and the good-ol-crap referreeing.
I reckon even I could've scored against 'em.
You aren't giving Argentina enough credit, they were nothing short of superb! If theycontinue playing like that, they will lift the cup, end of story.

Don't forget who the opposition was today.

It's amazing how a team starts with Tevez and Messi on the bench. When teams have to start with players like Owen, Crouch or Pauleta you know they're not up to par.

It's football, anything can happen, but this is another reality check for a lot my countrymen and for a lot English fans too.

Better than Paraguay, T&T and Angola, for that matter.

Serbia only conseeded one goal in qualification, that is an all time World cup record!! What's your point?

He's great. He might get a lot of bad (edit: international) press but we love him here. He gives everything he's got in all games and is incredibly focused. He is a true leader and even if age doesn't forgive, his motivation is high as he knows it's his last chance. The contrast with C.Ronaldo couldn't be higher.

My only fear is accumulated fatigue, he shouldn't play the whole game against Iran if we get a lead. We need him.

OUTSTANDING......
Got to be favourites now.

I still think any of the big 6 could win it.

i agree that ronaldo can be a bit in and out of games sometimes but i thought he played ok against angola, a lot better that simao who should have been subed instead.

I agree, I was saying that mentally ronaldo has a lot, but really a lot, to learn from Figo. Ronaldo is also essential to us, but it's a shame he's wasting the potential to be much more.

To qualify, S & M beat or drew with
San Marino, Bosnia,Belgium,Lithuania,

Spain,[the only decent team in their group] they managed a 1-1 draw.

Fair play to Argentina,they did the job. But imagine if they had drawn it would've been a catastrophic result.

Because Argentina has an amazing team, not necessarily because Serbia are like T&T.

Edit: Which they aren't.
