EARLY Monday Football Thread
The world cup really comes alive as Germany serve up the first 'big' performance wih an annihilation of a poor Aus side, who weren't helped by a uncharateristically (thus far) poor sending off decision. Germany looked superb, although they have a team full of cunts (little consolation the england fan who has the latter only...). That Ozil fella looks like a computer-generated freak.
Ledley King's WC could be over if reports this morning are to be believed - his groin injury will take 2-3 weeks to heal by all accounts. There goes the pace from our centre defence - maybe we could play SWP as sweeper. I guess carragher will play the rest of the tounament now, which is a shame as he's shit, and about half the pace of the WC's top forward men like Josy Altidore.
Fab has a tough decision to make over his GK situation. If he drops Green then the guy will probably kill himself. He seems to hate James, so maybe Hart will get the nod? I feel sorry for Green, but he must be bottom of the pile now surely? His mistake was indefensible, and the save he pulled off in the second half, over which ITV orgamsed was very nearly an error on his part. Sub-thread: WHy do england have such pony keepers?
The algeria GK does the honourable thing and makes Green feel a little better with a blunder almost as bad as SLovenia achieve their first WC win. The algeria sub who last 10 minyutes before his red card is amazing.
LOL @ ITV. How do they manage to do everything so badly? Chiles, Keegan, Davids, Viera and SOuthgate must be THE worst presenting team ever. And no Drury/Tyldsely/Townsend, EMile Heskey was not outstanding.
Well done Ghana.
AND FINALLY. Vuvuzelas(?). The only thing worse than these horn thingies, are the people who keep moaning about them.
