  1. Completely irrelevant comparison. Nelsen hadn't been to all intents and purposes out of the game for 5 years.

    I disagree.

    The argument seems to be that Jeffers' hasn't done anything in 5 years (despite scoring for England in an international in 2003). However, Nelsen hadn't done *anything* in the game in his entire career.

    Let's give jugears the chance to prove himself before dissing his abilities. We don't know what his mental state is, we don't know what his physical abilities are, we don't know what his motivational levels are. However, it would appear that Hughes does think he's mentally sound, physically capable and suffciiently motivated to do a job.

    It is extremely unlikely that Jeffers is the main striker and will more likely the replacement for Dickov than for Bellamy.

  2. It's not being idiotic, it's being realistic. It's not like he's had a bad season, he's done nothing since 2001.

    If anything it's idiotic to expect that he will come good.

    Just as idiotic as thinking a player from that well reknowned hot bed of football, New Zealand, who has only played in that equal talent bed of football, the USA, could possibly be a top central defender?

  3. I have been really impressed woth Argentina so far but I thought they actually looked little vulnerable at the back. If Mexico had beter strikers I rekon they could hae comeout of that with a win.

    However you have to suspect that Argentina were playing at around 70% for most of the game.

    If anyone can beat them I would imagine Germany, the way they are playing, are the team to do it. I hope they don't though!

    Totally agree that a better strike force for Mexico and the result could well have been different. Not so sure Argentina were deliberatley playing within themselves. I don't think they expected Mexico to play with such vigour and never really looked comfortable in the game.

    If they come up against a team that can play with Mexico's tempo but with a better strikeforce, they might come unstuck. Unfortunately, I can't think of a team that is likely to do that.

  4. Interesting interview with one the senior British police officers over there.

    He said something along the lines of that when the 60k fans turn up they aren't expecting too much trouble as they would be there to enjoy the football and themselves. He was suggesting that the arrests and trouble so far are from the typical idiots who tag themselves onto football as a way of masking their loathsome behaviour.

    Probably has a very valid point.

  5. I've just received the confirmation card thingy through the post and guess what...

    I'm in seat 15 row 199 !! muppets! can't even get the flaming row and seat numbers in the right columns.. hmm I'd better check and make sure they've got the right ground !!!!!

    I've just noticed that as well. However, I'll forgive them for that error because I think the reverse side of the card is so cool. :)
