Barry, what's your favourite whisky?

I am more a red wine man. Cannot beat a bit of Sauvignon Blanc.

Company (the way we use it in Jamaica) also means "the people you hang out with" sorry about that. Now that I think of it, I'm not sure if it's used like that internationally =/

That's very true though! England should definitely play to their strengths and the fact that they have big strong players is one of their strengths.

The face of football has been changing though. Brazil used to play "the beautiful game" where fouls were almost unheard of. England plays "the strong man's game" which is a toned down version of rugby.

The two views of "don't touch another player ever" and "if I play the ball first it doesn't matter if they go down" combined with the abundance of diving and such has brought tactics to be one of the greatest deciding factors in modern day football.

If England wants to be number one, they need to combine their main strength (physicality) with a clear and well-thought-out tactic.

The talent is there in abundance! They just need something else and they'll be awesome in the next WC.

It's Kompany, by the way. It's a name of German background, from the verb Kompanen - which is derived from the same root as Companion in english, so it sort of means friend. In a strictly non-sexual way you understand.

Cool, I didn't know that =P

i feel dirty

I actually laughed at that

I think if we bring in Delap and play Crouch and Huth and other players, we could win by setting pieces. Goals would be many but not many pretty. But goals are what is counting.

just testing here

Huth
--------------------------
He's french

Is Rory Delap close to 40, Arry Smith?

He's french

Think you will find he is German

He's french

please stop it.

Huth has an English dad though which is why he is called Robert because his dad's side is Robert but Mum's side is Huth so gets called Huth but with Robert too.

Barry's not German - Barry is Barryish

Yes I am Barryish. I am part Barry, part Smith. Your name is different to mine though I am guessing.

Huth is actually is actually Earthling but he choose to play for Germany as he wanted to be close to his family and not want to travel far distances playing against the dark side in the intercontinent cup

I just think we should go with our strengths and play Crouch, Heskey, Richards, Huth etc in the box and out power johnny foreigners. We would win the world cup pretty easily and goodly.

fletcher should play as well... he has grit

Is Johnny Foreigners not English then?

What?

you heard

England are COLD AS ICE! YEAH

No. But my dad was a shepherd once.
