Of course they are. They're just where they should be rather than underperforming with Hodgson (can beat the **** teams and lose to the decent ones).Originally posted by Bender View PostThis was their easiest chance ever to get to the finals and they showed they are no further forward than before.Trey Nyoni: countdown to stardom-2 years1year0.5 years

Originally posted by cream View PostWorst world cup ever, really low on quality. Were there any highlights? Stand out games, players etc?
Kane's golden boot will probably sum up the tournament for me.
the worst I can remember. Bit of drama but none of the big boys showed up really & the standard of football itself has been dreadful. One to forget.

Yes and no. Many of the big teams no showed and that was disappointing, making the latter stages about lacklustre. However, there were some brilliantly entertaining games. For me nothing was as irritating and **** as the vuvuzela cup.Originally posted by danperkins View Post

Without wanting to sound overly dramatic but the Witsel yellow card, for me, highlights absolutely everything that is wrong with the snidey bull**** that goes on in football. I don't care if for a month or so every game is abandoned due to too many red cards.
3rd minute of 3 minutes of stoppage time and England free kick in their own half and Witsel is standing one yard in front of the man delaying play.
That has
Should be free kick to England but on the man, not the ball. Sooner the game eliminates the ****ty behaviour the sooner we get to watch quality football. Its the same tolerance that has led to acceptance of shielding in place of obstructionFootball without Origi is nothing

It's a game that nobody wants to play in. Completely pointless. Apart from the Olympics there's not another football knock out competition with a 3rd / 4th place play off.Originally posted by baitman View Post4th

all these hero's, brave england lads being ****e and getting praised for it.
As a game, it doesn't make any sense.
England beat all expectations by getting to the semis.
I'm no England fan but I really don't get your point.Oh I don't know.

They are being lauded as "hero's" because they beat a few **** teams and then got beaten by every good team they faced, belgium twice and croatia once.Originally posted by dom9 View PostIt's a game that nobody wants to play in.

Typical english press going ott, **** team and **** performances.
The first game they pressed a bit but it has reverted to type.removing all the weak links makes us stronger
too many gutless players, no beef or desire. pussies everywhere... sack them all.

Perhaps. But they've equaled the second best ever England performance at a World Cup, so they are heroes to an extent.Originally posted by baitman View PostThey are being lauded as "hero's" because they beat a few **** teams and then got beaten by every good team they faced, belgium twice and croatia once.

So what has laughing at 4th place got to do with anything?Oh I don't know.
