England squad

[Bodhi]

If the Italian teams' tactics were a computer program, this is what it would look like:

while (defend == true) {
if (playerInBox) {
dive;
stretch_out_arms_while_flat_on_arse;
beg_for_penalty;
if (penalty_not_given){
harrass_referee;
sulk_like_girls;}
else {
score_penalty;
move_all_behind_ball;
bore_to_death(all);
}
}

I'm in stitches I really am. And if you knew Michael Owen's reputation on the continent for being a diving bastard you'd be in stitches too.


Argentina game anyone?

Hahaha.. Yeah, he can be just as bad, dive wise, as the worst of them. I have relatives in Spain who say that he is renowned for diving (Not that the Spanish really give two shits about Owen anyway).

Yep, Beckhams penalty against Argentina was the result of an Owen special. However, after the 'Hand of God' incident, I think the two sides are now even.

Ledley King is poo.

Ledley King is useless, he was walked all over by Terry Henry twice last season, i'd prefer to see Martin Keown in the squad.

..

Ledley has played against Henry 8 times in his career and Henry has only ever got one goal against a team with him in.

When he's in a team with good players he's great, and on his day he's great for Spurs.

He'll probably be dropped if Terry is fit for the next game but I think anyone would be hard pushed to say he doesn't deserve to be picked.

A few more performances like that in this tournament and we'll probably not be seeing much of him at White Hart Lane next season

I'm looking forwards to the Italy Denmark game even more now
