maybe Rooney was why he seemed to wince even more after the mention...

A chap called LAndon Donovan has been mentioned a lot over here. He's being tipped by some to become a big name as a result of this tournament.

I was born In England. I watched the England game in the local pub today.
I don't understand how people can get so enthusiastic, so passionate about England (football team and country)? I don't feel any affection for the team; and I don’t feel any affinity with this country any more than any other European country. When the crowds are singing patriotic songs, almost tearfully, what are they thinking about, what is stirring those emotions(?): Churchill, poppy fields? I doubt it. What is this ‘pride’ in England based upon? I’m baffled by patriotism. And besides, if Rio Ferdinand saw me on the street, he'd probably play some ridiculous prank on me, or ask his butler to spit on me because I'm "a peasant". Pah, footballers - they’re all obnoxious braggarts. I despise them with every fibre of my penis. |

Delayed response, but I wasn't checking this thread often, as it seems we are using the fantasy game thread for all things World Cup. Landon Donovan is a fine player. He was thought of becoming a 'big name' during the 02 Finals too. He played in Germany for a season, or even less with Bayern Munich and hated it. Donovan plays for the LA Galaxy now. I've read that he is very content with staying in the States and helping bring MLS to a larger audience. He has already been on the winning side of the MLS Cup three times. By far our best prospect. |
