So we're probably up against Germany in the last 16. Oh dear.

germany havent played that well, their side isnt as strong as previous. im more worried about a possible match with argentina, they are on fire

1st half was awesome, and milner had a phenominal game

I'd say following that we excel at mediocrity, but the USA beat us in the group, so we can only aspire to be mediocre now.

Flight home next week eh!
Sideways yo!

I hope that Germany and Ghana Draw and Serbia win. That way we play Serbia as they will top the group and out the Germans go.

I think it's going to be a rerun of 98 and we play Argentina in the Quarter Final

I don't know if they would.

This will have given England confidence and winning the next game will boost them further.

I think that Rooney needs dropping. He is not right and he couldn't score in a brothel at the moment.

I would play Crouch & Defoe up front and play the diamond midfield formation as they suggested may happen today.

That way Gerrard can play in his natural position.

Im GLAD we're playing Germany and possibly the Argies, England players will be up for the games as there the 2 teams we really just carnt loose to and i dont think the argies will tare us a apart there good up front but suspect at the back i think it would be an open game though and good to watch.

Id be a bit worried with complicency if we got ghana or the ozzies they've proven they carnt get out of bed when playing sh!t teams like Algeria.

We didnt play that bad in the second half we had 2 very good chances and should have put at least one away. But obviously towards the end its gonna be a backs agianst the wall job regardless of who your playing if your only 1-0 up.

Rooney should be dropped hes playing cr@p and Glen Johnsen is an absolute muppet carnt tackle to save his life.
