Agreed. Johnson is not a very good defender so he has to be making things happen up front to be of any value. He's not doing that so.......

Holy crap, that's an awful dive. Can't believe the ref fell for that.

Wayne Rooney is a waste of a roster spot.

How many English fans would have thought that leaving Rooney at home would England in the exact same position as they already are?

My God Rooney. Have you played this game before? Sweet Jesus, Stevie teed that up for you, what more do you want him to do, score it for you too??

At least hit the goddamn ball.

The USA is certainly having a tough go of it with Algeria thus far.

And Rooney whifs again.

This is more convincing stuff by England, Slovenia are awful, they're lucky they're not down by 4 or 5.

Dempsey hits the post...then misses a wide open net on the rebound.

Although he hasn't played well his presence alone creates issues for the defense that no other English attacker creates. They still have to pay attention to him and play him as if he's in good form. You watch enough football to know that putting Bent there wouldn't do that.

Yup but as long as it's only 1 it'll be a nervy finish. Slovenia will have to make a push soon.
