Couldn't disagree more. Scholes, though perhaps suspect defensively had, imo, quite a good game. Tbh - I cannot belive we lost - it was not deserved.

Re: France Will Kick Englands Butt
He was never on the left. It left Cole with nowhere to go forwards, and gave him no cover at the back. He didn't just drift in, he was often seen on the right wing.

loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
you think you are real smart dont you???
what a stupid idea
if it was that simple, dont you think that every manager wouldnt tell his team to do that????
there is a little important rule in football called OFFSIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if you put a defender on the line, there wouldnt be any offside at all.
all the french would need to do is put a man sidwards behind the wall, zidane would pass him and he would just kick the ball in without any problems.
what a stupid ass idea is that???

Re: France Will Kick Englands Butt
Perle you ****ing idiot. Players are often placed on the line. I remember Ashley Cole heading a free kick off the line for Arsenal not that long ago. They would have scored had he not been there.

Re: France Will Kick Englands Butt
Yeah, I think it was in the Champions League, but I'm not certain.
By "not that long ago" I mean "sometime this season" by the way.
edit: wrong, it was against Ajax, in was the season before the one just finished.
edit2: and I suppose 1 example in 2 years isn't evidence of "often"

what the fu++ ????
you block the pass if you can?????
he?????
you got 4-6 guys forming the wall and 1 guy on the line.
that leaves 3 to 5 people who have to defend against 8 french players who can run around freely behind the wall and having no fears at all about being in offside.
how the hell is that suppose to work?????

its very hard to score from that position.
thats te best defence you have against a free kick from 23 meters.
you put a wall on one side and the keeper on the other side.

1) It's Zidane from 20-22 yards
2) It's like a penalty for him, he's going to shoot, not pass it
3) sticking a man on the line makes sense

we are talkin about zidane
if he sees a man on the line, he will take the advantage and pass the ball and not shoot.
If you put a man on the line on a 22 meters freekick, you are commiting suicide

passing it from there would be ****ing stupid. There's enough players in the box to charge down any resulting shot, which would mean they would be even less likely to score compared to just having a go from the free kick.
its why basically no teams do it from that range.

You can mark anyone that he passes to, and clear the ball.

Re: France Will Kick Englands Butt
There is plenty of opportunity for passing anyway, since everybody is in the wall.

Re: France Will Kick Englands Butt
Perle how come you went quiet earlier in the thread when England were winning? I highly doubt we would have seen a single one of these pathetic, shitty little posts you have been spewing out at the rate of knots had England won. Why? Simply cos you're a prick who can't admit when you're wrong.
Now, lets assume I'm wrong, omg yes such a n00bish idea putting a man on the line. Lets here how YOU would try and counter it then seeing as you seem to be the all seeing, all dancing tit who should be managing England.

somepeople just cant understand that .
the offensive team has a majority because of the wall, and without the offside to neutralize that advantage, the defensive team will receive a goal with a very high probability.

France had 2 chances and scored two.
Rooney's greediness was spectacular, Owens anonymousness was incredible, besides the goal lampard did nothing, becks missed his penalty, gerrard - oh dear oh dear, scholes was abysmal, cole was good. king was good, campbell was good, neville was nowhere, james had no choice.
But "11 heroes on that field" bobby robson? Only cause you almost won the most boring game ive ever seen.

...you didn't watch the same game as me :\.
And the free kick was the fault of David James. None of this "on the line defender" lark. The wall is covering one side of the goal, James is not covering the other sufficiently. The free kick is at a decent, saveable height. He should've got there but "oh well".

Hold on, I know! Why doesn't every team just line 11 players up on the goal line when they're 1-0 up! Then the other team couldn't score!
