'Beat' Takeshi is an all rounder. Takeshis Castle is genius.

I'm having a really hard time putting my Gunner's season into words:

At Times - Brilliant
At Times - Embarassing

I've about had it with the Van Injured and Adewantmore pairing, I want to see more Bendner Vela Nasri and Wilshire

Hull City fans should be on top of the world right now and rightly so. Certainly not gonna take that away from you! Even though it would be possible to pick at the performances against Arsenal, Spurs and Newcastle as many people are the results should be all that matters to Hull fans. At least for now.

So Englands performance was curious today. We did'nt play well yet we won 5-1. Heskey was very good in 2nd half and deserved a goal. Maybe we over analyse too much. 3 points and top of the group. Why complain? (but we will ;)

No complaints here...I'll take the points over play at this stage.

We can leave all the flashy stuff for when we slaughter Brazil in the Final. ;)

A 5-1 scoreline always looks good, bugger how it came about frankly. Good to see Mr. Wigan AFC himself (Heskey) still reeling in the caps as well

The most important thing at this stage is a result and securing 3 points which has been done. The only real test so far has been Croatia and we couldnt have played any better realistically. Securing top of the group and performing in the bigger games come the end of the qualifying stages will be satisfactory but I still cant stop questioning the performances in the last 2 games. Yes, they were both results but if we play like that against better opposition rather than like we did against Croatia we'll get hammered.

We'll see what happens I guess, but just remember where we were at this stage when ginger twatface was in charge. Every reason for optimism IMO

We could argue that we are not playing to our full potential and still getting results. England fans are born pessimists I think. We are making progress and that is all that you can ask for.
