Can't wait for England to beat Costa Rica in a few days time and prove how much dumb random luck is involved in football. England will have been better than all 3 teams yet they don't qualify for the next round and Costa Rica already have.

henry is right about pirlo, and the way england handled him compared to how costa rica did it today.

pirlo is the italian xavi--he's great, but he's slower; he needs more time and space to get into his game.

if xavi's sleepless in seattle, then pirlo's, like, you've got mail.

Yeah, when they say there's a lack of quality in our match in terms of personnel - and they cite Pirlo and Suarez - then.. how do you explain this Costa Rica team?

Joel Campell is the greatest player of his generation

I cant believe after all these tournaments we never learn to press teams, its disgusting how much space and time we give people.

Henry has been exceptional as a pundit.

This is what happens when you follow SkySports for your footy.

I said it months ago. The biggest liability for this team is Pirlo. But with Verratti next to him it takes the pressure off of him like in the England game. Prandelli fucked this game up big time. He tore up the good midfield from the last game and i don't know what he said at half time because instead of staying compused and remembering that there was 45 minutes left, we panicked, which is what I never expect from an Italian side.

The Liverpool players should just go home now. Why waste your time under this owl cunts stewardship? He's exactly the same as when he was our manager. An under achieving waste of fucking time. Fuck off Hodgson, you arse.
 
British football is down again. Flop in the CL. And an even bigger flop at the world cup. EPL GAF IS DEAD.

How did British football flop in the CL? We had as many teams as you guys in the Quarter Finals and both had one team in the Semi Finals where we were beaten by the better teams? Troll better Blablurn.

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much

There's not only a lack of quality there is also a lack of organisation and discipline.

The second Suarez goal is probably the most embarrassing goal of the tournament so far (not including keeper errors), a side that is well-drilled should never concede that kind of goal. We don't do the basics right and until we do it doesn't matter how much time Roy spends training Welbeck to be a LW, Sterling a CAM, Gerrard a DM etc.

Make the team solid first and go from there, that's what Chile, Mexico, Costa Rica etc have done.
