Sruon: See? lol! :D

I don't know what to say. England is really fucked.

[Wintermute]

Did Rooney call out the fans for Booing them? Didn't quite catch it on ITV.

[Not not Mattaru]

I can feel the winds of change coming, wait, never mind that was just a collective sigh from across the Atlantic.

SPREAD IT!

Wintermute: I think he said something "hear that? that's the fan's booing.... " something like that

Yeah, "Nice to see your home fans booing you", pretty much.

[Doombear]

They just need to cancel Group C. "Sorry guys, we have talked it over and none of you deserve to move on."

[Pendulum]

And what does he expect? Those people have spent so much to fly to South Africa, buy expensive tickets and sit in the cold watching 90 minutes of spineless football. They are well entitled to boo.

haha, yeah I'd be inclined to agree there.

[Flarega]

Probably the best result possible for USA, they just need to actually win one now.

[volcanicweather]

I personally cannot wait for when the demise of Wayne Rooney happens. It will be awhile, but when it does happen, it will be awesome.

Why all the seeded teams are sucking, Portugal, Spain, Germany, England WTF! If I were a die hard soccer fan and flew to south africa for the game, I will feel terribly cheated

It is because now if they just draw vs Algeria, they will more thank likely still go through as long as England draws or loses Slovenia thanks to goals scored (US currently has 3, England 1). It won't even be a factor if England loses.

Why you hatin?

Anyway, england played terrible, the tactics really need to be revised, at this point i think he should try out 4-4-1-1. Playing gerrard just behind rooney, barry and lamps in the middle, J.cole and whoever on the wings.

Really need a win next. grr.

[Not not Mattaru]

Why you hatin?

Because Rooney looks like a disgruntled man-baby. Just sayin'

Joshing aside, sucks England lost.

EDIT: I mean tied, but yeah.

[idklol]

Yeah i am quite embarassed to be an England fan at the moment. I dunno what the fuck is up with the team but something needs doing and fast.

And as for the seeded teams not doing so great, even Argentina and Brazil aren't doing amazing but they do look far superior to the European teams. Even Uraguay look better than most of them.

Germany was awesome in their first match and got a crappy ref in the second who sent off Klose for no real reason, I'd say that's far from "sucking".

Switzerland played very well and Spain was pretty unlucky to lose that match honestly. They deserved at least a draw. Again, lose 1 match and now you suck? I don't get the logic.

Portugal sucked in qualifying so it's not a surprise honestly. They are overrated just like France. Move on.

England is the biggest surprise imo. They dominated in qualifying and got off to an early lead in the first match. I think Capello messed with the psyche of his side by pulling Green for James after players came out and openly supported Green. Makes it seem like he doesn't support the viewpoint of his players and I think made them afraid to do wrong as shown by the hesitant nature of some players today.

US In = US Win or US Tie + Slovenia Win
TBD = US Tie + England Tie
US Out = US Lose or US Tie + England Win

From a purely statistical standpoint its 50% of all situations we're in, 50% we're out.

I'll laugh if it goes to a Ballot Draw if the planets align and US and England both draw at just the right (wrong?) goal difference?

[Tyche]

Is this the US scenarios? I think I got this right.

1. US wins, they advance.
2. US loses, they don't advance
3. US ties and SVN/ENG ties, the US has to score at least 1 point less than ENG (in the final game, as they have a +2 point adv right now) to advance...
4. US ties and SVN wins, US advances
5. US ties and ENG wins, US fails to advance.
