lol neither.Their both too old and out of shape. I Still cant believe he didnt call up darren bent.This man was fantastic this season.but instead he called up walcott.an unexperienced youth whose yet to play for arsenals senoir team. I wouldve called up darren bent and .....Beattie.That beanstalk(peter crouch) cant even use his size as an advantage when it comes to headers.Thats my Opinion.Good luck England,you need it. Go Brasil.

Personally, I think the Bent brothers will wind up being the best siblings in English football over the next 5-10 years. Darren and Marcus both show amazing skill, pace and finishing technique. If they were with higher-profile clubs, there would be much more buzz about them.

YES TO BOTH ,I HAVE A PAL WHO PLAY'S FOR THEM, BUT I THINK THEY ARE BETTER THAN MOTHERWELL AND DUNFERMLINE,THEY PLAY GOOD PASSING GAME AND TRY TO PLAY AGAINST OLD FIRM,THEY SHOULD BE MID TABLE AND WITH LUCK COULD GET A TOP SIX PLACE.

The stadium is not down to them but the farce of getting a manager is.I fear that now they have had their nose bloodied by big phil they will take the cowards way out and go for Mclaren which will be a disaster.I believe they where right to go for Big phil as his record speaks for itself (which knowing our luck will result in Portugal kicking us out of another major cup).Now he has turned us down we should go for O'Neill or Big Sam at Bolton as these two have a bit of passion about them.McLaren would just be a FA puppet and would lead England once again into the wilderness.F.A IF YOU CAN DO NOTHING ELSE RIGHT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT APOINT ANOTHER NO-MARK MANAGER.GET SOMEONE WITH PASSION.

Gunner 4 Life!\n\nAll that talk about not having enough Englishmen in the team is a load of crap. Who cares! As Wenger said, why take a Britisher in the team if there's a 'foreigner' who can play better than him! No thanks!\n\nChelsea have won this year, but let's see how long they can keep it up... Losing to Fulham. HAHAHA! way to go Chelsuck!\n\nGO GUNNERS!

I watched MOTD 2 on Sunday, and was curious why only the black Spurs players were the one who were enraged.\n\nHaving done some research on the internet message boards, it is alleged that John Terry told Ledley King to 'Shut up you lippy black monkey' before getting sent off on Sunday. This would explain the following: \n\nWhy King went mad, when normally he is mild tempered and the \nincident appeared harmless \n\nWhy Chimbonda went berserk and had to be physically restrained \n\nWhy Zakora went mad also \n\nWhy Drogba, who was there and always gets involved, did nothing \n\nWhy Terry calmly walked away expecting to be sent off for what \nappeared on TV to be nothing \n\nTerry was accused by Eto of making racist comments in the \nBarcelona game last year. \n\nApparently a Spurs player has leaked this, but Chelsea are \nworking overtime to keep it quiet \n\nA$hl€y Col€ has said that Poll told him the lack of discipline \nby Chelsea was out of order and Chelsea are trying to discredit \nPoll, but he cannot possibly come out and say what Terry did as he is the England captain, preferring to say he was sent off for 'ungentlemanly conduct'. \n\nIF this story is true, it will be massive and I can't believe \nthe press haven't got hold of it yet. Chelsea must be weighing \njournalists out left, right and centre.

Funnily enough, I've become quite immune to Pleat. (His pronounciations used to drive me insane, but now I find them quite amusing. Current Pleat fave: Gael Clichy pronounced as Gael Cliché.)\n\nI always remember that when Ginola and Gillespie played on the flanks at Newcastle, Pleat used to pronounce their names as (hard 'G') Ginola and (soft 'G') Gillespie. Classic.\n\nMy current bête noire is Ian Wright on the beeb. He pouts and sulks like a petulant school kid, and offers no insight what-so-ever. (Lee Dixon looked positively embarrassed by him last night.) He kept going on about how "boring" England were against Hungary - which is useful.\n\n"Bring on Lennon," Wright said.\n\nTo which Dixon replied: "But that would mean taking off Beckham, and he's having a great game."\n\n"Bring him on anyway," says Wrighty. (Where the f*** is Sven supposed to put him, in goal?)

im very glad he decided to buy chelsea as a yid i think we have a great crop of english youth running through the spine of the side and with a couple of imports in davids and berbatov should us at least bring in 1 cup if not a couple, exciting times ahead down the lane and big marty has done fantastic, when roman gets bored he could leave chelsea right innit and i will laugh hard at arnesson and kenyon who jumped on board of the money train.\nbest thing swp could do is move, a great waste of talent and only plays 15min every week!! jammin should stay at the lane, good back up player.roll on saturday.

Two Arsenal players fell bumped into each other and one got up straight away, the referee checked the other one was ok... If you're going to roll around on the floor hoping the game gets stopped, you are taking a chance. I'm not sure Arsene Wenger was behaving like a girl, or even if we should say that the players were behaving like typical continental players. Is it traditional that managers have the same beginning to their name as the club? Or just clubs that begin with Arse? I suppose Totti could be manager of Tottenham, but I can't think of any more at the moment.

For several reasons throughout the match. However, I do agree that they were particularly and overtly critical of England at the end of the match (Especially Balboa. Let me get this out of the way; my favorite ESPN announcers are Shep Messing and Tommy Smyth. The other announcers can be ignored completely. Especially the World Cup "analysts" Wynalda and company.) \nFirst of all, England did not finish on so many chances. They had outshot Trinidad and Tobago by over 10-15 shots and yet they couldn't score until the winding minutes of the match. I mean, how many chances can you ask for really? And while you can say that Hislop has been playing great, if you get very close on goal, you should be able to finish it against any goalie if you are a contender for the World Cup trophy. So, in part, the expectations are higher for England than they are for Sweden, who did tie against T&T as well, but they should've finished the ball. \nSecond, English defense was very disorganized at times (while the announcers did not really address this, the fact that this happenned justified that they were unimpressed by England..but up to a point.) Glen and John connected way too much for T&T, something that shouldn't have happenned, considering that Trinidad had 10 men behind the ball on nearly every single possession. This showed how weak England can be in front of a team that counterattacks.\nHowever, while these do stand out as disappointing qualities of England's play that shone through, I do not think Balboa's disappointment at the end of the day is justified if the end is taken into light and for various reasons. England should be commended on their excellent passing (Beckham always connected), their penetration of an overcommitted defense, and because they did what mattered in the end, showing that they can finish if under pressure. I mean just compare the game to the game Sweden had and Sweden's a powerhouse as well. The only reason England could not score was because the 10 man T&T defense was always there on corners, free kicks, and set pieces which disrupted where the majority of their plays come from. The other chances off just individual strikes is impressive considering they typically score off of passes from set pieces. I thought it was brilliant that Beckham managed to create a set piece situation out of a strike on his cross to Crouch. Therefore, I do think the fact that ESPN2 did not come out impressed that England was able to come away from T&T, a side that shut out powerhouse Sweden as well, is too harsh and shows the sidedness of their commentators. I mean in the Sweden game their commentator stated that Italy would draw against USA. If one goes off of the way the US played, I think those are very ambitious expectations....and yet the others believe the US could get through round 1 still and yet not impressed with England at all? Then, how do you look positively at the US at all. This is bogus. Down with Balboa and company. Not good announcing at all there. England should not have been played down as they were. Good job to them...they at least will get rewarded justly while the US will be shutout soon.

Hi Andy!!!!\n\nBRING HIM BACK!!!!!!!! During the World Cup I saw this saying that I felt was very fitting.... IN GUUS WE TRUST!!! What he did for Australian Soccer was incredible.\n\nWish Adelaide United luck for tonight... I'm going to the game against Victory!!!! ROMARIO & KOSMINA VS. MUSCAT!!!!\n\nJust got home from the game... What a joke!!!!!! Bajic got red carded in the 13th minute for kicking Fred downstairs!!! That was a shocking game for United. I feel so sorry for Romario... he's trying so hard to score!!! AND will Veart ever retire - I'll pay his pention if I have to!!

Crouch, a world class player, he reminds me of Ian Rush without Rush's game skills or game co-ordination\n\nAre we sending a 'modern' england team to germany or are we going back to the wimbledon FC stylee of play (late 80's early 90's), if crouch goes wer'e going down the winbledon fc route, we'll def. be on the first flight home (best get in touch with easyjet/ryanair's early priority booking line)

Ya you are definitely right because on paper England team is most powerful team and most likely candidate for being champion so any lover can except good performance from them but they not able to perform well during the match so it is disappointment for any lover, So dont worry and have faith in Beckham and gang and hope for the best...

Liverpool aren't giving their strikers sufficient support and coverage. Stevie and Alonso need to send better balls to Crouch and Kuyt. The play between Kuyt and Crouch is fantastic though. Remember the time they were up against six in Arsenal's match against them? Crouch still managed to get the ball through to Kuyt.\n\nCrouch is really experienced, mind you, and Benitez should be taking advantage of that.\n\nAnd one more thing, Gerrard may be gd with his long range shots, but it's a real spoiler for the team when everyone's passed the ball around well and then he blasts it just over the frame of the goalpost.\n\nAt least that's what I think.

hahaha... glory glory manchester united... but pity them though... they played quite well, only a few lapse of concentration... cost them dearly...\n\nanyhow, i don;t really care about wigan... but i certainly am looking forward to liverpool crashing out of champions league and win nothing this year... and better still, arsenal crashing out of the champs league, and finishing poorly in premiership... no ARSEnal in champs league next year, wohooo
