England vs Trinidad & Tabago *SPOILERS*
Posted by madotter
I personally think england have looked worse than they did in 98 :D Dunno about 2002, can't remember that so much (which is odd). We were good in 98. This style of attacking football is crap - only made up for by good strikes from gerrard. I am dissapointed that lampard is played to the detriment of gerrard though 
I would like to see carrick played instead of lampard but it isn't going to happen ever. Everyone likes lampard for some reason - all he does is shoot, and most of the time that is @#$%& and wasteful too - in fact if you take this world cup, all of the time 
).
I guess we will see just how crap to watch / boring this style of play is when they play sweden.
On a side note, in teams of yesteryear, mcmanaman and fowler should have definately played, but since the media didn't particularly like them, they never got much of a chance really Fowler would still be good now actually - he doesn't have the legs, but he would have scored a load against paraguay and t&t, as we were attacking loads. In fact as long as you have owen or defoe or someone fast with him, it is okay he doesn't have the legs anymore. But bleh, managers and media pick the team, so it will never happen, and he will definately be too old before long anyway.

H E L L O I agree, Mcmanaman was very overrated, an above average player for me and nothing else

Mcmanaman was good, whatever you happen to say. He was amazing for liverpool. If only he hadn't gone to real madrid.

H E L L O Crouch trying to hit the ball with anything below his neck is just laughable
What a lovely volley, hard to hit with your shin even if you were really trying :p

Er you say fowler was crap but then you say maybe he should have been taken to the world cup? :S Okay :S
I don't see how either of them are overated - the press and media don't like either of them and nor do many football fans, so how you can say they are overated is a bit beyond me. Mcmanaman isn't what he used to be anymore, but in his liverpool days was amazing. He even managed it when he actually got picked for the real madrid side - scoring a great goal in the champions league final. Fowler is also past his best, but for both of them, the main thing they have lost is their pace, stamina and fitness - this is less of an effect for fowler, because of where he plays. Both could have done really well with there careers and had the talent to do much more than what happened - injury, bad transfer moves and unfavourability by media and england managers has stopped that for both of them really.
I don't see how you can talk either gui. Ronaldo is hardly "on top of his game". In fact, I'd say he's even worse than mcsheffrey at the moment, and that takes some beating.

H E L L O ...but as the World Cup progresses so will he
that if Brazil keep going in the WC

we're set for Italy or Czech Republic in the first game of next round, yay
I honestly believe this is the best World Cup dating back to 1986, if not further more (I don't recall 86 as I only watched Brazil's games on a rerun ), the overall level is amazing and is very promising :D

If England win their group they've got an amazing draw, amusing they keep going to the Final! 
Which is possible, because our toughest opposition between the group stages and the semi-finals are Holland. That's no disrespect to the Dutch BTW, it just means we'd avoid the likes of Italy, Czech Republic, Argentina and Spain right the way through until the final 4.
P.S. I know Brazil isn't in that list, sorry Gui but this year ain't your year

Er if you bothered to read what I said, I said he was at his best for liverpool and rarely got a chance for real madrid, meaning his confidence and motivation dropped. Injury didn't help either.
