    I'm pleased Guy Mowbray got the World Cup Final for the BBC. Always liked him as a commentator.

    I'm just so happy that Jonathan Pearce is nowhere to be heard, not that he had a chance,

    but all i can ever think of is bloody Robot Wars when he does games, it drives me mental. I keep expecting the centre circle to open where the players can fall in, and the ref to start spitting flames and picking players up and hrowing them in it,

    ok maybe i went a bit too far, but you know what i mean.

    Fantastic stop there. I don't really rate Stekelenburg but he deserves credit there.

    If neither Sneijder or Villa score, Muller gets the Golden Boat because he has played the least amount of minutes.

    Spain's dodgy defence have got that out of the way

    It goes on assists, he will win it on assists, think he is 2 ahead of the others.

    Yes he has 3, the others are on 1. Forlan is out of it

    Houghton's being unfair on Villa there. It was a difficult effort.

    Get him off the pitch now, there is no way he will last the 90, especially with Webb.

    Ramos in the book now too.

    Webb seems to know what he's doing alright, giving cards when they're due instead of handing them out like peanuts.

    Dutch came into more there for the last ten minutes.

    Another card for DeJong - should have been a red imo
