Is Albelda injured? I presume that is why he came off after half an hour.

yeah cesc on for him...

don't like spains system... raul, villa and torres all playing so no width and getting outfought in the middle.. they'll win no doubt but it may just be a surprise in the making here

NI 3-2 Spain. MUhahaahhahahahahahaha

Easy Frank...

You might start a riot with that talk

Sorry.

how did "El Red Nino" play, compared to the Spanish team as a whole? (I am assuming nobody played well for them)

he was sh¡te

Did you watch the match Frank?
did you notice J Evans?

i saw bits and pieces as my main focus was on england but tried to keep an eye on torres he is injured now so i don´t know how that affected him. didn´t really notice any ni players specifically

Can't believe you didn't go for the ol' "the ball is round" remark. Missed opportunity!

huh.... Are the Dutch still unbeaten in their group??????? I thought we were bottom of the table because the Dutch crowd are completely in panic at the moment and most of them want Van Basten to be sacked...

But why????????? I don't really know

Could anyone help me, and tell me on what channel the Sweden-Spain Euro qualification match is going to be played? I would like to watch it together with a Spanish friend of mine

2desertwalker: I hope for your sake you didn't find the channel - watch a Spain match with a Spaniard and they go uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuy every time La Armada Invencible get within 20 yards of the opposition goal. :-D

Israel 2:4 Croatia

Wow! Croatia won. This is not a good result for England's cause. I think it'll be very difficult for England to win in Israel, and I don't see Israel seeing themselves losing two straight at home. This Croatia win may have KO England from the Euro 2008 altogether.

wishful thinking puro

We will see You could be right though

Is been a long time since I read anything about the English team, so anyone here can tell me how the team is doing in the Euro qualification? Or about the new coach, how he is dealing the players and the media, are you guys excited with 2008?

Holly crap, I now saw what Puro posted!
I thought that England was doing fantastic with the English coach, what went wrong?
