im guessing your joking?

No? The ref was fantastic

Cole was my England MOTM. Official one was Nasri.

What'd the referee do wrong?

They shall not pass.



Shit saying, that was boring as fuck. That was always going to be the case with England.

You're joking right ?

Pleased with that result.

Almost nothing, hence why he was fantastic...I'm not being sarcastic

No, shall we?

England playing the Chelsea way. I guess Hodgson's done well to realise the limitations of his squad and make them play the only way that would see them not get destroyed. France did well and had complete control of everything. Once M'Vila is back they'll get even better and won't be as prone to counter-attacks. Definitely think they can win this tournament.

Shouldn't be calling someone a moron when you fail to grasp what being defensive is

The ref was poor, Favored the french. Unfair reffing.

9 men behind the ball all game for Ingalernd.

Diarra was immense IMO. Had England's entire midfield in his pocket for a lot of the second half.

Decent result, happy with that.

Err... Gerrard fouled on the edge of the area, Johnson fouled by Ribery. Cabaye committing 2 cynical fouls and not getting a yellow and then conceding another 2 fouls and still not getting a yellow card. Ox getting a yellow card for his first foul... Ref wasn't great.

Happy with the result not so much with the shit ref.

If France can play like that all tournament and bring in Koscielny, they will be incredibly tough to beat

Diarra was decent I thought. Looked like a standard black FUT CDM.

Take it from a neutral, the ref did great

Haha so you've heard the people can't handle being wrong.

What midfield ?

Lmao, I respect your judgement. Thought we could have won if Welbeck had exhibited any signs of quality.

People calling it the Chelsea way. Chelsea aren't the only team to have played counter attacking football and England player nowhere as near as deep as Chelsea did. I don't see why people slag it off, these counter attacking/boring teams always win the big competitions.

Diarra was good, but I think playing M'Vila instead of him will give Cabaye more of a chance to go forward and really cause some damage.

France seemed to be content with a draw for some reason.

Stop quoting SMU.

Yes, that's precisely what I've heard

Diarra had a great second half and was unlucky not to score in the first half.

England looked good when they kept the ball for those 2 minutes, but that might've just been the novelty of the situation appealing to me

Any French midfielder was going to do well against that English midfield, there's just a massive rift in quality. Diarra was a little poor with his passing and I think M'Vila would have been more comfortable. His marking was also poor for Lescott's goal.

Lol, I was unaware Chelsea invented Catenaccio

Funny the Greek is trolling despite his team being the worst in the competition.
