one of the best strikers in the world in rooney

one of the best attacking midfielders in the world in lampard
one of the best left backs in the world in cole
one of the best right backs in the world in johnson
some of the best center backs in the world in rio and terry
all that talent but does it make a team?

Just saying someone is one of the best in the world means nothing in the sporting world. World cup tournaments are where you prove such things.

We should have a SCM game some time; Irish Vs English posters.
The Irish would obviously have two massive advantages - Ross in nets, and me.
We'd fucking rape you lot.

Yeah and you can have all the second rate players we dont want but who have at one time or another drunk a pint of the black stuff.

I'd be in goal ahead of Rosco tbf. He's tiny compared to me.

It was much to do with the fact that I'd only just recovered from a back operation and shouldn't have been running let alone playing footie. But let him believe that. Pace is fine and he has plenty of it, but he also had the advantage that he's at least 12 years my junior. If it came down to some physicality on a smaller pitch, I would be the victor! Plus I'm now fully recovered from the back problems.
And if we started losing, we'd just start tearing the stadium apart and hurling missiles at you1

getting the thread back on track, spain were perpetually fucking up when come to the crunch despite the sea of talent and options at their disposal but they FINALLY won a major international cup. if they could do it then england can as well.
Certainly England *can*. If Brazil or Spain have a bad day somewhere along the line and get knocked out, England are one of the few teams who could take advantage and go all the way. The fact that they're not favourites doesn't put them out of the running by any means.

basically if everyone plays to the level they 'can' then england have a chance even against the likes of spain and brazil. also there are players like cashly and johnson and gerrard who have been in and out of their teams due to injury meaning come the they will be relatively fresh.

He's won one game in 6 versus the proper top nations.
Germany WIN
Holland DRAW
Brazil DRAW
France LOSS
Spain LOSS
Czech DRAW
We're no where near as good as Spain. And Brazil always perform. We'll be Semi finalists at best and the first time we face a top 5 side we will shit out.

well despite my new rep I'm ever the optimist, and once it reaches the knock out phase then anything is possible, look at liverpool on the road to instanbul.

Certainly England *can*. If Brazil or Spain have a bad day somewhere along the line and get knocked out, England are one of the few teams who could take advantage and go all the way. The fact that they're not favourites doesn't put them out of the running by any means.

well despite my new rep I'm ever the optimist, and once it reaches the knock out phase then anything is possible, look at liverpool on the road to instanbul.
basically if everyone plays to the level they 'can' then england have a chance even against the likes of spain and brazil. also there are players like cashly and johnson and gerrard who have been in and out of their teams due to injury meaning come the they will be relatively fresh.

He's won one game in 6 versus the proper top nations.
Germany WIN
Holland DRAW
Brazil DRAW
France LOSS
Spain LOSS
Czech DRAW
We're no where near as good as Spain. And Brazil always perform. We'll be Semi finalists at best and the first time we face a top 5 side we will shit out.

Same as ever, a few iconic pictures/moments, a fantastic performance against a shite team that will make (stupid) people believe we will win it, play our hearts out against a proper footballing side, maybe get a bloke sent off, maybe one of the players will end up bleeding from the head, maybe the opposition will 'cheat' or the ref will miss something he should have seen.
It's the same old shite.
England should just enjoy it for what it is, a good footballing side, with a good manager who will take us to about the quarters, possibly semi with a nailbiting final game.
