5-1, even heskey scored, 5-1 even heskey scored 2-1, even Kuranyi scored, 2-1 even Kuranyi scored 5 - 1 = qualifier 1 - 2 = pointless friendly indeed but we still qualified for the World Cup regardless of this and achieved a better outcome in the WC, even though England have many so called 'world-class :roll: ' players

It doesn't matter you can only beat what is put in front of you, it was easier but that is how it goes.

the fact it was easy wasnt the point, the fact is we beat you and qualifed ahead of you....yet you got seeded above us - which to me doesnt make sense.
If we'd had the same run as you, we would have made it to the final easily.

I hope there was a certain amount of sarcasm in that DV. If not that's half of england's problem's, looking to others to blame, you fucked yourselves over. Played shit against Sweden, diving Owen wins the game against the argies, play shit in final group game, beat a stage struck danish side, then fail to beat, sorry lose to, 10 man Brazil.

If anyone argues their team is good enough to win the competition then surely the route to get there doesn't matter.
We fucked up. End of. All we can do is hope we qualify for 2008 and try and make amends. If not we have noone to blame but ourselves.

England were crap in that world cup, take off your rosey tinted glasses for a minute. England played alright against the Brasillians, other than that what makes you think that England would have "easily" reached the final? I doubt England would have got out the group had they been placed in with Ireland, Cameroon and Saudi Arabia. That world cup was a lottery due to the climate, no country "easily" qualifies for the final of WC, in any WC tournament.
