And Fulham. Could be England's European kings this year.

Yup - and they are 1-0 up as well :-)

Great 3rd goal from Liverpool.
Classic counter attacking.

squeaky bum time

two great results

Capello index - A-Zamora

I see that the sport noted for its blinding originality (let's all get tattooed) has now come up with the tousled hair dago manager wearing the team's scarf !

Unimpressed

What a brilliant end to a very, very poor semi-final (skill wise). Ole big 'ead Redknapp's face is a picture :-)

There can't be many neutrals disappointed that Pompey have dumped out the team managed by one of the architects of their dismal plight. And it will be nice to see Grant (the manager closest ever to winning the Champions League for Chelsea) against Abramovich (the man who thought that wasn't good enough) in the final.

Though it will probably be a crap final now. :(

You got that right and his arrogant dismissal of his involvement in Pompey's problems in the pre-match build up, only made the outcome even sweeter.

I'm so pleased for Pompey and their poor administrators... And that maniac in the top hat. Sad that it had to come the day after they went down.

And Man U. were shocking with the last ball today. Trying to thread it through the eye of a needle to front runners that weren't running.

4 point cushion. Come on Arsenal. You know you can be runners up.

What are peoples views on Zamora to the World Cup? I say give him a call-up prior to the World Cup, start him with Rooney and give him the chance to show us what he can do.

I'll be surprised if Zamora gets the nod. Even if we go with five strikers, it'll probably be Rooney, Defoe, Heskey, Crouch and Bent.

I still struggle to comprehend the Heskey-love, but there's a lot of it out there from knowledgeable guys in the game. Perplexing.

He's a good target man and England get the results with him in the team. You need that kind of man with Rooney, so it's a waste of time starting him with Defoe or Bent. He needs to be up front with either Heskey, Crouch or now possibly Zamora. On current form though, I would at least try him with Zamora.

I'd take Zamora. He's "on fire", as they say in America, and I think he would keep that form going in South Africa.
