BBC Radio 5 live's Ian Dennis Germany v England early team news:

"As we know the team news is never concerned until two hours before kick-off but I understand that England will be unchanged this afternoon. That means Fabio Capello, for the first time in his England career, will name the same side in successive games. The one area of debate was who will partner John Terry, I understand that will be Matthew Upson.

"For Germany I understand Bastian Schweinsteiger will be fit but Jerome Boateng will not.

I feel exactly the same. Going down to the pub in a bit. Last time I went was for the Slovenia game. You could feel the tension then. Today the tension may be unbearable.

It's okay though. I've already got some alcohol to calm my nerves a bit.
 
theres this "England are expected to win" air going about, and probablty puts more pressure on them. 1-1 after 120mins got to happen:)

Then.....

:mad::mad::mad::mad:

Penalties....
 
I'm cool as a cucumber, my hardest decision was which Adidas to wear.

White and Red or Red and White :confused:


I'm ****ing it.
 
Whoever says Rooney will show up, he won't.. he's nowhere near good enough to show up in big games and he's a choke artist.
 
Marvellous, I have a feeling the entire city is on its way to being comatose. Payday weekend as well. :/

Be nice if we win, but I'll be honest and admit that ultimately, I don't have the same love for the England football team as I do Arsenal.
 
Oh and people if we do lose, try not to blame Wenger. :rolleyes:

Yeah, that just isn't true.

I'm hoping that the similar England squad show that they've learned their lessons from the past decade. Practised penalties in some way or another and learnt to keep their temperament.
