Am I the only one that realises Hodgson is so badly out of his depth? He gets no stick from the media despite being an absolutely rubbish manager at the top level. Only Liverpool fans mainly tend to give him the criticsm he deserves due to having his bolax for 6 months (was hilarious on our side tho).

He has no tactical flexibility, he sets up for Estonia like he would Spain, has a serial loser mentality and awful man management (threw Sterling under a bus by publicly stating he requested to rest and apparently ignored medical advice to make Sturridge train and in that session he got injured), plays the worst football I have ever seen, Also he is massively deluded, he thinks his achievements in Scandinavia deserve regonition on par with Ferguson.

To be fair, he is a good steady hand for a team like Fulham who have no ambition and are happy to merely get by, but a team with ambitions to improve and evolve, I genuinely can't think of any one worse, he was found out at Liverpool and in England, exactly the same, we will hit new lows with this clown in charge, mark my words.

If we bring players like Baker through hopefully Roy is long gone before they are ready for internationals, the thought off any off our young talent in his hands makes me cringe.

boring

glad these qualifiers are almost over

These ones aren't to bad because fifa has just come out.

The one's in September are the worst, we finally get a taste of prem football again only for it to be snatched away by internationals almost straight away.

Greece put up a dismal performence against equally dismal Finland (1-1). Well taken goals but both teams were horrible.

What are your expectations from our group? You guys seem to be the strongest team in the but you started so poorly. If you beat Northern Ireland and we beat the Faroe Islands our group would be balanced, especially if Finland and Romania plays a draw tonight.

Greece is a known more or less quantity.

Our best striker is as slow as a river barge and Mitroglou is no longer a going concern after his injury.

But is Hungary making any progress ?

It's an awful long time we have n't heard of you.

Well, not really. They sacked our manager after his first official match(we lost against Northern Irelannd in Hungary), now we have an interim coach for three games. Our squad is pretty weak too...

I think Greece will get the 1st place and Romania will get the 2nd, Hungary and Finland will go for the playoff round(3rd place). Northern Ireland started very well but I'd be surprised if they'd finish in the top three.

Romania will get 1st place but it's a pity Hungary are not doing well.

It's the history of football.

In the mid eighties too there were some useful players, Dettari, Esterhazy.

You guys might as well give up, it's obvious that Finland will top the group. :P

Just kidding, will be a very tough task for us to qualify even if the group is one of the easiest. We've never qualified for the WC / Euros before so to even make it to the playoffs would be a step forward for us. If we beat Romania tonight it would be huge, too bad I can't attend that one as I live too far away and won't be able to make a second trip to Helsinki after just a few days since the last one.

Neymar: 40goals in 58 matches and will probably break the brazilian record held by Pele.....

Neymar didnt need to go to barca for people to already figure out he was the world's best young player, but his stats are still...

30 in friendlies...
