Re: Good job England didn't play Ivory Coast yesterday
I don't agree that Argentina nearly cr***ed themselves. It should have been 3-1, that ball DID cross the line. Ivory coast played very well against world class opposition though. The only problem was their finishing. They made lots of chances at goal, but only managed to score one of them.
Let's face it, they just weren't good enough to beat a team of that calibre.

Re: Good job England didn't play Ivory Coast yesterday
Charging forward doesn't win you games, it leaves big gaps at the back for the other team to exploit. Ivory Coast lost and rightly so in my book, they was second best in every area of the field and should have lost by more. It was poor finishing that made them only lose by the score line they did, oh and the ref

Re: Good job England didn't play Ivory Coast yesterday
agreed on the ref and their poor finishing but Argentina was greatly outskilled in the midfield. Ivory Coast dominated all of the second half and the only reason they didn't win is lack of experience.

Re: Good job England didn't play Ivory Coast yesterday
It seems you always seem to have been watching a different game to me and most of the people I know Fox. I could pick at just about every post you've made since the World Cup started. But what would be the point of that carrying arguements throughout this thread.
So all I will say is this, IMO Holland was lucky to have the win here. As in the second half the was certainly second best. A draw would have been fair here, but this is football and it's not always fair.

1-1 at the half for Mexico - Iran...
I was expecting Mexico to do what they are doing offensively...but is their defense that porous?
Iran is flitting into the box too easily...

Cool Portugal won 1-0 but if anyone saw the game they could have easily been 4-5 goals..great game and I hope they keep it
Re: Good job England didn't play Ivory Coast yesterday
To be honest Fox I stop reading yours and Calms posts when you both stated your supporting just about everyone in the competion. I can't understand people who support loads of teams and actually say their passionate about them. IMO you can only be passionate about one team and no more. A passionate fan can admit when their team plays very badly as England did yesterday. But also if your passionate about only one team, you can view the other matches with a complete unbiased opinion. This is something you can't do as your supporting just about every team in it.
I could go back through this thread and most likely pick out 8 teams you've said are going to win it. But what would the point be, because unlike you I'm not looking to argue right through threads.
Oh and isn't this a World Cup thread, so why meantion Liverpool
This is my :2 cents: and any reply you write will be ignored (so tip here, save your time and don't bother!).
********** said:But then that's the lovely thing about football. It's all a matter of opinion. You can post your views, I'll post mine. "Most of the people you know"? Well, tell them to come forward and post their opinions too, cause a lot of the people I know (and on this thread) seem to have similar views on the Trinidad, Ivory and so on... have you ever considered that maybe you just don't like me?
If my posts incense you so much, don't read them. I love talking about the games, that's what this thread is for, even if I'm talking to myself sometimes
So... how about Rafa Benitez claiming compensation for Cisse, eh Poggy? Oh wait, I forgot, you did your nut about me mentioning Liverpool out of context last time. Gotta be careful not to piss you off. Note to self. Must not piss off Poggy.

30 Mins til game time and I can't see it!
It's 30 mins now until Japan vs Australia, but I don't have cable and only certain games are shown on ESPN (an American Cable Sports Channel), I can't watch. I guess I have to call a friend and wake their ass up to go over and watch. Non-Americans are lucky, you guys probably get all the games on regular channels huh? Just wanted to gripe, and to the people about to watch, you better enjoy the game for me.
