Well well well, how the wheel has turned, as they say.

Its appears that great minds do think alike afterall.

Carra, left out of the England team and Wes Brown set to replace him. Ledley King partnering Terry.

Who's smiling now.

Kudos to the big man.

You know the way Milan scored two goals?

I think you'll find he might have been the one supposed to be picking up Inzaghi.

Oh dearey me.

Looks like old Eamonn is going to have to get out his little video clip.

tkpQ4pkm0YE

Right, 1" 57' in the above clip. [hold it there Roisin]

Who is that I see sitting in the holding midfielder role?

Who is that centre-half closest to Inzaghi?

Which centre-half is that who having lost him, then attempts to play offside thus ruling out any chance of him getting back?

Now, mind, it's not the best picture quality but I'm about 80% sure that's Carragher we see in his normal right sided centre-half slot and not Agger.

If you want to argue the toss that its Agger's fault anyway, Agger goes to close down Kaka, as he must, its Carragher's job to watch the "pacy" Inzaghi.

As for the "owning" nonsense.

I think you'll find I was lambasted on here for calling Heinze for the clogger that he is some time before that. Not least by you Sound.

Utd got Ferdinand and Vidic injured before the business end of the CL, ended our hopes essentially. You can claim that Vidic was back for the San Siro but he was an unfit shadow of himself in that game.

If he wasn't fit he shouldn't have played. People rightly mention when Carragher got destroyed by Henry a few years back. No-one ever excuses him even though he was carrying an achilles injury.

Oh for fuck's sake Sound. If Vidic hadn't played it was Fletcher at right-back.

Ferguson risked him and it didn't pay off. His main error in the game came from that waste of space Heinze's pass back to him.

Are you trying to argue that Vidic isn't a much better player than Carragher?

Because he was one of the few bright spots in a banal FA Cup Final back to match fitness and sharp.

Fucking peerless he was.

I still find it hard to grasp why people get so worked up about Carragher not playing for England. If he was to be played alongside Terry then any pacey striker like yer man Shelton or whatever he's called who was at Sheff. Utd. at the end of the season would worry them. Rio or Ledley King give McClaren an option of pace and its not like Rio is a poor player or anything.

Now the arguement that he should be in the team INSTEAD of Terry is more interesting. Both are very similar in their strengths & weaknesses but Terry's aerial ability would force me if the manager to play him.

No he wasn't, he was shit. He only started to get all this acclaim when he became a fixture in the centre of defence. There's not much call in the modern game for full backs with zero pace and poor passing ability, and, as you sad yourself, something akin to vertigo when it comes to crossing the halfway line.

True. But over the 2nd half of the season Rio was probably the more in form of the 2. Rio's biggest problem in concentration. If you look at the games United have played against the big teams Rio is very consistant. Its the Boro's, Wigan's and Fulham's where he lets himself down.

These are funny-
How the England teams fared in Tallinn...

Paul Robinson
Below par even on a night when he had less work than an ice cream salesman in the Arctic on a particularly chilly day.

An ugly flap early in the second half was a sobering reminder of his deficiencies, while he was beaten too comfortably by an injury-time shot that John Terry cleared off the line.

Still a weak link.
Rating: 5

Wes Brown
Had little to do, and generally underwhelmed whenever he tried to make do. Sad that a player of such potential is destined to fritter out into second-rate ordinariness.
Rating: 6

Ledley King
It mattered not against a side ranked 110th in the world, but King's inclusion ahead of Jamie Carragher was unfathomable - and remains so after another unconvincing display. Against superior opponents, his turning speed of an ocean liner would have been exploited.
Rating: 6

John Terry
Goal-line clearance was his sole memorable contribution during the 93 minutes of play. Which is a reasonable indication that he had a solid evening.
Rating: 7

Wayne Bridge
Justified his selection over Nicky Shorey by proving a willing accomplice to Joe Cole on the left, although his end product generally failed to match his endeavour.
Rating: 6

David Beckham
Albeit with the benefit of hindsight, the omission of Beckham last August was not only reckless folly but also staggering arrogance. England, despite giddy claims to the contrary, are not so well stocked with quality players that they can play politics by ditching one in an ill-advised mission statement.

Since his belated recall, Beckham has revitalised England and provided both potency and purpose. By creating three of England's four goals over the past week, only delayed transatlantic flights can prevent him playing for his country in the autumn. The citing of 'world class' play or players has become hackneyed in football but they are apt for describing the pass for Crouch's goal.

The problem of Beckham in America is a problem entirely of Steve McClaren and England's making - Beckham would not have jeopardised his prospects of achieving a 100th cap if he believed that the door hadn't been firmly closed to him.

The downside to his performance - another especially apt word - was his ankle injury. Whilst it did not apparently blight his yield, everyone was nevertheless made aware of the 'handicap' by the type of attention-seeking which saw him shopping in Manchester city centre sporting an alice band on the day it was revealed that Sir Alex Ferguson, in conjunction with a stray football boot, had taken a lump out of his head.

Yet he is worth the headache - Steve McClown must have been out of his head to drop him.
Rating: 8

Joe Cole
Worse than dreadful before scoring a sublime goal that transformed both his and England's evening. That terrific piece of skill aside, Cole performed fitfully - failing to elude his marker while too many of his tricks either failed or were performed on the half-way line.
Rating: 6

Steve Gerrard
Performed adequately in a holding role, yet Estonia were such modest opponents that it would be foolish to interpret the evening as vindication of his partnership with Frank Lampard (cue Steve McClaren speaking foolishness).

For the autumn qualifiers, Owen Hargreaves must be recalled, which in turn must mean that Gerrard takes the role that Lampard has comprehensively failed to exploit.
Rating: 6

Frank Lampard
Sometimes in football, personnel move on because they have become stale, or because it simply isn't happening for them at their current abode. If England were a club side, Lampard's advisors would surely have persuaded him to move on to pastures new.

Instead, stuck in denial, Lampard continues to trot out the same old disheartening clichés followed by the same old dismal performances, offering no discernable suggestion that he either appreciates that he is an international rut or that he will soon climb out of it.

A spell out of the firing line is essential for both him and England.
Rating: 6

Michael Owen
Goals are Owen's currency and he earned his money with his first senior strike since a tap-in against Jamaica 13 months ago. As against Brazil, the sometime Toon striker was lively if lacking sharpness in and around the penalty box.

Pessimistic suspicions that he has lost a yard of pace after spending 16 of the past 18 months on the sidelines can only be properly judged after a prolonged return to action.
Rating: 7

Peter Crouch
Crouch is as effective as he is gangly. Earned an assist for Joe Cole's opener, before dispatching Beckham's sumptuous through-ball with a straightforward header. A shame, then, that a good night's work was marred by a booking that rules him out of the autumn's must-win encounter with Israel.

not disputing you there, same dilemma as playing two far too similar mid-fielders ie. Gerrard/Fat Frank

Lampard and Gerrard aren't similar though, except for their ego and lack of footballing intelligence. One can score brilliant goals, tackle, hit beautiful passes, boss the game and spur the team on. The other likes to whinge a lot and posesses the world record for deflected shots, and, er... that's about it, really.

Shut it you.

Do you know, I was thinking, the likes of Steau Bucharest, Porto and PSV won European Cups in the years immediately following the ban.

Do you reckon that good Everton team of the time might have won a European Cup at the time?

That would have been really nice, wouldn't it?
