I always thought international goals were just that little bit more hard to come by but here we go. From Soccerbase career goals per game at club level : Henry.........................0.51 per game Shevchenko.................0.57 per game Van Nistelrooy.............0.59 per game...

Prior to the World Cup : Henry.........................31 goals in 76 games 0.41 per game Shevchenko.................27 goals in 63 games 0.43 per game Van Nistelrooy.............25 goals in 49 games 0.51 per game Rooney......................11 goals in 29 games 0.38 per game...

8 goals in 18 competitive matches of which he certainly missed a couple. Shit really.

Fallacy = an idea that a lot of people think is true but which is false So tell me, which of his goals weren't really scored by him then ? You are a :jester: of the first order. Well done.

Whether about England or the Albion this is SOOOOO true. :clap: :clap: :clap:

Just keep winning games. There is enough second guessing going on without frigging about.

Our retreat after a goal mentality does trouble me greatly and whether Sven instils it or not he certainly doesn't stop it happening. The example of Hiddink is a very good one as he is constantly driving his team on by both his substitutions and general touchline behaviour. I hope not but do...

Absolutely. I don't see how anyone can put a negative spin on a striker scoring goals and clearly beoming more comfortable with being an England player. Owen ALWAYS delivers in big games, hopefully Rooney will recover for the knockout stages and Crouch will do whatever is asked of him like the...

Are you taking the piss ?

My apologies for raising such an eventuality. Here's to Chicken & Fine Wine.

:lolol: :lolol: What if there is no dinner ?

Hey Easy, It's gonna get worse. After we win the World Cup, she's gonna buy you 'Sven's Story' for Christmas.

As opposed to the simpler and slightly less controversial 'no, I don't think he is ready for such a test'. Your world is a dramatic one isn't it.

This thread is evidence that it is all going quite nicely from the producers point of view I think.

Being French might have made that a bit tricky.

Call Walcott a gamble, blind punt, whatever you like, there is nothing better out there. Yes, players do need to play a few international games before you can fairly judge them but in this particular case we know who will play up front. What we are looking for is a player who can make an impact...

After Owen, Rooney and Crouch I have seen Defoe, Bent, Ashton, Beattie, Johnson, Harewood amongst the many alternatives listed on this board. This tells me there is no standout alternative and yet you imply that it is clearcut. I would agree that another striker should go ( probably Defoe at the...

Easy, if Owen limps off to add to the Rooney injury then there is f*** all he could, would, will do to make the slightest difference to our chances of winning the world cup.

I was quite looking forward to seeing Carrick play there with the proper team to see what he could do. I also think that Hargreaves would do a good job there as well and I do agree with the point of view that says we should have seen this tried months ago. That said if you look at 1986 and 1990...

I think that is exactly it. I think he sees it entirely as a spoiler role who sits rigidly and gives the simple ball every time which is what Carragher would do. From what I have seen ( and I'll admit it won't be as much as others ) I don't think Carrick is the greatest reader of the game from a...
