I am sure that Steven will gladly take his club mate being off injured for an extra few weeks if it meant England getting that victory and progressing ...
tobes even admitting gerrard could run to get close to suarez to hack him down for a pen is a huge compliment. bang goes the gerrard does nowt campaign right there.
Can't see Luis deliberately feigning injury in the WC to get a fellow player banned. It's not as if he's Slaven Billic during his Everton days.
SvS with an small s backing up. i think it'll be interesting to see which side supplies there forwards and who sticks whom on the wing.
any f'n rumours... whats our team to be.... can we close 'ther thread as rooney is in fact playing no 10... the world waits with total disinterest but still.

If we lose... crazy as it would be losing two and not being out... we could still qualify right? As long as Italy beat Costa Rica and Uruguay! We'd need a good GD win in our final match... but we could still lose this and qualify.
Wont happen, I've predicted 2-1 England. Haven't got a single score line right yet I am a score line jinx.
Who "would take" a draw tonight? Think we really need a win. No one is a pushover in our group. Italy not guaranteed to beat Uruguay either!
