It's still just soccer, they're not supermen, don't expect 10 goals per match.

This isn't directed to anyone in particular, just that I've heard all day that the games were boring. Don't ****ing watch it then, it might not be your thing.
You only have a few games to prove yourself and continue in the World Cup so a poor performance is DEFINITELY picked up on as opposed to a 38 game season where a bad performance can be forgiven.

If England are crap tomorrow you can bet your ass I will pick up on them too. I don't want to be bowled over with goals galore in each game (actually I probably do lol) but you should hit the ground running in the World Cup and every match is scrutinised and 'generally' a barometer of future performance. Put simply if Frances manager (Domonech) continues to play people out of position and have a lack goals then they will be out. Simple really.

You can only say a match is boring AFTER you have watched it and not before , so you have to watch it in the first place and then make a judgement!
