  1. ok heres a foreigners perspective:

    the england national team, on paper, are bloody brilliant. the likes of beckham, lampard, gerrard, terry, ferdinand, rooney and owen immeadiately says this team is invincible. but i believe there are three core problems with the national team. whilst all these players are fantastic, they lack team chemistry in their performances. full credit to all of them, they are all class players, but they just cant play that well all together, its a shame because they should do better than what they have done at recently international tournaments. the second problem, now probably not such a problem but ill mention it, i always thought in recent times england have had goalkeeping issues. whilst david james now has finally established himself as the first choice, and despite robinsons good performance at the world cup, i really think it was a problem for some time, and showed immensly when mcclaren was in charge and carson and robinsons form dipped immensly. finally the third problem, and i stress that this doesnt come from the fans, but i think there is a lot of pressure on them to perform coming from people inside the footballing world, and i think in recent times its gotten to them. having a non english manager isnt a problem, look at us aussies, we had guus hiddink and apparently should have won the world cup if it wasnt for fabio grosso taking a dive in the box <_< <_< but either way, i think the future for england now looks bright, they are playing some decent football and i cant see why they wont do very well at the next world cup, if not win it, thats if they can get past australia :P:P

  2. i think all of us were saying maybe lescott should sit on the bench for this one, i rekon moyes will probably start him after a good performance for england. hopefully we'll have enough mids available so jags doesnt have to play in the midfield. i think vaughan and yak will continue up front, vic might get a run later on in the game. really looking forward to seeing fellaini and castillo play, will be interesting to see how they go. could we possibly see a start or sub appearance for jacobsen?

  3. Number 25? I wonder why he didn't take number 16 (I copied and pasted from wikipedia.. I know.. I know..). Liverpool Reserves have a squad size of 28... its rather depressing. Our u18s and first team seem to overlap to make the reserves squad.

    yeah true.. i would have thought he would take the #11 jersey

  4. no, i totally got that, i assumed it was the club's motto, my question is a bit broader. Why use Latin, when there's no relation to the language? just curious.

    i quite honestly dont know. i just think its got something to do with it always being used as a language for mottos for many years, just a tradition i guess.
