England are too slow and ponderous when they get the ball at the back. Needed to be sharper or they're going home. (Dunno why Johnson came inside at the goal. :confused:)

And the Uruguay star in the premier league destroys another overrated England, that sounds once again a early goodbye but yea not surprised, its not the first time, and it's not a competitive team, i guess every non England fan can see that. Sorry to say, but it's nothing i saw.... :rolleyes:
2 goals from Suarez.... England OUT!?
Lol, that was a massively edited post Peter.....'not playing bad', 'just the sniper' to that^. ;)
England constantly put themselves under too much pressure with slow play at the back getting closed down and not giving themselves an out. Poor keeper doesn't help either.
Honestly I was expecting Uruguay to win, I was more then sure that they will. To be fair, England deserved a draw atleast, Rooney missed 2 huge chances....
If Italy will won all games and England will do a big game against Costa Rica they can be in the next round :D
Haha i didn't wanna write a new post but my halftime analysis was correct as u saw so i just used same to overwrite as they kept losing anyway ha and well i still say it was nothing what England did, rooney had chances for several games...Quote:

Well italy isn't famous to score many goles haha and Uruguay i dont see weaker than italy, they would have beaten costa Rica with suares playing so i see Uruguay through maybe costa rica cause can't see England beat them,...Quote:

Japan really should have had Greece down by a couple goals.. I think a Shinji Kagawa in off form is better than who they started, too.
Oh well.. glad I haven't bet money on these!!
Sokratis is shutting down everyone he is covering as soon as they get a sniff of goalQuote:

England can still go through - we need Italy to win both their remaining games - margin doesn't matter against Uruguay, but as big as possible against Costa Rica please (Costa Rica are on a +2 goal difference and we are on -2, so in reality we need Italy to beat them by at least a 2 goal margin and for us to do the same). The reasn the margin with Uruguay doesn't matter is that if to get a better goal difference than Costa Rica, it looks like that means we will get a better goal difference than Uruguay. I'm confident of Italy beating Costa Rica, but I just hope they can hold out against Uruguay better than we can. I also want Costa Rica to go through instead of us, if we can't make it through.
I made a good prediction Buffs :D ...Quote:

That would mean costaríca is next round, how cool, but Still way to go, as last game italy Uruguay only one of them could go 6points and it would mean England home now
20 mins for Balottelli to get another yellow, he might make it ;)
10 min left for england
But i say they are out, italy doesnt score twice
Bye England, the surprise isn't England is out, it's costa rica very probably wins the group haha
They could play for a week and not score 2. They're just so slow then they hump it long.:confused: Maybe the water in the hotel has been drugged. ;)
Italy might join spain, if they lose against Uruguay they home as well
And after today's performance i think its Uruguay go trough
All we can hope for now is England to beat Costa Rica, and Costa Rica to lift the trophy... then at least we can say that we were the only country to beat them at this World Cup! They're a good team, but I think it's unlikely that they will get all the way to the final. I think anything from now on, if indeed we can effect anything decent, should be classed as "damage-limitation", although I think the above events are the only way that it would have any effect! :(
Its a strange tournament spain England an maybe italy too home first round..
Well Italy or Uruguay dead certain to go out - either would be a shock normally.Quote:

Benzema also scored right as the ref blew his whistle so it didnt count. He could have at least 2 more goals in that game.Quote:

Costa Rica! What a team, there manager has got to be praised for getting them to play this well. I am not sure if they can keep it up, but they for sure have made it interesting!
Finally, I can not wait for the Uruguay-Italy game, it is going to be awesome!
France won with 5-2, the best game so far from World CUP, so many goals, beautiful one :D
Since I've already proven myself the best predictor on here, by a mile.....
Argentina 3 Iran 0 (I want it to be a draw)
Germany 4 Ghana 1 (I want Ghana to win as long as Germany still lift the cup)
Nigeria 2 Bosnia & Herzegovina 1 (I want Bosnia to win)
No need to argue, these are the final scores. :p
All are wrong :DQuote:

Brasil will leave soon, not against Cameroon but next round finish vs Netherlands o Chile. Hope to see a few messi goals later on, to show ronaldo who is the man
Wonderful messi goal, the crunch time is where the difference is needed
