Alph Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Congratulations on his first win in football since fish learned to swim. Can't believe Wales snatched him from Sheffield United. That compensation would of made the Yorkshire folk feel a bit better eh? But anyway, 3 questions. 1) If Gary Speed is linked with us when Cloughs contract expires, will you commit suicide or just self harm? 2) Will England win by many? (personally i only ever care when it's against the home nations) 3) Does this "new look" England side stand any better than the "world class players" to go into the last tournament.

Bris Vegas Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 England will cruise against Wales on Tuesday.. I'm predicting 3-0 with Joe Hart rarely tested, and an Ashley Young double before halfitme to set us on our way.. We're turning into a very good counter attacking side.. I guess we can thank Alex Ferguson for that as up top a Rooney Young partnership looks likely to be the future.. With Walcott/A.Johnson/Milner/Lennon etc.. on the wings.. With Barry and Wilshire in the centre it's not too bad.. Wales won't provide a test, as their defence is bleddy awful.. Away from home against the likes of Montenegro, Switzerland and Bulgaria we'll also be fine, playing solid counter attacking football.. The big tests will come when playing the likes of Sweden, Italy, Croatia etc.. Teams that are more difficult to break down, and it will need us to actually keep possession and work teams to find the openings.. We're still lightyears away from the likes of Spain, Germany, Holland and Portugal in Europe (my top 4) and our friendlies give us no indication of how good we are.. No wonder we always flop, when playing the likes of Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica before a world cup campaign.. Was a shame we didn't play Holland in the friendly, as they're currently better than us it would give us a yardstick to improve.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hucknall Ram Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Not a bad starting lineup against Wales. But did anyone see the starting line up been shown on itv? Just shows why itv is so **** when it comes to football coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just shows why itv is so **** when it comes to football coverage. No, what happened? Hate ITV's coverage as much as the football league show. Just gimme Hansen, Dixon maybe a limited touch of Shearer and that bloke who's playing at PP on Thursday. The one the does football focus. Then i'm happy.

GboroRam Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 At least with ITV HD you don't have to watch it like you've smeared vaseline on your glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted September 6, 2011 Author Share Posted September 6, 2011 Oh, God. Now all the ridiculous hyping of Gareth Bale. "remember that performance at the San Siro....." ..... yes, he's made a career out of that and about 3 other games. Very good player... but give it a rest.
