Yeh but I'm not going to load character map for one little umlaut. And in England we just say "Allback" anyway, so it makes no odds to me.

Zlatan was very fortunate, Vieri was SO close to heading that away

I could've gone to Sweden-Denmark. I had the chance to get tickets for that game, as well as Italy-Denmark and Greece-Spain, but exams were in the way :(

Also, the other day I was about to put an 11/2 bet on Spain/Greece to draw and Portugal to win. I didn't :(

I did warn you in the thread title.

When Larsson scored, he ran over to the sideline, where Allback hugged him and picked him up.

When Allback scored, he went and found Larsson to hug him too. I think thats good. It would've been easy for Allback to get annoyed, because Larsson announced he was going to play for Sweden again and walked back into the team, at the cost of Allback's place.

At a guess, Larsson will have met up with Allback, taken him to one side and said, "Sorry mate, didn't mean to walk back into the team, no hard feelings?"

Seems alright.

Larsson's 1st was majestic.

Marcus Allback scoring pleases me too, being a Villa fan.

Its a tough call, but its the sort of headache Sven will enjoy. Personally he can't really do wrong.

However I think you have to look at it realistically. King playing well shocked us all - we just didn't expect it. He's spent all year playing in midfield for a mid-table side. Whereas John Terry has had a great season at centre back, finishing 2nd in the league and semi-finalists in the Champions League. King is a good replacement, but you've got to hedge your bets and choose Terry.

Eidos

I thought the game yesterday was totally ironic.

Before the game, everyone said Gerrard would win us the tournament, and that Ledley King was a liability.

In the end, Gerrard cost us the game and King was awesome. Ho hum!

Just for the record Rickard, its Emile Heskey and Steven Gerrard who are getting all the stick. Not many people are blaming David James, because the pass back to him was awful.

The Gary Neville handball was dubious, could have gone either way, whereas the England one was definitely a penalty, and should really have been sent off.

I'm surprised not many England fans went on the rampage in Lisbon last night.

Nice one. During these European Championships, I'm off school on study leave and spending all my time in the pub.

But your way sounds nice too .. ;)

I have around 10 people coming round my house for the France game. Off to the supermarket to get the beers in, my step-mum is on food patrol, and I've been given the green light to re-arrange all the furniture. Should be good (if we win..)
