What separates the men from the boys at this level is the ability to concentrate in the 93rd minute.

Why do you "tar" the whole country with the same "brush" as a group of over-aged boys kicking a bit of leather around a field somewhere???!

Leather? Are you aware we are now in the 21st century?

No sports newsgroups available lads???????????

that and being on the same team as Zinedine Zidane and Thierry Henry...a smart move on the part of any defender...there are only a few that good in every generation...the French currently have two...you don't beat them, you just try to stop the ball going anywhere near them and hope that when it does they are unlucky or off the boil

the scary thing is the players the French have coming through at youth and U21 level...Meghni, Bourgougnoux and Mexes might be in the same league as Zidane, Henry and Desaiily...except that this time all three are pretty much the same age, and they'll hit their prime whilst Henry is still at he top level

and how do the do it?...spending money on coaching them and not selling off every single open space that kids could play football on so that expensive unwanted offices can sit empty

Rooney isn't over-aged

hell the team had an average age of 26...and an average reading age of nearly half that

I thought both teams played well. England did not deserve to lose.#

I don't give a s*it if the players are black, white or green.

bloody Gooners get everywhere

Haha well there were four of them on show for Franch last night. At one point, even the commentator screwed up and refered to them as Arsenal instead of France.

Shouldn't your be arranging your CD's in alphabetical order?

Why do English men make better lovers than French men? Coz they can stay on top for 90 mins and still come second.
