the man Birchall did his job but he did,t have support up fon the front and flank like carlos was doing the last time .

Birchally seemed a bit star struck! in the first half.. but he worked his but off in the 2nd half! and he looked for openings to score.. but he didnt find any..
The intro. of rooney threw off the defenders... lawrence got more concerned with rooney and it seems like he left crouch to sancho ( who in my opinion climbed on sancho to score that goal.. which is a foul.. but anyway!)

We try rell hard.. and england play hard too.. no one deserve to lose.. 0-0.. I feel rell bad for shaka.. with that goal from gerrard.. and yorke work soooo hard!!!!! ( gosh did u see his face!!)

It was awful refereeing... simply awful.. balls went outside.. terry and gerrard fouled our players.. and im my opinion.. our goal wasnt offside.. It wasnt meant to be.. but we still have a chance.. hopefully Birchy & co.. will shine against Paraguay.. its okay.. that we're sad or angry.. but i think we should all, also be PROUD..

Three cheers for Our beautiful warriors!

birchall is a fighter and he giving 110% he working hard to win the ball (which is a positive) but maybe if he don't give it away so quick he would need to work less. Theobald the same thing them 2 need to watch Yorke a lil more and keep the ball

yes is just u. Me mum playes ah holding midfiled role today. he made several important tackles, he fight, scrap and scrape and had a very good game. i dont knwo watch match u ppl was looking. and as someone said earlier made made ah very good pass earlier. thanks to him n yorke lampard and gerrad ddint have much free time in midfield especially in our thrid. ME MUM PLAYED WELL

As far as I'm concerned, Birchall's last decent game was the first leg against Bahrain. I personally feel him and Theobald in the same position..just a little bit out of debth. His major liability is he cannot play a possession game. Poor first touch and tendency to bad pass on short passes. Defensively he is OK because he can hustle and put his body in front of the ball, but that's it. And yes he was invisible. Been like that long time.

Allyuh "Me mum" did his job. Everybody don't have to score, take shots or make pretty passes. He was effective because he was pressuring in the midfield and causing the English mids to give up the ball. That is his job and he did it well. I was hoping he would try a few sceamers like Gerrard did. He had two chances but held on too long and lost it. But we still have Paraquay on Tuesday> Let's stay positive and England and Peter Crouch owe us so they better beat Sweden by two for us.

of cours ei woulda like to see him do some spectacular s***
but he work hard...do teh dirty work..closin down a lot...he eh see much of the ball though
he do good defensive work

paddy · « **Reply #37 on:** June 15, 2006, 11:57:40 PM »

although you might not see so much of birchall thats because he is scraping and breaking down the opposition in midfield -- he did a great job. If it wasnt for Crouch the Cheat we would have a result in the bag

i watched the game and im english but im also a fan of birchall and the soca warriors when that goal went in and it was offside i went mental ,, as for saying birchalls last decent gamewas against bahrain are you watching the same birchall as everyone else was,, birchall worked dam hard last night keeping lampard and gerrard at bay ok gerrard scored wasnt birchalls fault

Them soca warriors on that pitch each and every one of them did you proud WIN LOSE OR DRAW

england fans were sying they were going thrash you 5,6,7,8,9 or maybe 10-0 and we only lost by 2-0 that is a great achivement we were 7 minutes from a draw and im am dam well proud of the soca warriors and im english

Stop slating your own players and get behind them 110% cause thats what they need not the slatation.

Thats what I thought too, but there wasn't any foul. Crouch is about 6 feet taller than Brent, he only had to use one hand (more like a little finger to get the better of him on that play)

when I look at the replay of that goal I see Crouch grabbing Brent's hair and twisting de man head around while he jumps for the header AND climbed UP on Brent................dat is what i see

I was referring to the idea that the foul was for backclimbing...

To be honest I only noticed the hair pulling issue after, and I agree with you...he did unbalance him by pulling his hair and turning him around, and yes it was scandalous. I somehow doubt that that is something any of the referees would have seen though. Sancho should have at least complained about it, make a sign, anything.

Whatever. Crouch/England will get whats coming to them. Lets just hope that its not against Sweden...

I didn't see that, but I'll take a closer look at the replays.

In fairness, the ref also missed the fact that Lampard didn't touch Sancho when Lampard got booked for fouling him.

sinned · « **Reply #46 on:** June 16, 2006, 11:31:25 AM »

i cant even believe this thread! anybody who knows football know birchall played very well in both sweden and england games..he was always close to an opponent and pressure in midfield..yes he didnt do much attacking but neither did the team. i actually think birchall was a great player for we in helping stifle the midfield..and he will almost definitely play on tuesday

Trus mi Birchall is Mi bwoy.. (Mi 2nd son looks exactly like Birchal) so Mi Like this yute but I want fans to check how many time he touch de ball against sweeden and England.. I check 13 times>>>>>> I could be wrong because during game time mi high or drunk but I checked 13 times total in both games..yu cya be no midfield player and touch ball 13 times in one game emagine 2 games?.. If Beenie is top coach he will remove Birchall from de starting Line up come Paraguay game.. Birchal play wid all he have but this world cup I am starting to think who did he wish he was playing for England or Trinidad? dont get warmonga wrong.. Mi love this yute but this world cup he showed nothing speecial so far.....

warmonga..

Birchallsgirl who are smthg yes! Im a girl too.. and yea.. Birchall not awful lookin.. so yes i can understand the attraction but jeez.. ppl just givin their honest opinions.. dont tell ppl to grow up and dont tell ppl who are true soca warrior fans.. we support the team as a unit.. the socawarriors are the whole squad.. not just christopher birchall.. and c'mon girlie.. he wasnt excellent he was out of touch.. but EVERYONE has bad days.. nobody bringin him down and everyone recognizes his valuable contribution.. but if he out of touch ..he shouldnt be on.. but thats beenhakker decision..

Stop jumpin down ppl's throat missy, we have the right to freedom of speech.. dont be blinded by love

Birchie had a role to play, and I thought he executed well. He is a ball winner and that he did. I can't see your invisible comment as a fair analysis.
