    Algeria are creating more half chances than England.

    England look crazy nervous, playing with lead in their boots. Genuienly worried for them!

    Has Rooney had a touch yet?
    It's all the Algerians so far.

    I find that hard to believe tbh. They may be the official figures, but that's certainly not how it seemed at the game itself.

    A lot of neutral supporters in South Africa support England, a lot to do with them following the premiership.

    He just had a terrible shot there. He'd better score 1st beacuse I have a lot of money on him.

    Can't wait to contrast the HT reaction on BBC with the RTE reaction. Where's Dunphy when you need him.

    England have been unconvincing. Already Algeria have 3 shots on target to Englands none

    This is the same performance as USA. Barry is the only player who is doing well, Carragher to some extent. Get Heskey OFF. He is fat and useless. England will lose this game at this rate.

    Algeria are palying far better than I expected. Or maybe England are playing far worse than I expected.

    Why is Rooney drifting out right with Heskey furthest forward? Not gonna score with Heskey as the lead man.

    Algeria are very poor.

    Probably the poorest team at this World Cup.

    They've no ideas England. None whatsoever. This is incredible. I must admit to feeling a little bit of schadenfraude. England are on their way out.

    For the group of players, this has to be the biggest underachieving England side of them all.

    I know I've been saying this all day but England need Joe Cole because everyones crosses so far have gone straight to Algerian players

    Way to sort them out= take off Carra, move Barry to centre back, move heskey to defensive mid, throw on jole cole on the left, gerrard behind rooney= result

    Tbh 90% of corners and crosses in this World Cup don't get past the first man.

    Anyone else?

    Not much worse is there?

    N.Korea looked very good to me. Maybe New Zealand but at least they can score goals and got a point.

    Algeria scored 1 in the last 6, and that was a penalty.

    England have to get better, don't they??

    Very disjointed, little linkage from back to front. Really thought the inclusion of Barry tonight would help them dominate a weak Algerian midfield, oooops.

    No, because it's quite clear you're too ignorant to understand. So I won't waste my time.

    Algeria were reported to be very fired up after Rooney said England's second string could beat them. I can see it on the basis of this performance so far but I'm sceptical about whether they can maintain it for 90 minutes.

    What an absolute disgrace.

    Half an hour in an England definitely second best.

    Seem to have livened up in the last couple of mins.

    Rooney should have gone himself instead of laying off to Lampard.

    England need to start playing long ball or at least high balls. They are winning a huge percentage of the aerial stuff
