Anyone know who the commentator was for the French/Switzerland game earlier today? The northern bloke, I mean.

Mick McCarthy

Well the Brazil Croatia game was a right let down. Been looking forward to this game all week

same here, I was really dissapointed, and I had Ronaldo as my captain in my dream team, thinking he would bag a good few in the tournament, but now I am not so sure.......

They looked like one of those Masters teams, I hardly think the likes of Argentina will be worried by Roberto Carlos and Cafu weezing their way up and down the wings Emerson kicking everything including his team mates and the barrel up front, admitedly they may worry about Adriano, Ronhaldinho and Kaka.

might as well have been in a cave for all the WC i seen in the past few days but got back last night to watch the Brasil game and thought it was a great game and so unlucky on Croatia that they didn't get a draw.. Brasil didn't look like a great side but unlike England think they will show signs of improvement

as for commentators can we please get rid of David Pleat.. he can't pronounce anything correctly and everything he says is a load of rubbish too

Agree with you about Pleat.

I wish someone would tell that bloke, there is more than one team in Manchester. Everytime I hear him refer to Man U, he simply calls them "Manchester".

Here's another one..

'Klose scored three in Germany's opening game of the last World Cup and he's done exactly the same this time, scoring two

I get this feeling that Sven is on a mission to prove the FA wrong and that if England win The World Cup, two fingers will follow.......
Check out the News conference: Sven-Goran Eriksson link in the report below.
I have never seen Sven quite in this mood before

What planet is this man from? England were booting the ball up the park, giving it to the opposition. Against a poor side...

I think he quoted stats from the game as England had a poor second half display against Paraguay, who actually are not a bad side, I seem to remember that they beat Brazil the last time the two teams met.

Anyway, it was nice to see Ronaldo of Brazil yesterday trying to emulate Ruud Van Nistelrooy's performance for the Dutch side, in fact I think he accomplished it quite well
