2014 FIFA World Cup Qualifying 7/8/11 September *** Spoilers ***

[maun]

We can win this...

Not now

 

[Robbo]

Cheerio Gerrard.

 

[Azza]

Ta-ra Stevie G

 

[pingwing]

I don't even think I'd be disappointed with that.
How long can England get away with playing so poor and not make wholesale changes in the England setup. Still too many yes men.

Rest of our life time will be filled with this nonsense if the game plan of put quick people on who have the touch of a rapist then get cheap late penalties to save a result keeps working like tonight...

At least Gerrard does the decent thing of showing why he shouldn't be doing 90 mins of int football

 

[Robbo]

Re: van Persie.

Van Gaal: "Persie was only taken off as a precaution"

Thank the lord. (hope it's true anyway).

It's true:

Van Gaal on RVP: "We took off Robin for precautionary measures. It doesn't seem to be too serious. We didn't want to take any risks."

 

[Ephemera]

What was he thinking there??

 

[McBain]

Defoe goal disallowed, not a pen the first time = bad luck some would say.

Absolutely, the way it was worded was like England had gotten lucky with the penalty!

 

[pingwing]

Lampard man of the match!

English football needs a kick, again, even harder than the last 3...

 

[mmj_uk]

A point is not the end of the world, we should have won this easily though the chances we've had.

 

[shipinabottle]

Johnson what was going through your head then...

 

[McBain]

Silly challenge from Gerrard.

 

[Azza]

Absolutely, the way it was worded was like England had gotten lucky with the penalty!

noooo haha.

 

[Azza]

Haha dived!!

 

[Purdy]

Good lad Steve, now stop playing **** for us while missing next break

 

[greeny_fastcar]

Dived... Oh dear.

 

[omnomnom]

Very harsh on people to give Gerrard stick. Welbeck with a 9.0.

 

[Ephemera]

Lampard man of the match!

English football needs a kick, again, even harder than the last 3...

Wait what? Really? Lampard has been average at best.

 

[pingwing]

Wait what? Really? Lampard has been average at best.

Yep thats what Clive decided in the commentary box for "keeping a calm nerve in the penalty"

Joke, would have been harder not to score that penalty...

 

[muon]

Wasn't even a very good penalty.

 

[McBain]

Well... Not the end of the world.
