Rooney has been left out of the games i think he hasn't been out of form for United but he hasn't scored a goal for England for ages that's why i'd have crouch and Owen or Defoe

I'll just correct you on this. Rooney has been left out because he is suspended for the game against Estonia, after reaching the number of bookings that it takes for you to be banned for 1 game.

England annoy me. They play reasonably well, get a lead, with seconds left, concede an utterly **** goal. If I was goalkeeper, I would have saved that little powderpuff!

I am back from the game

Great occasion, the arch looks amazing when lit-up. Saw a lot of Beckham, he played really well. Brazil looked like they couldn't be bothered. Gerrard also got MoM

Bad points, Gerrard and Carragher out of position, Crouch not playing (how does Beckham's supply work with no target?), the substitutions for the sake of it and the way we sat back.

Roll on wednesday I guess.

England were poor in my opinion. Lacked creativity when attacking and looked absolutely clueless on how to get past Brazil's defense. I knew they would have to rely on set pieces to get a goal and that is what happened.

Something for Liverpool fans to be proud about.

I doubt UEFA are so quick to forget Heysel when thinking about how good their fans are. Really they should although if they were taking tickets off kids and stealing their own banners their scum.

Liverpool are more likely to have the worst fans in Europe because they have been in Europe more than anyone else!

In domestic competitions they are the best fans in England.

what are you basing that on? We're not talking about the atmosphere they create were talking about the trouble they make. I don't think domestically they stand out but they certainly aren't the best behaved.

 

[Animator!]

They haven't created any troubel domestically this year that has come to light in the media, and the media grab the smallest things these days.

Your United tinted glasses need taking off.

I agree what happened at the final was bad, although i'm not entirely sure what happened because the amount of rumours make some stuff hard to believe.

To say we have the worst supporters is utter ****, i've been to european games home and away and nothing like this has happened. The way the entrance was handled meant this was obviously going to happen (probably would of happened with any british team) due to the awful management.

Liverpool need to stop this happening again though somehow.

That doesn't make them the best fans domestically though:. I bet Wigan don't have fans causing trouble but i bet at the same time you won't catch any of their fan jibbing. If all that stuff did go on then along with UEFA not forgetting Heysel so soon and that will still be something they associate with the liverpool fans reputation, then you can see where their basing their opinions but most of the Italian fans are far worse.

At least Liverpool fans create noise! United fans are silent at home!
Away they are alright though.
The best fans in the league would have to be Newcastle, so loud and create a great atmosphere.

What? All they do is boo their own team usually...

Its not about how much noise they make its about how they behave. United fans get to much stick, it's not our fault that half the stadium is filled with silent fans, certainly unfair on the proper fans.
