Zamore on the bench, Crouch dident even make it there :005:
Injured i believe.
Hope BZ gets a decent run out.
I must say from a Fulham point of view Capello has been brilliant for England
England fans stuck outside of the stadium chanting "we want our money back".
England fans inside the stadium also chanting this.
:drums:
We've not been very good, have we?
Switzerland score after a freekick.
They deserve it.
England 0 - Switzerland 1
One down and quite frankly they deserve it.
Two down ffs
A hill to climb, it's becoming alpine!
A shoddy, shoddy goal. Stockdale for England?
England 0 - Switzerland 2
Fight back on...penalty to england
Goal 1-2 lampard
Poor Lampard penalty, but it goes in.
Why are we so crap at this level?
I wish I'd put on England not to win. The odds are always fantastic.

Milner's fault for cheating for the cross and diving out of the way of the ball.

On replay, yes, I agree - Milner's fault.
Zamora to come on and be man of the match anyone??
two stupid free kicks condeded; two simple goals scored as defenders watch. If I were Hart, I'd be suing his back four for non-support.
Who else is for Milner out at half time and Zamora in?
Young on for lampard. Only chance now for Bobby is to come on for bent or walcott.
Oh Ashley Young beautiful
2-2 Young
Keep the updates coming gents and I'll have a read in the morning. Sleeping pills are starting to kick in now so better head upstairs while I still can. Staff farewell (boozy) lunch tomorrow then Socceroos v Kiwis at 5pm. Could get messy but hope to have an entertaining day... :025: :039: :down_under: 078.gif

I know he seems to have a knack of scoring goals but bent is so poor technically as a player....cross just then from milner that bobby would have been all over like a rash...bent closes his eyes and jumps at the player instead?
Bz looked to be warming up quite intensively just now, heres hoping.
It is a cup tie you doughnut commentator, both teams need the win!
How poor has been Terry's passing and also Parker....oh and bent after that miss as I was typing.
Comedy miss from Bent.
Come on Zamora...
(Wilshire MOTM for me so far)

He does look good and that run and pass for Bent was quality.
No BZ today, downing on for walcott
Senderos has impressed today I think.
Even if Senderos was having a rough game he'd look like a legend compared to Djorou.
Gutted Bob hasn't made an appearance, he would have been ideal right now.
2-2.
Could have been worse.
Should have brought Zamora on.
"If Downing plays for England, why can't I?"
England fight to get back, dominate the first 20 minutes of the 2nd half, equalize, and then shut down. Has Roy already taken over the Three Lions?
Gutted Zamora didn't play.
Ooooh, Montenegro vs England, last qualifier. Could be tasty.
at least senderos had a decent game.
Downing always WAS a waste of space, still IS a waste of space and always WILL BE a waste of space.
Without wanting to be a troll or anything but "2-2 against Switzerland? Really?" The bits I saw the Swiss even dominated.

The Swiss dominated the first half, we probably played better in the second. Both sides could have had more goals. We didn't deserve anything more than a draw, despite Bent's missed chances.
What was the Belgium - Turkey match like yesterday (I watched Belarus - France, sorry!)? On paper I guess you could have done with a win - what do you think your qualification chances are now?
edit - also, after such a good season for Eden Hazard, do you think Dembele might struggle in future to get into the starting XI?

Simples, we should have won. We missed a penalty and dominated 90 minutes. The turks got 1 (one) chance and scored.
As far as Hazard goes, I think his career in the Belgian XI is yet again over. He wants the whole team to play for him rather than play in the team. He was invisible until he was substituted. His replacement played in the team and we were better again. Hazard went to take a shower and left the stadium before the game is over. Can't be bothered too much about him. Belgium needs workers, not arrogant French.
Should have brought Milner off & ZAMORA on!!
View from the stands:
We were lucky to get a point.
Bent can get bent.
Senderos looked good.
I got sunburnt.
I should be allowed to stick those blowy trumpet things up the kid behind me's arse if he doesn't shut up.
The traffic was 099.gif getting home.
Capello said that we were too tired to play well, but failed to bring on Bobby who ain't tired. :tom:
