I feel sorry for Rob Green, but let's be honest that was ****ing hilarious.

Need Jamo on.

His confidence will be shot now! id pull him off at half time for that!

Not sure he deserves that after that howler.

England can't control games, they have never been able to control games.

Why though? They have half a dozen players who are capable of holding onto the ball and playing intelligently.

No wonder Capello looks so ****ed off every time they're playing.

England.....very poor in that first half. Haven't played football at all........scored a goal, done nothing after it and conceded a ****e goal. That about sums it up.
Bottom line is, they are playing against an honest, but extremely limited team, who would really struggle against a side who could get the ball down and play football with some possession and clever movement.
That team is not England, and in many ways the US have looked the more confident side, are playing better football without being much use and fully deserve their equalizer.
Rooney is completely isolated and just waiting to lash out at someone in pure frustration........England can still go on here an win this, but they need to sharpen up their passing and get Rooney into the game.

We're getting John Dykes here on ESPN Asia. The fella always impresses me.

We get John Updike here.

No, they are capable of fast attacking, they are not capable of simply retaining possession and grinding down teams and tiring them out.

Stick with Green imo, he's a good keeper, maybe needs a season or two at a club playing in european competition and one where there's a bit more pressure. Horrible time to make such a mistake, but i suspect the media will crucify him now, just like they've done with almost every keeper you lot have had over the last few years.

Every goalie makes mistakes, his just came at not a very good moment

[Leyton388]

At least its a british spillage the US are pleased to see!!!
