Germany will take that team apart IMO. Roll on Sunday.

Stinicker · 23-06-2010 05:03PM

How I look forward to Germany thrashing this more than useless English team, I think the Germans will destroy them about 4 or 5 nil. Ireland would have beaten England well today had we met them and it was good enough for Slovenia who were happy enough to be beaten as the Americans and Algerians played a stalemate.

I am glad America scored not only because it allows Germany to thrash England :pac: but it is also knocked out those hapless Slovenians who could have defeated this english team if they wanted to, Donovan wrecked them in injury time and it suits them right.

Greyfox · 23-06-2010 05:04PM

Fingers crossed we get an England v Germany tie!

Great to see the USA through instead of Slovena, was able to watch both games at the same time, priceless looking at the Slovenia team knowing they were not yet aware of the USA goal

prinz · 23-06-2010 05:05PM

That said Germany better get their act together tonight.

Germany need to beat (not draw with) Ghana, don't get too cocky yet. Its been an "interesting" world cup, it could get more interesting yet!

Jaysus christ, is anyone watching the bbc coverage?

The combination of alan shearer & alan hansen's boring mono-tone voices & stone faced expressions makes me appreciative of rte's panel.

And they're complimenting england as if they just played a great game??:D:rolleyes:

Yeah they way they went in all shaking hands with the English team and smiling, imagine the facepalm in the dressing room when they were told Donovan scored!

The usual manic depressive episodes of support tbh. It's amazing what a goal against a terrible team will do to people

PeterIanStaker · 23-06-2010 05:15PM

I dont think Germany will beat them 5-0, 2 or 3 - 0 is more realistic a margin.

In fairness,they fully deserved to based on the performances in the group.

Is it my imagination or is dunphy talking out his hole again? Defoe & Millner didn't have a good game...??? whats he talking about?

In all fairness defoe defoe played well & Millner ran the legs off himself. I'd agree theres something up with rooney, how many times do you see him off target in the penalty area.

23-06-2010 05:22PM

Ah good! the red & white vuvuzelas are still in demand.

"and it's.................(pause;check notes).....LANDON DONOVAN!!"

Great one on RTE yesterday too...

RTE debating the effects of Sony Playstation on the number of kids playing football on the streets in Europe compared to South America.

Bill : "So Ossie, is it likely that we will see a huge number of talented South Americans coming through for the forseeable future?"

Ossie : "Yes"

Giles : "........ as long as they stay poor"

Dunphy is right. I hear that the scum on BBC were chatting up the team as usual. They can never critiscise themselves. They had a poor game.

Millner was useless. Normally he's grand for his club but for England he was shíte. He was petrified and was tiring himself out and not getting anything out of it. He didn't make a good pass except for the goal.

Defoe was probably their best player. Rooney was useless tonight again. Lampard and Gerrard just don't work and it remains that Capello is afraid to leave out one of those two BIG names out of the team. They're "world class" so they must be in the team. :rolleyes:

Dunphy is right and isn't afraid to speak his mind compared to that tripe on the BBC.

A sexist Johnny Giles being critical of Gabby Logan's interviewing technique!

I think the pundits on bbc are coached / financially encouraged to big up the england team,you can almost see them cringe sometimes when they begin to over the top praise the team

I saw a documentary once about the time Gilesy, Jack Charlton and Mick McCarthy were coaching a women's team in Italy. It was shown a lot, you must have seen it.

Dunphy said defoe didn't have a good game? He's talking utter sh!te. He scored the winner & was probably the most dangerous player in the england side today. I still think millner although visibly nervous put in a huge effort IMO.

Agree with you on the overly-positive bbc reaction to the game. Cringe-worthy, i can imagine as soon as the post-game coverage went off air they probably all had a good laugh & agreed england are fcuked.
