England v Portugal - Page 3

To me Rooneys stamping looks intentional. He looks down and the ball is rolling away from Carvalho. His body weight is on his right foot, but he thrusts his left foot in Carvalho`s groin completely unnecessary. The Norwegian commentators thought the same and Norway is the the most anglophile nation on earth when it comes to football. Rooney is a good player, but he is also a thug.

He better start to grow up, and fast, if he dose not he will go down the road of self destruction.

Well if that's the case, Rooney will be beating up his girlfriend or wife, getting drunk and eating a lot of fast food. May even take drugs, go on the waggon and fall off the waggon a few times and when he's all washed up write his autobiography, and make a cool million from the book sales.

Let's hope that Rooney does not become a second George Best or Paul Gascoigne at the end of his career

Even with Lennon on the field and Mick Jagger in the audience, England could not get rid of the penalty hex. I almost suffered a heart attack over the week-end with those 2 penalty shootouts. So the story continues: world cup 1998 Agentina-England, Beckham sent off, extra-time, penalty shootout lost by England,
world cup 2006 Portugal-England, Rooney sent off, extra-time, penalty shootout lost by England.
I will never again make jokes on penalty shootouts.

Anybody noticed the other England-supporting celebrity that was shown on tv in several close-ups?
Probably not, but that was Campino, singer of the German punk/rock band "Die Toten Hosen"= "The Dead Pants", German slang expression for "nothing going on here", "it is all dead pants here".
His mom is English, that is why he supports the 3 Lions and his dad was a chief judge at the administrative court in Düsseldorf. It makes sense, that it was his fate to become a Punkrocker.

Practically inevitable.

We can't even claim we're getting better at it

The perfect epitaph for England's campaign

Hey, I think the England team are good at one thing. They do the best resignation speeches. That statement by Beckam hit the mark.

Just because he's the highest paid footballer in the world, got a sexy pop star wife, can command the front page of every magazine just by having breakfast, doesn't mean he doesn't believe in old fashioned "dull" values like duty, working hard and wanting to do well for his team.
