You confident Abu? The UAE team were brilliant in qualifying.

Well I'd be disappointed with anything less than a quarterfinal.
This team had huge support from the FA and responsible people, something said not to be shown anywhere else in the world.
If Asian form was to be followed, I expect a very good run.

England are producing neat tidy players & solid-ish defenders but very few real attacking stars because the accent is on coaching little kids to do a job in teams rather than producing skillful flair players. The so called skill players we do produce like that overrated raglet Fabien Brandy are just not quite up to the level required. We're mostly producing generations of what Eric C*****a would call 'water carriers'.

I'd have more respect for your opinion if you have phrased it better. Next time you make a mistake at work I hope someone comes and tells you how shit you are. It's one thing calling a first team member rubbish but criticizing the lads in this way is just crass.

Adam Clayton played an ok game nothing outstanding but nothing bad. All the City lads accounted themselves well though Trippier had a poor night with his crossing as did Paul Marshall. Mee played well and Nimely had to live off a scraps. This experience is only good for the young lads. Well done to them.

It's a sad day when you cannot speak your mind on this forum. That's what came to my mind and that's what I posted. How's this.

Clayton was world class.

I hope you have a massive erection now.

You really are a bit silly.

I don't disagree with having an opinion or disagreeing with others, it's just that you lack the ability to put it across very well..

Why couldn't you have just said that you felt he didn't have a good game. Is that beyond your linguistic ability? He is after all a product of the academy and I for one would prefer to support our youngsters with positive criticism.

Let me ask you this.

When someone uses the word 'motherfucker' do you think they are actually inferring fucking one's mother?

Do you take everything so literal?

We got exactly the same problem here (only in smaller scale of course). The emphasis on training the young players is so heavily on next game or season or whatever that overall developement of individual talents tends to get pushed behind. I'm sure it has lot to do with Finnish mentality of "working hard for the team" being a virtue here but truth is that hinders th progress of technically gifted talent and we end up producing decent defenders and goalkeepers and some defensive midfielders but few if any decent attacking players.

Dutch, who are masters at producing skillfull players, place little or no emphasis on competitive side of the game until the players are on their late teens. Until then they are encouraged to hone their individual skills even if overall team performance suffers. Furthermore, there young players are played all across the park in youth football whereas here, and I suspect in England as well, they give you a position early on and that's where you tend to stay until you grow up.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

I don't understand what point you are trying to make whatever it is you're doing it very badly. I just don't believe in slagging of products of our own academy who are trying their best to represent themselves, their club and their country. Why don't you try being a bit more tolerant in your comments.

The word you are actually looking for is 'implying'. But I think that you still have more important things to learn about life than that, Edge.

Inferring is fine.

No it's not, at least if you want to be correct.

# infer - deduce: conclude by reasoning; in logic

Seems fine to me.

Can I take it then that you can't take criticism? How would Clayton feel then reading your comments?

Have an opinion yes but when it relates to the young lads from the academy then try to keep it in perspective.

P.S. Were you meaning your last comment literally? If yes, then sadly, I'll have to decline.
