    I know he aint everyone's cup of tea but really like Wellbeck. Re Baines crossing in the first half he bent a lovely near post cross in that defender did well to clear for a corner with Wellbeck right behind him. Can't have NLA and Nicholas criticism,thought he struggled second half when the tempo dropped.

    he has done well like the last tournament we go in with low expectations and see where it takes us

    townsend
    wellbeck
    sturridge
    Lambert
    chamberlin

    all have come in and shown what they can do

    the back 4 is a concern

    smalling
    cahill
    jagelka
    baines
    cole
    Jones

    are all capable if coached and played right

    looking forward to it

    add in

    gerrard
    lampard
    carrick
    Wiltshire
    Rooney

    we can have a good go if we play with the freedom and lower expectations

    Not a fan of Welbeck but he worked his nuts off tonight.

    It's so easy to dig out England when they don't play well so I hope they get a lot of praise for tonight, without going over the top. Thought the tempo, interplay and desire was top drawer.

    Gerrard had a good game tonight.

    Lets not get our hopes up though, we should've been miles clear in this group looking at the teams. Hoping for SFs with a good draw.

    Terrible composure at times though, could've scored at least twice tonight.

    And credit Poland and their fans. Not their fault that the FA are a bunch of useless self-serving twats.

    Credit!? They whistled our national anthem and all our possession in the first half. Credit my arse! I'd be willing to give them credit if they respected our anthem as we did theirs, and concentrated on cheering their own team.

    Yeah It's weird. Does Brazil have different time zones. Most places are -4 GMT.

    1. Brazil must have different time zones - it's a huge country.

    2. It cannot be compared to Mexico regarding time zones. Firstly it's on a different continent, and secondly, and more relevantly, it's far further east and so closer to European time zones.

    It's -3 hours. So a game starting at 5pm here would be 2pm over there.

    Brazil is going to be fantastic, its going to be a proper World Cup - unlike the farce in Qatar and even - to some extent - in South Africa.

    Game times are going to be great for the UK and not too bad for us Oz folks, probably be on at 5AM, 7AM and 9AM which are OK.

    That's right. All World Cups should be played in real footballing nations. In fact I personally believe that you should have to win a World Cup in order to earn the right to host it. Funny how the Eurovision song contest can get something right that FIFA get so horribly wrong.
