We struggled to beat the Faroes in 2006! It was Georgia who beat us this time...

Allez Les Blues!

Very lackluster and disappointing effort for the Cup finals tbh. IMO the best player that I've seen constantly was Portugal's keeper though a couple of his nice plays were him out of position.

 

[Rams Until I Die]

Wow I can't believe they won it all.

To those who watched the recent Copa America, what did you think of Carlos "Chew" Bacca? As good as his goal scoring record suggests?

That would be a huge signing to go along with the extension for Payet
- Bacca looked great against the USA but who doesn't - please take Klinnsman to England, please

Cheers Dieter, sounds very promising if it comes off. As for Klinsmann, think you might be disappointed as BFS looks like he is odds on to get the job.

Why the fucking fuck is Big Sam getting the England job? I genuinely cannot think of anyone worse than him. His tactics are prehistoric and he's never had players of the England first team quality to work with... What the fuck can he possibly bring to the role?!

 

[ScotsRam]

Howe, Bruce and Hughes are more suitable English candidates and that's after about five seconds thought.

 

[Dieter the Brock]

Big Sam heh?
Suddenly English football is trying to avoid relegation? Sad day
A guy like Howe at least breathes life into your program

There are rumors on the Gunners network that Arsne has one year left and might be up for coaching England next.

 

[OldSchool]

This might have been killed though with his forcing Thierry to chose between his coaching the U21 or being on TV.

 

[OldSchool]

Yeah according to quotes from Arsne he wasn't comfortable with him coaching the club and then possibly be in a position to be critical of the players on TV. A pretty petty issue for him to force on Thierry but for 5 million a year he stayed with TV and went looking for other jobs. He's the one I want to succeed Arsne personally.
