    I think we will be lucky to scrape 2 points from our group. Poor display, but regardless it won't stop be enjoying all the actual good teams in the WC.

    It was actually 10 goals, 14 came from Wiki which was wrong.

    Jimmy Greaves had an even better record, let's get him in.

    He's fearless but also stupid, loses posession regularly, now we don't want that against Italy in that heat.

    <laugh> No it isn't, I checked wikipedia after your statement and it said it was 10 all comps. 8 in league.

    Why the **** does it matter, it came from Wiki. It's actually 10 all competition goals. His international record is still great. I would have taken him with the other 4 strikers. Goals win games and we're too wasteful.

    No.


    It was 8, and that's according to Wikipedia.

    The only mention of him scoring 14 goals on his Wiki page is this: "He joined Stoke City on 31 August 2011 for a club record fee of £10 million. In his first season with Stoke he scored 14 goals and won the club's player of the year award."

    So Wiki wasn't wrong - you just misread it and ended up counting his 2011/12 tally as last season's.

    You owe Wiki an apology now.

    Honduras, Ecuador... the quality in World Cup is appaling.....and England distinctly average. The only teams worth watching must be Brazil, Spain, Argentina, Holland, Belgium, Germany, and..... Japan (they play proper football).

    No. It was 8.

    Unless you're seriously thinking about adding goals against Birmingham and Tranmere to your argument.

    England captain Steven Gerrard: "I don't understand the referee when the ball is being kicked into a player's chest. That should have been a straight red card and with 10 men it could have been different."......no , we saw you're equally useless with 10 men. Excuses excuses excuses.

    Why? Greavesy has a great international record, must be worth it.

    Are you getting the message yet? Not. Good. Enough. Anymore.

    How many goals did he score in his 38 appearances for Stoke City last season? Yes, that's 10.

    In relation to that, half of his goals for England came against Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Andorra, Macedonia, Estonia, and Belarus.
