What? Do what clubs like Birmingham and Everton do and make big bids for players they have no chance of getting, trying to make out they are a big club. There would be nothing more embarrassing then doing that

Cant see where Spains goals are going to come from: 1-1 (That sounds so much like a Lawro prediction)

Its quite simple why they keep going on about England, because its the BBC!!! Its being broadcast around Britain. Get over it mate!

Shame about most of their football fans though! Potential trouble expected for this game i hear

bbc.co.uk show all games live on the net (as long as they are ones being shown on bbc1)

You're joking right? Leonardo has to be the most pointless 'pundit' ever. He never says anything insightful and states the obvious more times than Hanson!! "Yes, Czech Republic play in white". Whenever he talks, its car crash Tv. Oh, and i do like Martin O'Neill as a pundit but i really dont think he is as 'witty' as people make out. He seems like a bit of a fool and a rather nasty man.

Good one! Sweeden were ###### poor! England should beat T&T on Thursday meaning we qualify, which will mean we can rest a few players against Sweeden and should still have enough to get the point (if needed) to top the group.

Thought England played ok today. No need to peak too soon in the competition. First half we played quite well actually and was never in any danger against a half decent side who England made look pretty poor. Second half both teams did nothing, which suited Englang just fine. England win in 1st gear which is good enough for me. Whats the point in playing fantastic against Paraguay when we have bigger fish to fry later in the competition. England couldn't win either way anyway, had we played well everyone would be saying, "its only Paraguay"

Owwch! That hurts

Something to be proud of then............... Lets face it, that will be last win for some time i guess

looking good for the aussies! Holding Liechtenstein!!

Thought it would be interesting to hear peoples memories from previous world cup especially from you oldies. I myself have only overseen 2 World Cups (being born in 1987 and not being old enough to remember the 1990 WC), but here are a few of mine. 1998- - England beating Tunisia when in year 5 me and a few of my mates being the only ones in the year who were allowed to watch the match during lesson time with the year above. -Sol Cambells run from his own box to the other end against Columbia -Michael Owen scoring that fantastic goal against Argentina - and being to nervous to watch the penalty shoot-out against them. Resulting in me sitting outside in the garden waiting to hear the cries of joy from inside.....................of course they never came awwww 2002 -watching England with a bowl of cerial most of the time -david beckhams scoring the penalty while at a mates house as we (as well as the builders outside listening to the game on the radio), danced around the street - and losing to Brazil, watching in the school hall with all the plastic paddies cheering for Brazil. Wow- there was a lot of violence that day! So, whats yours.............

Swiss to hold the French to a draw.

Scottish people- what a bunch of losers! (wondering if anyone will bite?)

So you would want Gerrard to have risked injury by just letting the player chop him down? Because that's what would have happened had he stood there and took it. It was a natural movement by Gerrard to move his feet out of the way before getting cruched at 50mph. Just imagine yourself in his position, knowing your about to be taken out, only a moron would stand there to face the pain!

exactly. He'd had been out of the world cup had he not dived out the way. The player didn't play the ball, its a foul

This Sven bloke is a fraud! Im sure Carragher said a while back that he's not quick enough to play there!! Why not play the player who plays there week in week in his actually position?

Ghana for me!

Well actually, Casillas has been off form for about 2 years now! And about the world beaters in each team, England have 2 in my eyes (3 if you include Rooney) in Gerrard and Lampard who have the ability to win games on their own. Especially Gerrard. And Italy certainly have at least one in Totti. (dont listen to those who say he never performes on the big stage), he was fantastic in Euro 2000 While Holland have Van Nistelrooy who will always score! Agree about Portugal, they wont do anything this year and their best player Deco has been poo this year

Dont think they have a chance personally. Although nobody thought Germany would do aswell as they did in 2002. But they did have a fantastic keeper and a world beater in their side to carry them. Spain, have neither IMO

Well sky 1 took some of Boltons Uefa Cup games this season so theres another option for Rovers.

Rovers fans will still find something to complain about . "Those bloody great big hats, cant see a bloody thing!"

thought Pongo was ok actually and I felt Bentley put in quite a good performance! agree on MGP though BUT WHO GIVES A ######!!! WE'RE IN EUROPE!!!

another one to add to the list: e) WHERE IS THE FINAL BEING HELD? also, I want to get through to the group stages before we go to some big teams countries. ............Rovers v ....Armenia Fc (or whatever an Armenian clubs called) please.........

1st round of course?!
