Baltimore is a suburb of North London don't you know ;). It's only taken the yanks 100 plus years to figure out association football is the real game, rather than their watered down version of Rugby.

Then they try and banter about England's football failure on the world stage. We look forward to welcoming the football tourists to the Emirates next season.
now now, usa finished fourth in the copa america, which if I'm not mistaken means they are the virtual champions :wink:
Not sure what one has to do with the other? But if you want to go there, yes, finishing 4th in the Copa America is far more impressive than losing to Iceland in the Round of 16 in the Euros. How'd England do in Brazil again?

Go home and away for the Arsenal from the Nou Camp to Brisbane Road. Not a fucking tourist, thanks.

Yes would agree, more focussed for the team definitely, but he has a proper manager with Wales

With old silly bollocks he knows he can do whatever he likes

Surprise hangover this morning - surprise because I didn't anticipate having anything to celebrate.

Phenomenal performance - on the ropes at 1-0 but unlike the qualifiers and the England game, Wales went toe to toe with Belgium as a footballing side.

Joe Allen has been immense every single qualifier and tournament game. Ramsey was excellent and an unemployed footballer making mugs of the Belgian defence for that second goal was one of the best things I've ever seen on a football pitch.

I would rather be playing Portugal than Poland. Bring it on!

After being brought on at the death as a specialist, not touching the ball and running up like a complete dickhead, there's no way that bloke was doing anything other than skying his penalty

Anyone see pelle telling neuer that he was gonna dink his penalty beforehand ? Talk about making yourself look like a tool :lol: :lol:

Have to say that conte has impressed me as a manager this summer - he is a lot more tactically astute than I expected and he could be a real coup for the chavs. Of course his management skills and ethos might not travel so well when he leaves Italy, but at the mo all I can foresee is yet another manager tactically raping wenker twice a season :roll: :oops:
