Maybe, but he hasnt shown it here. Terry saved his ass against T&T. The crossbar saved two here and the last goal was a disaster of indecisiveness. He seems unwilling to come out and take high balls.

It is a nice draw for the group of 16 (about as good as one could hope for really) and the reality is that the "top 8" games should be tough no matter where you are in the draw. Portugal or Netherlands are likely opponents but it could be Argentina or Mexico

Imagine you're a fish. Is it good or bad? Thats how it's used.

Gutted is an American word too, isn't it? As in, to be destroyed on the inside?

Or am I walking blindfold into the bleedin' obvious again?

Ok so its bad. So you think its terrible that the English soccer team is doing well and have a good chance in the next round?

[reds4ever]

Everyone was saying how bad we were and what a bad WC we were having. It was just sarcasm, I think Agathon got it..........?

:O)

That's what I thought but I wasnt sure since I thought you were being sarcastic.

Is sarcasm really that hard to grasp?
