Aha. Nice post.

He's had three good chances, but they've all been 1 on 3 or so. He scored the one, that's enough imo.

It was classic. Shrugged off the defender like sending a child to his room

I think that the referee was waiting for Skrtel to commit a foul, there is only one place [up for grabs] at the World Cup. Why should Slovakia go there, when we have England in the group? Of course they will always prefer the stronger team. Probably the referee exactly knew how to do it.

Interesting article about the FIFA rankings and why the Welsh and the Romanians are geniuses.

Apologies if it's been posted already.

Netherlands and Italy played rankings suicide by arranging friendlies against the likes of Indonesia, San Marino and Haiti in 2013.

Most big countries don't care about rankings and their FAs would prefer the money friendlies bring in.

It worked for Wales because the team picks itself and no one was going to friendlies anyway (some players included).

So I guess Canada can make the Hex if they beat an already-eliminated El Salvador in Vancouver and makes up a -5 GD to Honduras, who play at the Azteca
