    Terrible from Heskey,

    If it wasn't clear that he is not there to score goals, it is now.

    He held onto it fairly well, I suppose. Nothing else special about it though.

    All he had to do was hold onto it, by Greens standards yeah it was a great save,

    But the shot was straight at him, it was very poor from Heskey under no pressure at all.

    Didn't believe Heskey would score. Might be time to stick Defoe on.

    Is there anyone who can see England winning the WC on the basis of this performance?

    Not dissing the Yanks but England are not playing with any cohesion whatsoever

    Fair bit of power behind it, he maybe could have let it go a little better, but Howard was well positioned and came out well

    Crouch for Heskey instead please, you can't really take Rooney off, regardless of how quiet he has been thus far.

    Didn't think they would win anyway, but its only the first game, look at past world cups, who would have thought England would have got so far in 1990 after Ireland game.


    You can't make a judgement after one game imo

    It's more a case of confirming what I thought anyway but I'm just curious as to whether there is anyone who thinks England have any sort of chance and if so why?
