I think Essien would have made a big difference to them.

Definitely, he'd improve most sides in world football, but I think the midfield have still looked strong TBF. It's up front they're a little lacking IMO. Gyan gets himself into plenty of good positions but doesn't bury enough. They just need someone prolific, like an Emile Heskey type.

I'd have been very happy winning the World Cup without beating the Argies or the Germans. Wouldn't have made it any less meaningful to me.

BTW Shakira or Abby Clancy? It's a tough call!

Shakira. I bet she can ride like a rodeo queen.

Think I would have to agree with you there

Glad I have got tickets for the England vs Aus one dayer at OT on Sunday, so I can avoid the whoppers coming out with songs like the above during England vs Germany.

Didn't Heskey have one of his better games against Germany once upon a time?

The 5-1 demolition.... I seem to remember him running them ragged and actually popping up with a goal!

Very difficult game for us in round two, but what an epic match it should be. The World Cup is alive for us now, the big games are here. No excuses now, the players HAVE to perform and I think we will. Whether we'll have enough I don't know, but we must fight hard and give a spirited display. I just hope we don't lose on penalties again, I'd be heartbroken.
