How does TGSTEL not get into your first team?

How did England's savour Townsend do? Mate watched the game and says he was a one trick pony, like a slightly improved version of Aaron Lennon.

From what I have read, and I haven't seen the game, Townsend was one of England's better players.
Personally, I think Townsend doing well for England is good for us. Will hopefully mean that Walcott feels he needs to perform to nail down that spot for next summer.

The decision to extend the ballon d'or is a freaking joke. All so that ronaldo can win.

Indeed. Best footballer in the world.

Maybe you should start watching some football which isn't Arsenal, Gus. You are just making a fool of yourself with comments like that.

I don't rate him highly but he was as dangerous as anyone on the pitch. Attracts 3 men to him as he can run with the ball. His passing is dire though

Perhaps why he rarely attempts to pass! 🙂

Surely the beginning of the end for him now. His agent should certainly start considering Marco's options. With his wacky hairstyle and boyish features, I can easily see him presenting a German version of 'Strictly' by 2016. He even has the name for it. 'Marco'. But Townsend will probably beat him to that too.

NZ was unlucky in the sense that they met an opponent who should have been the strongest of their region. Had it not been Graham Zuzi, you guys might be playing Panama or Honduras, which are very winnable games. Or had it been like 4 years ago when you guys draw the asian region, Jordan/Uzbek would be very beatable especially the former.

True, and it was Panama until they conceded 2 goals in injury time in the last game against the US! Still don't think NZ would have beaten them but I do think it could have been a bit closer than 9-3. If it had been an Asian opponent like 4 years ago, I think they would have beaten Jordan.

As for the "you guys" though, I'm English and don't support NZ, just live here. Although it would have been nice to see them do a bit better. 😉

Am i mistaken in thinking you were relocating to Burnwinterland last year?

I was seriously looking into it when I was out of work, and asked Burnsy and co for advice, but then ended up getting a permanent job here. It's still an option for the future though.

Think it's mainly cos nobody gives a feck and they've had so few ballots submitted.

Awards schawards. Messi is clearly the most talented player in the world

No doubt - but did he have the best calendar year? I thought that was the purpose of the award! Personally, I'd rank Ribery over him for the year, heavily taking into account what his team managed to win.

🙂 No more pesky lousy tedious nuisance international breaks until March 2014.

The Germans were asking for Rooney's and Townsend's shirts.
