[Football] *** Official Match Thread*** Uruguay vs England

[wakeytom]

Brilliant positioning and finishing by a striker much shorter than Jagielka and Cahill.

Welbeck carrying on the Alex Ferguson inspired diving - just get on with it, and follow Sturridge's lead.

Who has been diving all over the place?

 

[The Wizard]

Dreadful defending, absolutely dreadful.

 

[Bry Nylon]

45 minutes to stay in the world cup. Two goals needed, and none against.

What changes would you make at half time?

 

[Simster]

These corners are an embarrassment.

 

[brakespear]

rooney off please.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Come on now chaps. We're by far the better side so far.

Really? This is first England game I have watched in years and it's ****ing rubbish.

Uruguay, 9 fouls, one every 5 minutes - dirty ****ers.

Most of the time they are just playing strong, which most of the England team seem to be more bothered with going down when any contact

The Ox for Sturridge, Lambert for Henderson, play with the one defensive midfielder (Gerrard), drop Rooney back a bit.

You're not wrong there. Park standard football.

Baines poor

And this.

 

[carteater]

It's okay, Uruguay were 1 nil up against costa rica at the end of the first half too

 

[Weststander]

Tyldesley and Townsend being very kind to Jagielka. Looked naive to say the least with the goal.
Shame that Roy Keane's no longer with ITV - he would have brutally ripped that defending apart at Half Time.

 

[W.C.]

Average. Very very average.

 

[The Wizard]

Baines & Jagielka are both awful.

 

[seagulls4ever]

Sturridge needs to pass more. Rooney looks like our most likely goalscorer at the moment.

 

[Horsham Gull]

tyldesley and townsend being very kind to jagielka. Looked naive to say the least with the goal.
Shame that roy keane's no longer with itv - he would have brutally ripped that defending apart at half time.

instead we will have to put up with poyet looking smug
