    Messi's only got one goal at World Cups so I suppose there'd be no point having him in our team either.

    What's your point? He can score loads of goals for England unless it's a World Cup in which case he's a different player for some reason? He was crocked in 2006, and 2010 was a disaster for everyone. He scored 4 goals in 4 games in Euro 2004, 9 goals in the 2010 qualifiers and 7 in the 2014 qualifiers. He's scored twice against Brazil, four times against Croatia, three times against Switzerland, among many others against good quality opponents.

    We weren't good in any of the games. The Sweden game was like watching Sunday football. We must have been less drunk than them. It was exciting, but we didn't play well.

    Why didn't that idiot Roy pick Heskey then? The stats speak for themselves. He is infinite times more potent than Rooney in World Cups.

    My point is, obviously, when the chips are down he's not the same player. You have to go back ten years for the last time he played well in an international tournament, and even then, when we really needed him he got himself stupidly sent off. He's got a lot to prove.

    Correction: the sending off was in 2006, not 2004.

    That's not obvious at all. It's not the only possible reason why he hasn't scored in a World Cup. In fact it's one of the least likely explanations because he has shown himself to be a big game player on countless occasions.
