thought i'd create a thread for this!
to be honest, i'm expecting a bit of a boring game in some ways.
either side may attempt to slow the game pace down to help defence.
both teams have strong offence so they'll both have a big emphasis on defense. now... any chinks in that will tip the game.
france is gonna be a real test BUT it also gives both teams a tactical advantage going through the group coz the hardest games outta the way
the other thing is the players know each other, lots of em play in the english leagues.. people like rooney are known threats. whereas against other teams they dont know much about him.
whats interesting to me is that in our papers we havent had a lot of slagging off of the french, we actually had thierry henry in our papers saying he fears owen and rooney... wtf?! owen is gunning for top scorer in the tournment to take henry's crown (and prob give himself a pay rise).
hope its gonna be a goodun! :)
-
I think it's gonna be a hard tough match with at least 1 red card. My prediction is 2-2.
Man, this one should have been the 3rd match of the group :o
-
tie.
-
I cant even call this one but I'll try. I think France will take the lead through Viera at around 25/30 mins mark. Owen will hit one back for us just before half time after some good work from Rooney. Then at around 70 mins somebody from the middle like Scholes or Lampard will score and we will win the game 2-1!!!!!!!!!!
Come on Englandddddd!
-
england 1-0
dont think there will be many goals
-
aaa... come on...
we all know that france is the better team...
the only threats are scholes and gerrard....
henry and trezeguet will break the english defense like chopsticks... if rio played, yall would have a better wall
thuram and desally will take rooney to school ;D
i say 2-0 or 2-1 to france

Everyone is a threat man, we have lampard, scholes, owen, rooney, beckham, gerrard...they are all threats man...just like the way France have henry, Trez, Zidane, Viera, Pires, all threats!
Desially aint playing, rooney and owen would cut him to shreads, the france manager knows that. I think King will be ok, he's not experienced but it dont mean shit really. All he has to do is go in there and play like he usually does, well!. I think its gunna be a tight game!
-
i think King's gonna have a tough game, i mean he's been playing in midfield for spurs this season. I cant really call it, but i think France will edge it!
*prepares to lose some karma*
-
half time score england 1 france 0 ;D
-
france was the more dominant team, but only thing that matters is 1 - 0
-
CRAP
1-0 to england after first half >:(
-
france just got robbed of a penalty...
gosh yall englishmen got luck
-
AHAHHAHAHA
2-1 FRANCE
-
now you know what it feels like.. *recalls Munich - ManU Champions League Final"
-

8) 8) 8)
i will say it again... france will win this cup
-
DAAAAAAAAAAAAMn that was fucin insane, crazy!!!!!!!!!
Word, that was crazy.. :o :o
Zidane = Best player in the world.. just to come back and win the game like that..
King & Rooney was Englands best players..
Wouldn't think that these 2 youngsters would be this good so soon on international level..
Rooney is a psycho though, should have been at least booked for elbowing Desailly (or was it Gallas)
-
i didn't see henry flame today ::)
-
ha ha ha ... FUCK FRANCE! >:(

word, king and rooney played best for england, dont agree with zidane being best player in world but yeah, the shit he did at the end was sick.....the freekick was sick.........
y'all lucky jamaica is not in this tournament or we would have fucked y'all up.......
my team that i chose for that dubcc league is going on weak
seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen
-
gutted...
Silvestre should have been sent off.. he's gonna get stick when he goes back to Man U...
both the french goals were due to stupid ass mistakes
heskey shouldnt be doing the defenders job and have given away that free kick...
i think the penalty was a shame.. gerrard screwed up there.. james didnt have much choice.. i dont think he went out to get him
-
i didn't see henry flame today ::)
nah... i guess he didnt.... but dues it really matter considering that france have zizou... the world greatest player?
-
Oh my god. no way!
Grrrrr!
-

I don't know who's better at this moment, Zinedine Zidane or Thierry Henry.

"Rooney is a psycho though"
word i thought he was gonna snap and kill Vieira (when Vieira was trying to calm Rooney down and Rooney was slaping his hands away.... geez)
i'm not really a fan of France winning but the end of the game is what will make people remember it
-
if he's confident like that after a couple international games then imagine what he'll develop like in the future! i just hope they try and keep him from going the way Paul Gascoigne did.
did u see him go for zidane as well... haha class
p.s. rooneys missus is fit.. she was all over the mail on sunday yest ;D
-
Zidane was shit the entire game, apart from maybe 2 touches, until the free kick and penalty (i ain't denying the class of the free kick, but come on, what else did he do all game?). Personally i don't think Heskey should be punished too harshly (but he shouldn't get another minute this tournament) but Sven needs the seven shades of shit kicked out of him, what the fuck was he thinking, taking off Rooney for Heskey?!? Rooney was starting too look dangerous again when Vassell came on, peeps were saying he was tired, BITCH PLEASE! he's in the prime and most fit point he'll be at in his life, he should have been able to go the whole game! If you are gonna take him off put on someone who is not known for fucking up for England every time he plays. He should've left Rooney and subbed Lampard instead, dude was looking tired for the last 30 minutes or so. And Beckham should've let Rooney become a man and take the penalty. One good thing, we could have won, and we didn't even play anywhere near our best (but then neither did France. Bugger).
-
Disappointed for a while, England till i die.
-
"just hope they try and keep him from going the way Paul Gascoigne did."
that's a scary thought , Gascoigne was awesome and i see a lot of him in Rooney for some reason .
Does anyone remember when the ref dropped a yellow card and Gascoigne took it , then he pulled it on the ref (or was it a player?) ... lol ....

Fattak: I think it was makelele Rooney went for not Viera.
Rooney is amaziiiiing, dont know why the dumb swede took him off. Yer Seer his bird is quite decent, not bad for him anyway, looks a bit like a builder! My mate waitered at his 18th Birthday at Aintree Racecourse, said he was speaking to all the everton players and that and his bird looked fine. Class hey.
