Come anticipate Roy Hodgson's three months in charge og England with me.

it's a totally different thing with rugby, half the aim is to physically intimidate and overpower the opposition, and every second involves a full on physical confrontation.

have you seen England play football?

back of the net

not since venables, no.

This is making me realise that there'd've been somebody pulling that shit in the trenches at the Somme. An experience I'd thought couldn't have been any worse.

"He put himself on the line for England. He’s someone you want to sit beside in the trenches."

"There is no doubt that he has been a warrior of a footballer, lion-hearted, patriotic and ever prepared to risk injury for the cause. You’d want him beside you in the trenches but maybe not in your home."

"someone I’d want with me in the trenches. He’s a winner and would always put his head where it hurts and lead his country with passion."

"in the trenches"+"john terry"

When contemplating your imminent death, caught on barbed wire and suffocating in thick mud, you'd want to spend your last few minutes pretending you really want it to someone you don't like.

Zlatan delivers.

More evidence that he can't do it against top opposition

Haha

That was actually a really good goal.

Zlatan puts clown shoes on Shawcross.

Hat trick. Beautiful.

He is a god.

lol

Joe Hart has been crap all night.

osman's been lovely

!!!!!

oh yes

Fucking hell

:D

off he trots, not particularly giving a shit

Haven't enjoyed a friendly so much for ages. OMG.

Damn, stream died and I missed that one. Still, quite the hattrick.

And is this how Sweden are going to roll from now on?

You've gotta see the 4th IK!

Just caught a replay, lol. And lol at all of centurion Stevie's questions being about Zlatan!

And I guess that's the end of the Zlatan debate

never

My word that's astonishing

the problem with not watching England friendlies is that once every 200 matches something worth seeing happens

(just saw the proper angle)

finest human of his generation

just seen it. flukey.

this one?

http://i.minus.com/i7UuKja2NuIbQ.gif

yeah, coulda gone anywhere

As with most balls that are struck with the foot, yes.

Do you think he meant it?

coach always said to put it on goal and good things would happen

of course that was ice hockey

that's genuinely one of the best goals of all time

i bet if you watch all of sweden's friendlies he has done that 99 times before one finally went in

done it when it mattered tho

in the 91st min when already winning a meaningless friendly against crappy opposition

To be fair to the lad, how often can the opportunity possibly arise?

This is both true and also a kinda stupid thing to say

Hodgson - Ibrahimovic being kept on cost us a result.

still doesn't top trevor sinclair for me.

joe hart tho, love seeing him fail.

actually does get better on repeated viewings, in terms of the technique.

tho still not better than john barnes v blackburn, obviously.

ibrahimovic is a pile of shit, cowardly flash waster who never performs when it matters and is labelled "unorthodox" cos he can't play basic football. most overrated player i can think of.

these crucial goals against england in a friendly have vindicated you, as has his rise to the pinnacle of european football with paris saint germain.
