap

I think lol

[TF_bremesParticipant]

Caster Rob aint gonna be happy,the Italians have just been bounced out by the czech’s~shh

[TF_caster robParticipant]

Not really Jeff.

I didn’t expect much of them which is probably why I’ve failed to be “gripped” by the tournament as a whole.

Frustrating that even with a very poor side they played some decent stuff when they had to, I can’t imagine many other players scoring the way Quagliarella did in those circumstances.

Worst Italian defence I’ve seen, and I’ve been watching them since the ’60s and the first world Cup that I haven’t had even a small wager on them.

I backed the Argies this time.

Have to say I’m glad NZ didn’t qualify, they looked like they should have been in All Black.

[TF_bremesParticipant]

Agreed Rob,what a superb goal,they were very poor at the back.

[TF_caster robParticipant]

Have to hope it livens up and gets a bit more exciting when the knock-outs start.

[TF_proper tidal boy]

HERBIE how much longer are you going to protect poor rooney????
if a player aint fit he shouldnt be picked end of. As to a change in performance by the team not before time NOWthey have the perfect next round to build on again maybe this will be our early final???debt interest building very nicely??

[TF_Swimfeeder]

The Italians were crap last time round and cheated the French in the final IMO, I thoroughly enjoyed watching them get humbled this afternoon, I can understand why you admire them Rob…….they are nearly as cynical as you ha ha.

Cappello has his “team back” and it is no coincidence he changed HIS ways to achieve this, he knows his man management was not working and changed before it was too late, I did not realise he was an avid reader of my posts, I must admit, I admire him for that, and can offer some more advice ……keep reading my posts Fabio!!!!

[TF_caster robParticipant]

I strongly refute that Bob.

They’re nowhere near my level!

Still, all the decisions went their way, just like in 2002.

brian rooney doesnt pick the team sir capello does and the country would be devistated if roons didnt play even though he,s only 60% fit he,s still 100% better than heskey~shh

[TF_Dodge]

Beckenbauer bloke has had another dig at England ~sick ~sick ~sick i think thems Germans are shit scared ! ~clap ~clap ~clap lmfbo

As a football manager myself, at a lower level I might add, I feel that the way to make Rooney perform against the Germans is to put him on the bench for the first 45mins.
Play Crouch and Defoe to start and by half time, Shrek will be champing at the bit to get on. I would also drop fat Frank as he hasn’t performed at all. Play Joe Cole left, Milner right, Gerrard front and Barry back of midfield diamond and get stuck right in. Cmon England !!

[TF_Dodge]

Rooney is due a good un , keep the faith one goal from him will make all the difference. We deffo dont want a big lanky plank up front reverting back to route one lol

I don’t think anyone from the team that started against Slovenia should be dropped, they all preformed well enough to keep there place including Rooney he may not be at his best but he’s still dangerous.

[con2302Participant]

Don’t get me wrong Mark. I rate Rooney very highly and would have started with him in the previous matches.I just don’t think he looks fully fit and I think 45mins would be enough. The second 45 would be better because he plays with his heart on his sleeve and sitting on the bench winds him up.
No one has disagreed with dropping fat Frank though !
