  1. still think england need to hold onto the ball better
  2. looking at Argentina - so much talent Aimar, Messi, Tevez, Riquelme, Saviola YIKES and there's more I'm hoping with Rafa at the helm we can start getting some of that talent while its young and affordable
  3. unbelievable goal -- poor mexico
  4. hope rafa is looking at these mexican wide players 100mph or what
  5. I was impressed by Ballacks ability to stay back - previously I saw him as the German Lampard - but hes more intelligent and has a better range of passing - indeed it will be interesting to see Ballack at Chelsea - will he have Makele behind him - or will he share a midfield with Lampard ? either way I think Lampard will improve as a player by learning from Ballack - it could even get to the point where Lampard learns to work with Gerrard - summary: watching the German midfield there is lots there for Gerrard and Lampard to learn from -- maybe even Alonso and Gerrard to learn from - they balance their runs very well
  6. seems odd saying that of a german team
  7. its a shame there isnt pennant there as well ... I presume we are not losing KromKamp, but I have heard rumours that he's unsettled
  8. yeah I was hoping for something like that if we are to play 442
  9. this is SO the best most accurate statement re Sven and England Oddly enough I see similarities between England and Liverpool Gerrard and Lampard = Gerrard and Alonso - both need a holding player so the CM=3 Crouch for England and Liverpool gets isolated = Crouch needs someone up close to him attacking midfielder or fellow striker Solution a midfield 5 but to do that you either leave crouch isolated or you sacrifice a defender, I would go for the latter and play 352
  10. ---------------Crouch ----Rooney-------------Gerrard Cole ----------Carrick------------Lennon Cole-------Terry------Ferdi'------Carra' thats the best england ATM IMHO BTW with a name like Crouch is Peter the new Little John ?
  11. Liverpool 2 - T&T 0 Crouchino, Steven-Kaka-Gerrard
  12. its the manager, had england a decent manager they would be in with a shout
  13. thats 1 owens missed 1 crouch has missed and 2 lampard's missed
  14. shock horror the england number 8 in the box ball at his feet and he lets it bounce off him
  15. T&T are throwing bodies at everything - this should be a test of England inventiveness

    Alves

    reminds me of Simi ( or what ever his name was ) a youth player on our books, probably at crewe now
  17. tha's the UK and Europe covered, but who are our South American scouts ? and what about Africa ?

    Alves

    Kuyt and Alves would be fine, Pennant ( paid for by Sales ) would make it a good transfer window the other players I assume have already been paid for and budgeted for ie Paletta, Gonzales, and Aurelio
  19. Hope they get the draw or win they deserver, one thing is for sure teams that play with pride are a joy to watch
  20. get well soon Djibs Rafa will sign a cup tied striker in Jan and you'll be off to another CL final
  21. that's why I dont think his recovery will be as quick this time 1 no world cup 2 liverpool dont want him 3 he can't play for his dream team in france to be honest Djibril is emotionally driven and the circumstances around him will not help him Anyway this time I would have him working on all his ball skills and positioning from Aug/Sept so he comes back better than before
  22. I thought that too -- I can only hope he recovers well and this time he learns while not playing so he can come back better just as carra did
