Yer joking........aren't ye? D'ye think his tactics/decisions were to have Rooney sent off and Lampard, Gerrard, and Carrager, to miss penalties. Despite Rooney's sending off the game was there to be won on the penalty shoot-out, d'ye think Sven had anything to do with 3 missed penalties? 155409[/snapback] So a shit world cup squad selection, shit team selections, shit tactics, shit formation, shit substitutions, had nothing to to do with Sven Goran Eriksson ? Yeah right. 155419[/snapback] C'mon man, everything you say had everything to do with stupid Sven but when the final whistle blew and the score was nowts each the final result lay with the penalty takers, not Sven or Scolari. They missed 2, ...........we missed 3, .......end of a dream, ......end of of a story. 155423[/snapback] Noelie, you're missing the point. If we'd had a good manager who had .......................................... 155476[/snapback] NO, I think you're missing my point bonny lad, the game was up for grabs at the penalty shoot-out and our penalty-takers themselves let the victory slip through their fingers by missing three(3) times out of four(4) and should be held responsible for their failure in the clutch. A 'good' manager would probably have had Gerrard and Lampard in the team too and because of their ability to score goals would have more than likely taken the penalty kicks with any manager, good or bad. And please let me explain, I didn't like Sven from day one and my dislike grew to hatred, and as for McClaren, I think he is a piss-poor choice but I hope he proves me wrong. 155565[/snapback] STOP USING FELT TIP PENS

For sure I'd like to see it dealt with properly....Henry should have been banned for the next game for feigning his facial assault. I'm just saying that we beat our chests every couple of years...drag up a few old wars and expect to win the trophy....it's embarassing

and so on and on and on and on and on and on.......

God how I wish he played for us still

Penalty shoot outs. Wind ups. Diving. All part of the modern game and have been for at least a decade....why do we always act surprised when issues like this get us knocked out? Are we incapable of a bit of guile and/or anger management?

France Zidane and Henry are 2 players worthy of the hype

Exactly! 155380[/snapback]

Cause they lost

FACT

well duh!

Agreed

Apart from stamping on the guys bollocks and pushing someone aggressively English moronic hard done by mentality....we deserved to lose. It was lame. EDITED FOR BOOZE SPELLING 155302[/snapback] Agreed, no room for moaning, we were fucking rubbish and thoroughly deserve to be going home, no excuses or blame, simply not good enough. 155305[/snapback] We still think we have a God given right to win stuff because we're English. We need to stop praising aggression and get smart...... *doesn't hold breath*

I was embarrassed by Shearer today....he showed typical boys club immaturity. International football is as mental as it is physical and we fall for the tricks every bloody time like semi hard fat kids.

Making our British, after-dinner-speaker, stick-off-ver-lads, numbskull-ex-footballer, alcoholic wisdom that you can't practice penalties rather suspect.

How'd that get on the internets? Was that his wifey with the camera?????

He was rather petulant

Except we're not competing with Liverpool any more, but the likes of Blackburn, so....essentially it's a good thing.
