World Cup is here

Worst loss for England in its World Cup history.

I'm out of my depressive funk now.

We need to fix the center of our defense, Ghana exploited that twice and scored, Algeria hit the bar, Slovenia scored, and England scored. Four of the six we conceded came from that area.

Bradley should be complimented though, he got a lot out of those players but the decision to start Clark over an in form Edu was a head scratcher, I'm sure he's kicking himself over it. At least he admitted his mistake though....

Unlike Capello who's refusal to change anything saw his team implode today. I know they lost a good goal due to a bad decision but they were completely outclassed today. In need of a goal Capello manages to leave Crouch, who has a good goal scoring record for England, and works superbly well with Defoe for Tottenham, on the bench. He hates Crouch personally, he tried his damnedest not to pick him when he first got the job and now he keeps putting the screws to him. Crouch should go to the FA and say it's him or Capello.

Two English speaking teams officially finished the World Cup unbeaten. New Zealand (Played 3, Drew 3), and the US (Played 4, Won 1, Drew 3).

No excuses. Capello picked the wrong squad and the wrong team and our shortcomings (lack of width, pace and creativity) were exploited by a thoroughly average Germany side.

That's the World Cup over for me. Can't stand any of the teams left in it.

[Delhommey]

Nobody on our frontline could finish at all. Findley, Altidore, Buddle and Gomez all got great opportunities to score and just couldn't do anything other than make the keeper put his gloves up.

And yes, Clark was horrid and directly responsible for two goals.

[Bobby]

I wanted to see Beckerman make the team. Holds the ball well in midfield. Maybe Bradley thought he's too much like Michael?

[Matt Foley]

England looked like Neville Chamberlain out there today.

[Delhommey]

Come on Tri's. Let's get the upset.

[JakeFlake]

so far, this is a pillow fight.

[JakeFlake]

Goaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll Argentina! Carlos Tevez! So what if he was offsides.

[JakeFlake]

Goaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllll Argentina. Higuain. Thanks to shambolic defending by El Tri.

[JakeFlake]

2-0 Argentina at the half. It should only be 1-0, though. Now we got a fight behind the Argentina bench.

2-0 Argentina at the half. It should only be 1-0, though.

[Delhommey]

Mexico went on tilt after that first goal.
