I can't actually believe that Woy would start Rooney over Kane or Vardy. It would be insane.

He can't drop his captain or whatever.

Kyle Walker is the best right back in the Premier League not named Seamus Coleman.

i guess if i had to make that 23 i'd drop delph, rooney and rashford? idk

Barkley has been hot garbage for the past three months. Andros Townsend is Andros Townsend.

You know Rooney is on the plane unless his knee explodes.

Wilshere - Has he even played a full game since the WC? Bringing these kinds of permacrock luxury players in a vain hope he won't have his career ruined by a leg-breaking Skrtel tackle 5 minutes after being subbed in with all your subs used up is v. stupid and the kind of move that COULD cost England the tournament.


Ahahahahahahahahahaha. There's no way England are winning anything.

I'm glad we decided to take a 4th choice centre forward who can't play out wide just in case. Big club mentality alive and well.

England are so bad I'm not even sure who you're referring to.

Yeah Iceland are going to play in exactly the same way as the teams we've struggled to beat and it's going to be all the more embarrassing when we slip up against them.

Hey. Newsflash, idiot. None of this matters. Kane, Rooney, Walker and everybody else could have played the game of their lives and England would still have lost. Lost at sea? Little boy doesn't know what happened? Little white boy went to mass and never educated himself on the world's real religion? One word, buddy: karma. Ever heard of it? What goes around comes around, in common parlance for the less educated. The truth is, after the Iceland Portugal match, the English fans made a fool of themselves, celebrating the draw as if they themselves had won anything. They got off by kicking the Portuguese when they were down, making brutal fun of them for only getting a draw against lovely Iceland, I've tried to get over it but there were a lot of hurt feelings and nasty trolling. I'm not saying any names but let's just say you could look into the eyes of some of these England fans and see the pleasure they were getting from the misery the Portuguese fans were going through. Thankfully Brahma is fair and he made sure those people got their just desserts. The same thing happened to USMNT fans who also made fun of Portugal, then they lost 4-0 to Argentina, and also to Colombia, also last year they lost against Panama and Jamaica and that's the kind of shame you can never live down. If these fans had behaved properly and not gloated on the suffering of others, they would now be celebrating major wins for their teams. Instead, they're crying and whining about players or Roy or whatever without realizing they are a infinitesimal part of the milk sea of souls, and no good deed goes unpunished. Anyway, my friend kwagga told me all this stuff and he's brown so it must be true. Namaste.

He's still in charge of the USA and is a bad manager, the USA being bad notwithstanding.

If you want more of the same for England hire Klinsmann!
