A win is a win, but it was like watching a Championship play-off final...tense, exciting, but very poor quality.

Very funny watching Supreme Leader JT giving Ibrahimovic a 3 yard start and then running in slow motion...we all started laughing it was so funny..send for RIO!!

Parker - can't run, can't pass......get rid
Young - tell him he's not the great player he thinks he is, drop him, maybe use him as a sub
Rooney...dunno, Wellbeck and Carroll did quite well.

At the end of the day it's in our own hands now.
As long as we don't lose we're in the quarters.

The main thing in worried about though is we'll play for a draw and then get done.

I thought he did alright, considering what his role is! Mopped up okay in front of the back four, although him and Gerrard weren't exactly the combo of Khediera and Schweinsteiger for Germany (!) and he was the one that chased down the pitch to press the swedish defender on the ball outside his own box in the last 10 mins.

Parker's role is his role. It's not pretty, it's not particularly pleasant but he does carry it out well, in the main.

I agree, there are better, but they ay English!
