*Official* English Football Season 2006-07

Bet neither were as good as the one from the other leg. Gun.

Magic ping.

 

[marc71178]

Indeed.

SSN had his other career goal on Saturday morning, almost identical.

The one against Ipswich was further out, iirc.

Expected lineup tonight from the papers:

Robinson

Cole
Ferdinand
Terry
Carragher
Neville

Parker
Carrick
Lampard

Rooney
Crouch

Not the best IMO - Neville doesn't have the legs to play RWB.

Although we tend to bounce back from moribund performances, I'm going 1-0 to the mad Catholic racists.

A draw would be a fine result.

Celtic?

 

[Pedro Delgado]

Celtic?

Heh heh. Celtic certainly have their mad Catholics, but few racists, they're anti-racist if anything and have strong ties with St.Pauli.

 

[Matteh]

Going to be such an average game tonight IMO

Agreed, thats why i was bit tentative about playing that formation if they actually do. In the future i can see England really playing this formation, young Micah Richards looks to have the potential to be a good enough RWB.

Not if Scott Parker shines, hehe

 

[Matteh]

Big If.

 

[BoyBrumby]

I'm disconcertingly confident, actually. I'm going 3-1 England with a Rooney brace.

 

[steds]

Brumby's been on Corrin's medication, imo.

 

[marc71178]

Croatia unbeaten at home in competitive games, so a draw is the best we can realistically hope for - I fear a defeat though - that team does not look to me to be that strong to be honest.

 

[aussie]

England its time to show your worth, come on England

 

[Pothas]

Going to be such an average game tonight IMO

almost certainly. England have zero craft in that side, no football vision at all. Teams can still play good football without that, with pace and natural ability but they are showing no sighns of that and Croatia are hardly a flair side. Plus the fact two full backs are playing as wing backs means its basicly a 5 man defence. As i have no access to sky im hoping radio 5 will be making it entertaining

Well Croatia couldn't beat the convicts in the World Cup so I figure England will never hear the end of it if Croatia win - just look at the way the went on about a meaningless friendly result.

Yet, the response to the draw at the weekend was "it was only a friendly" ...

 

[aussie]

geez its like England can't get the ball from these blokes.

Crossing from England seems to be mostly crap again. Scotland looking reasonably solid apart from being a bit panicky at the back.
