Martinez is claiming that all the players he left out are not fit. Wonder how many will be back for the last 16?

Ok....but Brazil rather than Sweden/Switzerland in Q4?.

As opposed to Belgium, who have achieved objective number one by racking up two cheap bookings and ensuring a draw will get them what they want. i.e Columbia followed by Sweden/Switzerland.

I've seen many a healthy bird taken by cats. They are opportunist.

Can we have details of the swathes involved? Is it the financial/service sector which accounts for 80% of our GDP? Is it manufacturing, which is 10% of our economy? Is it the number of Britons at risk of poverty? Is it the retail sector, where 75% of what we sell is made overseas.? Or is it the...

So bad, I started to get suspicious that it was deliberate.

27 seconds wasn't it.? After beating the French 3-1, I really fancied us. Then I saw Brazil and thought...."ah, perhaps not ".....and then Paolo Rossi came along and spoilt the samba party.

Ssssh....he has a fan club on here.

The game is all about opinions. I don't rate the guy. His game goes to pieces at international level, when there is more pressure on him. He is lucky at the moment as he has very little competition for that kind of role.

Not talking club football.....talking international level.

What, Tunisia was a difficult game? They were very ordinary and should have been beaten by 3 or 4. Wait until we play Belgium. His pace means he fits into the City style. The world class players that surround him means that he can feed off all the four yard tap ins that their brilliant approach...

....so the complete inability to make the right decision at the right time, appalling first touch and unawareness of those around him ,will suddenly correct itself when he has more space. I agree that it was totally the wrong game for him. He shouldn't be anywhere near an England shirt, ever. He...

Says he has no plans to retire ( looks bloody good for his age ). Would imagine he will do specialist documentaries/reports etc. He has done them before.

Well....if you can call 79 nearly 90....fair enough.

Do Turkeys vote for Christmas? When you have a massive bureaucratic gravy train to jump aboard and earn enormous salaries for a few hours consultative work, its hardly surprising. Or be made a European Minister and put in the occasional appearance to ensure you claim vast expenses plus a six...

There are skilled engineers all over the world. The only trouble is that we are forced to concentrate on recruiting mainly from within the EU. Its called protectionism.

In 1966, the War was still only 20 odd years back and there was still a feeling of the Union all pulling together. Our football was almost entirely made up of English, Scots, Welsh and Irish. There was much less jingoism around. You hardly saw a flag of St George anywhere. It was difficult for...

Only seen one car flag so far. Seen more of those ridiculous, outsized and ancient Red Noses on front grills, than England memorabilia.
