Well, I don't expect England to win much with McClaren, but I'd certainly prefer him to Sven. Thought that before the match, and I think that now.

me too...... i just cant understand some of his decisions like formation and random substitues....... and all of this 'we will get better' BS...... im glad he's gone....... English football wont miss him.

I'm hoping for a France - Germany final........ and a French victory of course.

So far I have remianed silent ... but now I cannot any longer

I hope that some of portugals players were busy writing their acceptance speaches for both the next BAFTA and Oscar's next year ....

Best actor in a tackle goes to ronaldo when tackled by Lampard .... would have scored 9.5 at any Olympic diving event ... and a roll that would that could flatten a length of a pitch. ....

Best supporting actor goes to maniche for his wonderful interpritation of man gunned down by steam roller when Hargreaves went with a couple of inches of him.

If anyone watched the post match post mortum of the game on BBC they would have ben treated to the clips of ronaldo doing what he does best. It was ronaldo moaning, griping and whinging that was disgraceful. Every time a tackle was made he was running in and complaining. Before the kick off he used his head at the back of Rooney's as some kind of challange. Then typically he runs over and moans about an alleged stamp by Rooney. No wonder Rooney reacted. But it should NEVER have been a red. Yellow at most. Maybe FIFA should be looking into the ronaldo head challenge and should be thinking about a RED card after the event!

England were poor, of that there is no doubt in the group stages. And against Ecuador they tried to get back into to a flowing play. But against portugal they tried to play better and they did once Rooney's dismissal.

Again the game was saddled with an incompident referee who's function was go go off like a car alarm at midnight the second an England player went near their opposition. Could the fact he was Argentinian been a factor ? We may never know.

Still Good luck to France/Arensal in the semi I hope you aren't held up by the acting and rolling that the farce yesterday exposed.

Still one thought ... if you can't beat 10 men do you really deserve to go through ? ....

NOTE: Did anyone esle spot the sneeky sly smile wink at the bench by Ronaldo once he'd managed to get Rooney sent off ?

Bet the Man Unt training ground will be a fun place in August !

out of curiousity, does anyone else feel the referees are always bias and never at least equal when england are playing? or are we just more honest and dont flayel around the floor over nothing at all?

The ref can be summed up in one word .,.. Argentinian.

As for the second question ..... I can sum that up in two words TERRY BUTCHER !

Yea... i hate that guy..... why do all these cocky players all end up playing for Man U anyway?! :mrgreen: ....... sorry couldn't help it..... Liverpool fan here....

na, but even as an individual player he's annoying...... both in the way he acts..... and the way he plays (we all know he takes too many step overs)... there will be alot of booing well into next season.
The only thing is rooney may get to him first!...... if i were him i'd give him a hard time, untill he's begging to go home :mrgreen:

Arch, I am a Liverpool fan as well but that has nothing to do with how much I hate C. Ronaldo. Guess everyone forgets that the cheeky little baby was accussed of rape a while back!

Looks like he is already scared to return to England and play for ManU. Rumour is he is looking to go to Real Madrid. At least there he will only have to face ex-captain Beckham...

i heared on the news before that after the match Rooney tried to get into the portugal dressing room to give ronaldo a hiding. I hope he still gets his chance

Don't we all ...

I hate violence on 99% of the time, but I would so like to be a fly on the wall at Manc land when Rooney gets his hands on that greasy little Cheat !

Congratulations Portugal.

The following is a story from 4thegame.com...

Cristiano Ronaldo says that he has cleared the air with England star Wayne Rooney after the Portugal winger came under heavy fire for his actions in Saturday's World Cup quarter-final between the two sides.

Ronaldo has been criticised for seeming to encourage referee Elizondo to dismiss his Manchester United team-mate after his stamp on Ricardo Carvalho, with sections of the English press seeing him as the main villain in the piece.

However, Ronaldo told www.gestifute.com: The things that have been said regarding me and my team-mate and friend Rooney are incredible.

"Between me and Rooney, there is absolutely no problem. I reiterate, no problem.

"At the end of the game, we sent each other some text messages and also today. Between the two of us everything has been cleared.

"He wished me the best of luck in the World Cup. He told me we had a great team and that if we continued to play like this, we would go far.

"He wasn't angry with me and moreover, he told me to completely ignore what the English press has said, that all they wanted was to create confusion, but we are already used to that."
