Re: MERGED - Euro 2004
Pah i am disgusted at how easy a fellow Welshman/Kinsman can be bought to change loyalties for the sake of a few rep points.
Now where did I put that image of a certain Mod/Admin with Policeman and a Sheep.
How dare you betray your land of Wales for a meagre rep points.
PS for 10 reps I will post the above image when he is not looking.
As for the game well nothing spectacular against a 2nd rate Croatian side with a 2nd choice Goalkeeper.
In fairness Rooneys goals were good but the defence has a lot to answer for.
Portugal will be a different matter.

No no no, just keep in mind how they are relying on a WELSHMAN for their own success....

Yes but if this English jonah decides to watch on Thursday all your efforts will be for nowt.
Anyway I reckon the kudos goes to Wayne Rooney.  Hope he keeps it up and doesn't end up doing a George Best.
Incog.

2nd rate eh? Well, what would you say about the 2nd rate Croatian's game against the French? Croatia are not a bad side, and they battled to the end even when they needed 3 goals.
If you knew anything about football, you would recognise this. Stick to sheep shagging!!!
And Portugal haven't been that impressive so far. In fact, no team has. Their biggest threat has got to be Ronaldo (from ManU). Figo is playing about as bad as Beckham. We do need Becks and Owen to wake up though.

Re: MERGED - Euro 2004
was a good game last night but we still didn't play that great. The good thing is none of the other teams have either.
Still playing too narrow and Becks is meant to play on the right wing not run into Lampard Scholes and Gerrard in the middle.
What i notice about Sven is that when ever we win he always says it must have been a great game never we need to work on a few things, i'm not happy etc.. That is the difference between him and Fergie \ Wenger.. last night they wouldn't have been happy and would look into areas that need improving.. it's why they are winners.. Sven just seems to read the Sun and say oh i'll pick Roonney.. better give Thompson a try on the left etc.

Yes. No one has stood out so far. One of the most open Euro championships there's been.

Thought Scholes is better in the middle, pushed up front a bit. Him and Gerrard should swap more. Lampard had a good game, even ignoring his goal.

Not sure. It depends what he says behind closed doors I suppose. He seems to have settled on his first 11 and will probably stick with them whatever. In a way, this is a good thing. Stability is needed, but we do need our main players to now do something.

Re: MERGED - Euro 2004
Cole Backs His Hard Tackle To Stop Rampant Ronaldo
Ashley Cole admits that Ronaldo left him on his backside a few times the first time he came up against the Portuguese youngster - but with the two set to meet again in Thursday's quarter-final he says that one hard tackle usually takes care of him...
What do you reckon? If England are to win they need to stop Ronaldo and Figo

Ronaldo, definitely, but Figo? Nah. He's done nothing remarkable on the pitch so far (apart from look devastatingly gorgeous...)......

Re: MERGED - Euro 2004
He set up their goal against spain.
You still need to stop him, discount him because hes done nothing remarkable, and that will be the time he does do something remarkable!

So did Owen do the same yesterday for one of Rooneys goals, but I don't think the Portugeses' knees will be knocking about Owen..
Don't get me wrong, Figo is (well, can be) a superb player... I just don't think he's doing his best right now....

Re: MERGED - Euro 2004
I can see it bringing a few heart attacks that game... Ronaldo is simly awesome, and whenever he goes near our box I wont be watching, lol.
As for Figo.. he's done nothing at all.. Owen hasn't either, but you can't afford not to watch these players. It'l come for them sooner or later. Figo's arrogant anyway, the way he acts makes me think he thinks he's too good for them.
