Good to see Giovani dos Santos. A major prospect at Barcelona, would've liked him to have done well at Spurs.

Dont think anyone in their right mind thinks we'll do much in South Africa, it's all hype and bravado.

mexico can't defend for toffee.

Unfortunately neither can England with this line-up.

WAS a major prospect at barca, the fact he went on loan to ipswich shows he hasnt developed as well as first was expected

It was alright nothing special. Tbh I was more concerned about the pitch than the actual game. Looked alright to me.

Yeah all I could think about was, I'll be behind that goal on Saturday!!! :D

Ball seemed to roll fine on that pitch, didn't look great but play wise it seemed fine.

He did look very poor didn't he.

Why do we keep giving Defoe a chance, I think he would struggle to get into Scotlands side. Huddleston and Carrick are not good enough either, in fact our midfield were very poor except for out wide, but down the middle teams are going to destroy us in the middle unless we pack it.
Rooney upfront on his own is the best option for me.

Same as that, used to have same sort of feelings for England as I do for Swindon, but rapidly losing interest. Cant exactly put a finger on why but partly due to renewed interest in town and partly due to feeling completely disenchanted with the premiershit. Competely forgot game was on last night, and when I was reminded, wqasnt the slightest bit interested.

Same goes for champions league and the fa cup final.

I also noticed there was barely any mention of either of these games on here, so maybe the feelings are mutual.

Its funny, as a kid the fa cup final was the massive game of the year.

I feel the same, Jimmy.

I forgot the game was on last night aswell, but I did put the 2nd half on the ITV player on my laptop, but paid no attention to it really.
I'm hoping my enthusiasm picks up when the World Cup actually starts.
Quite a few big flags have gone up around near me, which looks kinda shit but I quite like it :)
