France are the most boring team to watch at this world cup. A manager of exquisite uselessness.

Why was the original offer withdrawn? Cos of his fluting around playing "hardball"? I may have missed something in this squalid little story along the way I think.

Just goes to show that international football isnt all that bad...

What are you on about? I thought all decisions bar Pope's second yelow were justifiable. You say mistimging, I say stupidly reckless. Thought it was a good game to watch - hapless fouling and much "ma-ma-mee-a"-ing. Fair balls to them Yanks for getting a result - looked the more dangerous team for even the last 20 I thought, even with 9 men.

At the risk of shielding myself in cliché, know your football sonny.

Didnt download but is that him grabbing VB balls? Was interested to know what VB said to him after when I saw it on telly.

I'd forgotten how much he got on my t*** because he'd been out of the news for a whole month nearly. Maybe he was pissed that the WC was eating his column inches - it's obviously a conspiracy against Chelsea. Anyway, is it me dreaming again or didn't he say the same thing last year and it was shown to be BS?

England don't have the players. But they certainly neither have the manager. Put Beenhacker in charge and you'd see a 10% improvement straight away (which is a lot at that level of football IMO).

Depends on what your perception of an idiot is.

Here's to a high profile disastrouis career in management and coaching. No humiliation is too much for the prick.

Football fandom at major championships is all about being gloriously lowest common denominator. The spitfires and helmets are hilarious, and along with what was dropped on Dresden in 45, it's the only language the Krauts understand.

I like the World War Two songs, it's the songs about the Malayan Emergency of 1948 that irk me. Forget about it, lads! And why do they continually drag up the old chestnut that is the siege of Lucknow in 1857? It's ancient history, give it a bloody rest, along with your hateful ditties about seizing the Cape Of Good Hope in 1806 and the abortive invasion of Spanish South America in the same blasted year.

I only fight on internet forums.

Sweden-Paraguay, Sweden-T&T, Brazil-Croatia and hopefully Argentina - Serbia-M.

I am heading out on Friday with tickets for 3 (and hopefully one more) matches.

I won't bother. But someone make sure to tell me when the Xabi one is on.....

Everyone is a sell out, to be fair.

I don't think its at all an over reaction to say that it's crap and that it's to be hoped we dont see him doing it again - at least not in a Liverpool shirt.

Jimmy Traoré will go to Monaco. Bordeaux are offering 1m? for Bruno Cheyrou. What does this mean? (the EWL 2 bit): Thanks Dus

Whats the story with Ribery's face? Was it scarring or a bad TV picture?
