    Really not sure how that wasn't a penalty. Even so, Savage should shut his idiot mouth.

    If Costa Rica win and our match turns out to be meaningless (from an England perspective), I hope we lose. Finishing on 0 points would be hilarious.

    Costa Rica to top the group? Pretty difficult to imagine we would beat them even if we did still have something to play for.

    I think I will!

    I find it absolutely incredible that Costa Rica set up, an are more prepared tactically than England. For all Hodgsons talk before the World Cup, tactically we were all over the place once again.

    Costa Rica are closing down pirlo early and it's nullified Italy completely. How hard is that to work out?!

    Would be pretty amusing if Costa Rica win this, then Uruguay beat Italy in the last game. Italy and England not even getting out of the group.

    Is anyone still hoping that Italy win for England's sake?
    I'd rather save the humiliation of being battered in the knockouts.

    Funny how everyone considered Costa Rica to be the 'whipping boys' of the group. And it turns out England are the 'whipping boys'! <laugh>

    Yep! Presuming Costa Rica do win this, it's going to make the Italy Uruguay game a very interesting watch. The only reason I may decide to watch the England game instead is that seeing as we have nothing to play for, Roy may decide to give players like Shaw etc a game, and that would be awesome in itself to see. I suppose I can just wait for the squad lineups to be published.
