Do Norway really need to equalize before we wake up and show some urgency?

England have been gooseberry fool since Gerrard went off. Midfield sitting far too deep.

ITV referring to The Ox as Hodgson's boldest selection :fp:

He's only been quality since featuring for Arsenal this season :lol:

Bold selection would have been Andy Johnston.

Yep, and showed that with a decent first touch of the ball.

Huseklepp is on. Finally something to care about. :wub:

Pity what's happened to his career.

To be honest I'd be quite happy if Norway scored, England have been strawberry floating toss since.. well, the goal :lol:

AJ hadn't played in 5 weeks (apparently) and he looked far, far better than Downing ever did.

The England band 8-)

That'll do boys

PostRe: The Football Thread 2011/12 by **Cuttooth** » Sat May 26, 2012 9:42 pm

Trust Turboman to like the band. :roll:

PostRe: The Football Thread 2011/12 by **Bigerich** » Sat May 26, 2012 9:42 pm

*yawn*

That was a really poor spectacle. Also, it's no wonder Huseklepp is out in the cold if that's what he's doing these days. Come back to Brann, Erik, and you'll find some form again. :wub:

It's pretty obvious from tonight, that if we don't have a leader on the pitch we're fairly useless. A better side would have destroyed us tonight. If Gerrard gets injured, we need another 'captain' to replace him (not Terry.)

No Ashley Young?

CRAP! I'll hand in my resignation to the FA in the morning

Haha, it's alright. That's why there's always an assistant manager.

Solid defence but woeful going forward. Carroll feeding on scraps, an early Downing cross his only chance. Some good link-up play on the rare occasion he got a decent ball.

@BigGrantHolt: The Stewart Downing Drinking game.

1) Down a drink everytime Downing passes backwards.

WARNING. Game will cause death.
