Pardon?

I started top and got bored with being there

Highly unlikely but if Togo win tomorrow it would make that group very interesting

I read that thread. He seemed to be making that point throughout the match. Most of the forum were laughing at him

Essien got away with two tackles similar to that last season

Nice to see that Wikipedia article has been vandalised

No suprises to find out he's from Uruguay Quick Updating on Wikipedia

If that was a Premiership match then it would have been a yellow card, but seeing as though Italy were down to ten and Blatter is in the crowd he may have felt he needed to even it up/look like he is applying Blatters rules in the correct manner so he gets a game later on in the tournament.

The referee seems to like blowing his whistle every time an italian falls over Good decision on the sending off though

Edited your post for you Eddie

Jermaine Jenas isn't likely to play in the World cup. Why didn't he take a striker in place of him

What happens with yellow cards awarded in the group stages in the 2nd round? The yellow cards get wiped out in the second round. So Lampard, Gerrard and Crouch would have their record cleared

If the Sweden score stays the same, it would be an ideal match to try out something like Grizfoots formation. Edit - Don't tinker too much

Bad start for the US

That Dwight Yorke number 19 looks a decent player. I wonder if he'd move to Rovers?

Can't score directly after hitting the woodwork. Must touch either an opposition player or a different teamate must score for the goal to count

I remember Ray Houghtons goal against Italy in 94 and John Aldridge having a go at linesman as he wasn't allowed on the pitch.

They were looking to offload him anyway. Just that nobody will want Cisse now

You could have took your brother

Football has officially gone mad Chelsea pay 12 million to Man United for a guy who hasn't played for them aswell as paying 4 million to Lyn BBC

Who are the fantastic players he is surrounded by? Viduka and Kewell are the only two I could name. Possibly Timmy Cahill or Bresciano but who else could get in our team at he moment?

I'm not doubting that other goals were good if not better but the BBC Liverpool bias may shine through in their choice.

Probably announced on Saturday as the prize is tickets for Saturdays match. Gerrard will probably win

Well he is two week away from full training, so he will miss the Paraguay game

Rooney out for another SIX weeks before he can resume full training Another update - SIX week from when the injury occurred. So thats better
