笑, which is Japanese for LOL.

A very good sentiment that I agree with wholeheartedly.

So Yaya, Milner and Joe can all join Silva on holiday in he Canaries now.

This is actually panning out very well for our attacking line, they should be ready to go from the first game onwards - I'm worried about our defence for the early part of the new season though - our Argies plus our captain are likely to be in Brazil for a while longer.

[Tokyo Blue]

Oh well.

[Saul Goodman]

Hart looked poor. Hodgson brought on too many players that all wanna play in the middle. England could've used Milner today.

Damn, our preseason tour of the US could have some big players. Only Dzeko, Kompany, and the Argies remain

[phips]

Belgium captain Vincent Kompany has suffered an injury setback three days out from their World Cup clash with Russia.

The Manchester City defender missed training on Thursday with a "slight groin strain", Belgium coach Marc Wilmots said.

Wilmots wrote on his official Twitter account: "No @ VincentKompany at training today, slight strain in the groin. He is working individually with medical staff!"

It won't have those players. They'll get extra time off I believe.

Where to start?

1) You lose to the worst italian time ever and congratulate yourself how well you played
2) As above and keep an unchanged team
3) 3 of the back 4 should not be playing international football - Cahill and Hart must hae thought they were playing alone
4) Terry and Cole should be there
5) Rooney is a waste of a place even though he scored a tap in
6) Gerrard is gone
7) It cried out for width but he ended up with 3 players all playing in the same place in the centre
8) Anyone who saw Milner play against Bayern and Barca could not possibly leave him unused

That's what I would've thought but there was that thing on here about Silva joining the squad for the US tour so I assumed the rest would do the same

Argentina v Iran, this could get Messi ;-)

[Cit.revenge]

Aguero is nowhere on WC

[Ted Hughes]

According to Clive Tyldesley the Iran players have their 'christian names' on their shirts.

[twosips]

Aguero disappointingly being a bit of a prick there tbh..

[Cit.revenge]

This Iran is Horror for WC Stoke times 2 under pulis

[Ted Hughes]

The service Aguero has had do far in this competition, is worse than he would get playing for England.

Not even close so far

[Cit.revenge]

Argentina do not have midfield and Messi is bored , run just 3 km in first half

[twosips]

Messi has been a disgrace so far to be honest. Lazy and half-arsed display. It's criminal from someone so talented.

[Cit.revenge]

Argentina is shit really
