Let's be fair; in terms of posession, of course the Argies had us pinned back, but in terms of chances, they didn't get up to much. They had us pinned back for 30 minutes outside our 18 yard box, yet I barely counted two shots on goal. Just lots of fannying around, crosses that go nowhere, corners that go nowhere, passing in triangles looking for gaps that aren't there. For half an hour they barely found a single way through the English defence.
The Argentinians had the ball but they did not have the initiative. I still think they are one of the strongest sides in the tournament, but England have shown to be a tough side who could well go far, so long as don't lose our heads like against Sweden. Mind England are an inconsistent side who don't always stick to their form, but I remain optimistic :) |

after englands shoody first performance against sweden i reckon now they have a geood chance of progressing at least into the semi's!
..but i still have this naggin feeling that they'l make it hard for themselves..just like against greece (to qualify).
england have never made it look easy!
i really want them to prove me wrong!
anyway..i'l be up at 6am and in the pub for 7am!..the things you do for your country eh?:D :wtf: :toocool: :tongue2 |

| I reckon around the quarter or maybe semi's. They played good against Argentina, but I don't think that defending a 1 goal lead works I seriously thought Argentina were getting closer and closer to a goal in the last 15 minutes of that match, England certainly are missing Steven Gerrard, not enought through balls forward, but who knows, Erickson has proved what at fantastic coach he is just look at his record with teams in club football. This world cups odd though very odd. |

Definately Semi Finals.
Argentina Out, Italy and Portugal probably going out too
We'll beat Denmark to get to the Quarter Finals, Where we'll most probably face Brazil. It could either be a beautiful result or not. :)
However, in the unlikely event that Brazil lose to Japan, then we'll face them.
Then its the Semi's, where I can't be arsed to work out who we could posssibly face! :p |
