[Muddled]

Really odd question, can anyone produce or find a picture of woy as an owl, not compared to one but covered in feathers? Please. Google is not my friend, so far.

Joey Barton has a few words on England

The English national team are sh*t. What's the point of this commission? It's quite a smart move if you're Greg Dyke because you've got eight other people in front of you when we fail at the next World Cup and it's a smart move from the Premier League to isolate themselves from it.

there was a bloke whose name i didnt catch chatting on talksport this evening about doing a bit of a recce into futsal and reporting to the fa that this is what we should be going with. this was back in the early 90s, and the dinosaurs just poo pooed it.

he spent some time in south america, and was talking about the young talent in the prem, like coutinho and oscar, etc.

interesting.

Isnt that the guy who runs Garforth Town and got Socrates to turn out for them aged 50 odd?

Simon Clifford and his Brazilian Soccer Schools. I think he claimed that this was the way youth level football should develop- but got pretty much laughed out of town.

England manager Roy Hodgson shows job may not be impossible after all. Twenty years on from Graham Taylor's World Cup downfall, Hodgson's England are becoming a cohesive, modern team, parps Daniel Taylor in The Observer.

Its the usual England hype machine that slowly grinds into gear before a WC and then crashes out when England eventually get beaten by the Germans in the QF/SF's.

Every major tournament it happens.

Chief football correspondent for The Times Oliver Kay: "Hodgson is asked if he plans a Churchillian speech tomorrow. He asks Gerrard: 'I don't think I do many Churchillian speeches, do I?' SG: 'No'."

Hearing Hodgson's name boils my piss *SO* much.

TBH I am completely over him now. I do shudder when I think he was Manager of LFC though.

Does Hodgson go out of his way to make himself look like a complete ****wit or does it just come naturally?

Hodgson has managed to achieve what I didn't expect.

The hype around this game is unbearable. Expectations have been dumbed down to such a point, I expect a national holiday to be declared if England win tonight.

And Andros Townsend sounds like Andy's Italian stepson.

[Roboklopp]

Bodge looking rattled.
