Don't be such a typically english, rampaging arse
be proud of your football team, they got into the top 16 teams in the world, and for that they deserve at least some recognition.

Then again your team was woefully inept too.
The sides were almost well matched, it was just that the Kaiser's Head First Team were slightly better than the Queens Arms. Luckily most of them should be retired or in the championship next time.

It doesn't matter how well our football teams play
The Fatherland is still the strongest economy in Europe, and this makes us the only real winners to have emerged from good old WWII

They weren't well matched at all
England had a period of about twenty minutes where they strung together a few passes and looked a bit dangerous, but the defence was non existent and Rooney clearly isn't as good an international player as his club form would imply.

Can you honestly say Germany were that much better?
Good enough to qualify the scoreline granted. It was a shite match though.

I thought it was a good match to watch actually
And Germany were very solid in defense. So yes, I can say the German were that much better. They should have scored two or three times in the first twenty minutes and when we were 2-0 down we were lucky not to be a lot more.

'DEFENSE'???

Yes it's the opposite of causing offense

Doesn't matter how shit Germany were
We were worse. They had enough ability to pass around our defence and create, and take advantage of, chances. They had had three shots on goal in the first twenty minutes. We had that many in the entirety of the first half. Germany could get through our defence at will and were given acres of room to do it with.

Pretty pathetic for a team that are comprised of the best players we have.

Yeah
We could have done with some of the ability they showed in the qualifying rounds. It wasn't there. Rampaging arse or not, you only need to have eyes to appreciate that the team that was out there an hour ago was not the team it should have been. They have been abysmal all throughout the competition and only got into the last 16 because their group was comprised of three team that somehow managed to be worse than us, even then we only got through almost by default.

Cheer up, kleine Frauleine
it's not the most important thing in the world
(Bret Mong Keys Eggs has wet his weapon, Sun 27 Jun 2010, 17:55, Reply)

It's not,no
It's annoying that we have all these players who are capable of competing at European level for their clubs, who then completely fall apart the minute they put a white or red shirt on. It's a shame and it happens every single time.

The problem is they aren't team players
they are mostly a bunch of massive cunts who seem to have this sense of entitlement that they should perform at the top level of international football but without bothering to display the skill and character of someone at that level.
