    I do worry that I may have been a bit forthright though . Perhaps your diplomatic response would have been better .

    Told you I know my football.

    England = bottle merchants. Same every time and now you are doing what you always do and looking for a scapegoat.

    Rooney bottled it. They just don't have a winning mentality.

    Five yards out, centre of the goal and he put it by the post. He bottled it.

    So you're saying he missed because of a lack of courage? Why would he be scared?

    He doubted he could score from 5 yards? He scored from the halfway line last season.

    So why couldn't he score from 5 yards?

    The pressure got to him.

    He's scored in penalty shootouts in the European Championships, World Cup and the Champions League final. Far more pressure than a WC group game. You're talking rubbish pal.

    Suarez 2 chances 2 goals. Rooney 3 chances 1 goal that is the difference between a world class striker and an average one.

    You keep believing WAYNE ROOOOONNNNEEEYYYY is world class but you are the only one.

    All we heard in the build up to the game was how England need to play Rooney in his best position and that he would deliver the goods. Well you did play him up front and he failed.
