Why is it a B international? Is it a way of paying Belarus f*ck all?

I've wasted good money to go and see that lot...where is the benefit in seeing David James play for England ? Surely Green and Carson should have been given one half each.

 

I can see many reasons for leaving at half time on that bench...

[Stevie H]

walcott doesn't even get his first cap if it's a b international. why not just call it a f***ing friendly?

[Crazy Horse]

Because Sven doesn't like to give caps away cheaply...

[Guest JamesA]

Walcott's only going to play if his mum let's him stay out late for the night anyway. Trouble is, it's a school night.

[Stevie H]

chris powell has one.

[Kahnee]

walcott doesn't even get his first cap if it's a b international. why not just call it a f***ing friendly?

 

doesn't even make the starting line-up either, yet he's ready for the world cup

[Maldini]

because Arsenal owe 2m or something if he does

You're probably right

[Gravy]

Well, I'm taking the boys to see it and they're well chuffed - Carra, Crouch and Owen playing. Looking forward to it.

[Extraordinary Swindle]

How bad are Belarus? Reason for asking are the generous half-time/full-time odds on offer. With James starting in goal anything is possible.

 

Half-Time/Full-Time	   
England B / England B 	4 - 5
England B / Draw 	20 - 1
England B / Belarus 	80 - 1
Draw / England B 	11 - 4
Draw / Draw 		11 - 2
Draw / Belarus 		20 - 1
Belarus / England B 	22 - 1
Belarus / Draw 	22 - 1
Belarus / Belarus 	20 - 1

1-0 Jenas

 

Pretty dull game so far. Engerland's midfield has been appalling, may as well not be there. Owen has been poor, seemingly not wanting to pass to Crouch early on. Made a few good runs but created nothing for himself, waiting to be handed it on a plate. Fairly standard Owen-on-way-back-from-injury.

 

Crouch has been OK, one of, if not our best player, had a goal disallowed but both him and Owen were offside.

 

Goal came after Owen headed onto the bar (he was offside) from a free kick and Jenas headed into the empty net. Other than that Jenas has been poor, a disgraceful decision not to pass to Owen when he would have had a 1-2-1, instead he chose to try and beat three men and was lucky to get given a foul. Carrick has also had a shocker.

 

Carra's has cleaned up well, but the defence has not been troubled, whenever we have been troubled, it's been Cole that is the weak spot.

 

Lennon's caused them trouble, but quite a high proportion of poor crosses.

[Spike]

1-0 Jenas

Carra's has cleaned up well, but the defence has not been troubled, whenever we have been troubled, it's been Cole that is the weak spot.

 

Carra is playing RB and CB as Hargreaves has no idea how to play RB - the amount of times he's been pulled in has been laughable. Give him a f***ing b******ing Carra lad

 

that's Carson in the squad then

[Benitez]

Crouch and Lennon the only bright points of a dull first half.

 

And how the fec did the lino not spot the offside for the goal, it was blatant

 

DOH! 1-1 now.

 

Green hurt himself, and the Belarus man scores into an open goal.

 

Carson may get a game at this rate. Green doesn't look good 'ere

Poor Green, Carson may even get to go to the World Cup, Green's injury looks bad

[Benitez]

And 'ere he comes.

 

And if this is as bad as it looks - Scott Carson will also be going to the world cup.

[BDB]

how bizarre was that from green, the belarus guy straight away was thinking goal, and took it.

[Gomez]

Carra is playing RB and CB as Hargreaves has no idea how to play RB - the amount of times he's been pulled in has been laughable. Give him a f***ing b******ing Carra lad

 

 

It's not his fault. He is not a RB.

 

@ Green.

Or at least was at first, looks really bad. Feel guilty now.

 

Still, the goals was funny.

 

Can't see why he was going to the WC anyway to be honest.

 

Looks like Carson might go to the WC, make that 10 Kev.

[madskilz]

Crouch turning up the style

[LFCNeil90]

wonderful skill there by Crouch!

 

Shame for green though

[Guest JV]

Hope Carson goes to the WC, should of been going anyway.

 

Jenas is so fvcking s***!

[LFCNeil90]

Blatant handball in the Belarus box there

 

hargreaves is fun to watch as a neutral

[Gomez]

Woeful reffing.

 

That Belarus player caught that ball in the area.

[madskilz]

Carson going to the World Cup, Green has ruptured his groin

[Gomez]

Green has ruptured his groin.

 

Is Carson the only reserve keeper?
