If Luis Suarez had got his transfer to Arsenal or, more to his liking, Barca or Real, then he still might have scored two last night. But he'd have done it with a limp because England had kicked him in the air a couple of times.

Steven Gerrard was not England captain last night, he was the Liverpool captain pretending to be England captain. It's going to be so funny if Suarez demands to leave Liverpool after the World Cup because Real Madrid want him.

Suarez is one if the best players in the world and he's a handful.
But the least I would have expected of the England defence was to know where he was at any time.
Letting him sneak round the back is pretty poor.
Spilt milk now ... come on Italy!

I hope Italy draw today to put England out of their misery.

I've already said that they will lose today, and just as I type this they are 1-0 down.

There is no way Italy will go for the win if it meant England staying in the tournament. All this talk about "European Brothers"......it's all bullshite lol.

Pretty much, LFC fans don't support England, he was keeping LFC fans happy, while at the same time doing his best to help their current 'God' through to the knockout stages.

They're not English, they're Scouse.

You're not suggesting that Italy would see us as a threat in the knockout rounds?

Nah, they just wanted to see us do one.

It makes for a good contest Italy vs Uruguay.
Personally I would like to see Suarez not qualify, so on that basis he probably will qualify.
At the same time I think Italy are ordinary.
They will be hoping for a draw ... yawn.

We may even pinch a point if Costa Rica rest some of their better players next Tues!
