ok i have now offically moderated something by reopening thsi crap and merging the much better non mod spoiled thread into this one.
Couple of smashing games today. Shaping up to be a great WC now we're not in it. Love watching African teams on the rampage.
The Harry red knapp sniping never ends.... The tax dodgers ire at not being selected has reached the point where he is now accusing tottenhams few England players of shirking England duty To me who's begged for Gerrard to tell England to F off this is rather annoying on many levels 1. Redknapp is like a snake in the grass at this stage and one feels that aside from England being awful and nobody being willing that a big giant up patriotic headline over his ugly mush would be a fine thing. Just shut up in other words 2. It's clear given how few players they had that he must be talking about the likes of Parker or perhaps Huddleston or Dawson... Perhaps the young lads like naughton or walker. Better he'd named cos any England player under redknapp must now be considered suspect 3. We all know the sort that do this and know that certain clubs were famous for it especially around friendlies. At least we know that very few lfc players skip their international matches as we get sick and tired of Suarez in Dubai or Gerrard creaking round after playing 90+4 mins v some no name team
I've got it on the TV but can't say I've really been watching it. Nothing to grab the attention. According to Martin 'I know nothing' Keown, Russia are growing in confidence. Too bad they can't grow in quality.
Belgium win it 1-0 with a late goal from Origi,set up by Hazard. Mirallas came on with about 15 mins. left and injected a bit of pace but generally very poor from both sides.
Seen most of both games and they just havn't clicked yet. Even though Hazard provided the assist he only impressed in the final 10 mins. Lukaku was pants. Fellaini was quiet aswell. Wonder how they will get on against a decent side.
