Uruguay Vs England 8pm (RTE/BBC/ITV) Group D

CountyHurler

Suarez looks like he's playing in a testimonial..

Stevecw

Both teams struggling to do anything so far

googled eyes

The media have built England up and put Uruguay down too much. I think everyone expected England to walk this

Zlatan!!!

I thought he said he wouldn't even watch the WC

Francie Barrett

England shouldn't have shunted Sterling to accommodate Rooney.

Nuri Sahin

Lol Johnson.

rwg

Game needs a goal badly

Agent Coulson

Ashley Cole must be sitting laughing his head off on crying his eyes out having Banies picked before him.

Baines has been useless so far in both games.

Fuhrer

Id love how it would go down to have the guys dressed as crusaders do that in the middle east

Lucifer MorningStar

England are in the blue kits

Someone mentioned it earlier today, England should have gone with the diamond. Drop Welbeck, bring Lallana or Wilshire in, and leave Rooney and Sturridge up top.

Francie Barrett

Suarez doesn't look right.

That_Guy

Johnson will cost England this game. He's so far out of position it's not even funny.

Boom__Boom

Cahill looking well dodge.

Fuhrer

Has Sterling managed to find a single player with a pass yet?


Completely swarmed every time he has the ball

Skid X

Two poor teams playing poor football.

Pity we'll never get to find out

I hope he's not back too soon

kevohmsford

This game is complete toilet. Needs a goal soon.

Nuri Sahin

Suarez channeling his inner Pippo Inzaghi so far.

Stevecw

Brutal game so far.

mike65

Urugaury are not in a rush are they?

Could both sides have already decided subconsciously a draw would be better than nowt?

murpho999

Poor match so far.

Surprised, thought both teams would be really up for it.

Hitchens

those crusaders never flinched

TimeToShine

Suarez won't do anything in this game. He looks in a bad way. Even his run looks dodgy.

Welbeck and Sterling off, Lallana and Wilshere on.

Still think he's likeliest to pull a moment of magic out to create a goal, especially with the English defence.

Can't be , I had the meniscus job done on both knees, takes a while to get over it. Won't have any match fitness either.

Rooney is being owned.

mike65

Rooney dawling, not the only one I should say but when he loses it its usually in a dangerous place.

Doesn't matter how ''up for it'' a team (or teams) is. If they haven't got enough players with excellent technical ability, they won't be able to produce decent football. And neither team has enough top drawer players.

Arevelo Rios is having some game

Lucifer MorningStar

Close from Cavani

mike65

Clever enough cut back corner.

His rehab and your rehab were likely very different

Lord TSC

Rooney looks so disinterested...

Rooney is ****ing woeful

I don't know how people can tell this from quick glimpses on TV.

An unfit Suarez is still better than most players.

Rooney the hairy ghost

Welbeck is utterly useless.

Throw a pile of money at him and he'll get interested

Oh Welbeck.

kevohmsford

It is looking like Scholes was right about Rooney.

TheTownie

That pretty much sums up Welbeck's ability.

Just hope he doesn't do any long term damage by being out there so early.

derm0j073

Neither team has a player in midfield that can put their foot on the ball and set up an attack . Its all kick and rush .

blueser

Should have been a corner there!

Yes, but also seemed to be played at "not up for it" pace and attitude.

mike65

Godin took Sturridge out.

What did he say?

Also, Godin should be walking.
