An England game against Montenegro. This would be a commendable attempt to make the match more of a spectacle for TV viewers and advertisers.

shit, he should take to the field with his legs manacled together and a bottle in each hand in that case.

I would . It shows a lack of class. There are much better champagnes.

Montenegro winning might actually make it interesting.

Racist.

Might be quite funny I suppose. Sad to say I no longer give a flying fuck about England.

Nor did many of the players at WC2010.

I think this last World Cup was the final straw.

I do think the players "care" actually. I also think they believe that they are far more talented than they really are and as soon as this is exposed as utter shite they throw a hissy fit and try to make it look as though it must be someone elses fault.

Every tournament since 2004 ish I've gradually cared less and less about international football. Not just England really, all international football.

I think I hate England fans. That's my main problem with the national team - the fans. And the Munich players. Rooney mostly I suppose.

And I hate international breaks.

I support the teams with my favourite City players in them. I'm pretty keen on Belgium at the moment, cause I still like van Buyten as well. I might watch their game v Austria online on Tues as they really need to win. Sorry AJ, Joe etc.

i think they forget that they are good when they are familiar with the rest of their team, and are fooled into thinking they are good full stop. the england squad are comparative strangers, and tend to play as such, with roles unfilled at national level but occupied by talented foreigners at club level. we do have some good players, but not in every position, and not enough of them.

what happened to the "play the kids" idea that got bandied about after the summer humiliation?

My fondness and respect for JH grows every time I see him. I know we have many players right now that we can all dote on, but this guy is genuine and a professional. He loves Man City.

Exactly my thoughts listening to him after the game on Sunday Danny. He's blue to the core, bight and a very nice bloke. If he wasn't GK he'd be a perfect club captain.

After the FA cup an interviewer was asking how perhaps City are starting to give united a run in Manchester or some shit and Joe replied 'Oh look this isn't about united or Old Trafford whatever, this is about Man City winning with a great team and we plan to bring more.'

Totally deflected any chat about reds, this is Manchester City.

when i open the thread this is at the top of the current page. always makes me chuckle at how wrong one person can be.

i mean, seriously, i thought it'd be something like a mob actually killing a podiatrist in some horrific nonce offing gone wrong incident. but noooo....

£600,000 in 2006. my god did pearce do well there. all his transfer good luck balled into one player.

explains samaras really.
