Haha whats up Rasho...Excellent observation. England is like the Knicks.

Overrated, overhyped, 40+ years since glory days...garbage chokers in clutch time

Jesus. Why are Americans so hard on the England team? I find it genuinely bizarre.

Are you telling me England is not filled with pages of disappointments yet great squads?

We dont even need to go back to the late 80's 1990...Just perplexed at the golden generation of the early 2000 era

I'm not sure we've been watching the same England team in this millenium.

I like my Uruguay cousins, but after first game, and after seeing all those pansy daisies with their fancy hairdos, their fitting tees and their manicure hands, I really hope England gets this game.

More Vinnie, less Forlán! :P

knee injury+playing against half a dozen former teammates=nonfactor Saurez

I'm pulling for him to succeed, I just don't see it happening. I'll be happy just as long as England loses.

If England wins a World Cup we won't stop hearing about it for another 50 years.
