    I agree with this...I wonder if he is wearing down since he has played quite a bit in the tournament and without playing much club ball. I would not mind sending Adu up top and just let him get the ball and run at the brazilians.

    That ball was in.....we dodged a bullet.

    But can't tell if the ENTIRE ball is behind the line......so it might not have been....

    This is where we need creative players who are comfortable on the ball. There is just way too many give aways at this point. Got to have the boys hold onto the ball a little longer.

    We can't give a quality side like Brazil with this many chances simply becuase they do not have to chase the ball.

    That was shades of Roy Carrol when he was at Manchester Utd.

    I will take it....I don't think Argentina is giving anything back to England for the hand of God goal.

    We got lucky, should've been a goal. I don't want controversy overshadowing this win (if the score holds up).
