[red g]

I haven't seen a lot of Defour personally, but always heard good things about him.

me neither, he sounds great but will defour judgement till I have seen more, or he signs for us

2-1

[RichC]

I've never really rated Lescott anyway but my goodness he makes some rash decisions - if he's up there to be a replacement for the first choice CB's for England it is a bit of worry!

[The Erectile Banana]

Full Time

Ireland 2 Uruguay 3

Pretty respectable in the end after it looked like they'd run away with it at one point. Decent second half performance from a very weakened line-up.

[Mattshark]

Wilshere looked a bit rubbish today. England losing shape and control of the game.

Has Kuyt scored in the last 3 of 4 internationals he's played?

Something like that. Definitely 3 goals in his last 2 games.

Have to disagree with you over Young though, he has had space, but I don't think he has done well when he has had it bar one shot on target.

[Mattshark]

Out of curiosity, has Defoe touched the ball yet?

[Mattshark]

Brilliant goal from Gyan

[RichC]

fantastic goal from Gyan there - really well taken

[Reece]

Excellent goal.

The Ghana fans are awesome

[dww]

Lescott has been poor

I thought he was good first half. Less so second. Downing was definitely better than him.

[Shaggy]

That was a ****ing cracking game.

Spent the whole game chuckling to myself at Gyan. He's always lively but I still think he's **** ...headless chicken. Then he goes and scores a cracking goal like that.

Similar with Carroll...thought he was having a poor game, looking well short of match sharpness....cue an excellent finish.

Ghana are hilarious...outrageous enthusiasm and some crazy tackling ...great value.

[The Erectile Banana]

Ghana deserved their goal from what I saw of the game.

[Reece]

Carroll had his eye on that bottle of bubbly, the dirty pisshead.

[Shaggy]

Ghana deserved their goal from what I saw of the game.

They did in the end. Young missed an open goal which would've put the game to bed but a draw was probably fair. England played some great stuff at times in the 1st half, the 4-3-3 seems to suit them much better.
