Sadly..a team like portugal in the tournament. I don't think any one can go against them not even my spain :/

Sort out that grammar mate.

Yup, RUtube is shite. But Dailymotion's OK... try that one

are u serious, do you think wales would have played better with bale, ,football is a team game not a one man show

no s**t.. did arsenal do good without Van Pers? not really.. (once again... PERSONALLY!!!!!!!!!!)

Well, we can't face Germany, Holland etc because of how fifa seedings place teams in groups. We can only play who we are drawn against. A very professional job, missing a few players too. Yes, Wales are ranked very low, but this match was a potential banana skin due to a fierce rivalry between the two nations. You obviously have a very negative attitude towards the English, so I have a little bit of extra reading for you. And if you want to talk about foreign players, Messi is from Argentina, Ronaldo is from Portugal. Without those two players, La Liga would be ranked below the Bundesliga.

check this link out Catalunja.

Yeah i have to agree with gcopley here. If you look at the players who are performing in la liga the majority of them are also foreign, for example benzema, rossi, aguero and ofc messi and ronaldo. Every league has foreign superstars in it, its the way football is nowadays so saying that our league is "foreign" doesnt really merit much.

Let's also consider the nature of his comment. It sounds to me like you're bashing and criticizing an entire nation because they beat Wales. This is fairly derogatory towards Wales, indirectly of course, but what's most interesting is exactly what Gcopley replied to; are you actually asking why England doesn't take on other counties?

If nations got to just choose who they would play against, do you think they would actually retain the interest of winning if they were to challenge the best national squads in the world? If they didn't, does that mean ANYTHING?

EPL is a foreign league..we can continue to pretend that football isn't a world sport and that clubs don't look beyond their own domestic opponents to transfer players. That'd be quite boring to watch IMO. Uh oh, this year Rooney's on Chelsea, lets see how he does there! Oh looks like Drogba has completed a transfer to a League 2 side, let's see how that pans out!...no thanks.

Note: England does get their own countrymen to run the show, that's actually the point [and rule..?] of international matches; of national squads. You don't see Messi playing for Spain because he plays IN Spain, do you?

well i mean if messi really wanted to play for spain he could. Although thiago motta was born in brazil played for the italian national team.
But i mean that would defeat the whole purpose of an international team. Even though messi would like to play with the spanish international team (and they would be likely unstoppable) he grew up in argentina and its his home despite where he plays.
Not to mention that it would be a HUGE slap to the face to the argentines

Well exactly, he has some national pride. Which unfortunately is somewhat lackluster in todays game. I seem to remember a Spanish team in La Liga last year that would only play Argentinians. Can't remember the name but hopefully someone can clear it up for me. OP there are many foreigners in your league and like our league it is mainly the foreigners that make it so great. Maybe you should pull your head out of your arse and enlighten yourself?

omg catalunja u are so genius??
why dont u just apply a job in fifa and organize the friendly games so that england can play against nauru, tuala and maldives..

Why do you guys even bother responding to an idiot?

Nothing better to do at the present time other than to teach the uneducated minds I guess? :)

I love that drawing of kaka in your portrait :)

give em a chance, they just need to get over themselves, they are big headed.
Other than that they will be ready by 2014.
