The unofficial World Cup Thread,

[gaelic cowboy]

I have a theory here that needs developing but bear with me here

1 Premier league is much played at a much faster pace than international football.

2 The other worldclass foreign players in the league enhance the english players giving them the ability to excell at this fast game.

So therefore it is not that the top english players are bad but there playing a differant style.

agree/disagree yes/no

The League both domestic and champions league is too long and ye played friendlies before ye left for south africa, there were men who showed up well but stayed at home.

Yer all missing Rio and Becks

Oh and I almost forgot it doesnt help when you play friendlies beofore a tournament to try players your squad should be settled at that stage

Basically Capello is an eejit he is as much a spoofer as Sven was before him and sadly the players are gone soft they have no bulldog spirit like Paul Ince who wear a bandage on his head to play on

I fear the plane awaits England, unless they destroy Slovenia the cloud will hang over the squad and get beat in next round.
