I must admit that I was supporting Arsenal at the start of the game but, by the end of the first half, I had moved my allegiance squarely behind Chelsea; not because I support the winning team, but because Chelsea's superiority was based upon England players.
How good were Terry and Cole today? The pass from Terry for the first goal was worthy of Zidane and the Cole cross was weighted to perfection. Sure Drogba's finish was close to sublime, but the goal was laid on a plate by two England defenders. At the back, despite Arsenal's array of attacking talent, both the England boys didn't just look comfortable, they looked in control. Both made brilliant challenges in the box, albeit Cole and Terry had already played Eduardo offside before Cole's brilliantly timed tackle. On this showing, they are both World Class in my book.
Meanwhile, the rehabilitation of Joe Cole continues apace. He is not yet back to his best but he is getting there. Whether he starts in South Africa, or is used as a replacement, he is destined to play an important role as we win the World Cup. And then there is Lampard, bossing the midfield and oozing class throughout.
And Arsenal's support of our World Cup bid? Well Wenger sent on Walcott when the game was already lost!

West Ham have more chance of winning the league than England have of winning the world cup; well ok that's an exaggeration but England won't win the world cup despite being the best supported team in the most passionate football (you'll have to get used to calling it soccer) loving country in the world
Rubbish Deane. Behind Brazil we have the best chance, and Brazil will crash out in the quarter finals.
no I have a plan the local police are geared up to arrest John Terry on the grounds that he consorts with a known drug dealer,Frank Lampard for foul and derogatry language about a racial miniority (west ham fans) Ashley Cole for promoting slavery,Joe Cole for supporting Chelsea as a kid a disease amongst all plastics which needs to be propely controlled,Rob Green for looking so nervous he must have done something wrong,Defoe for associating witrh Bernard Mendy (surely an offence of some sort)Carlton Cole for embezzlement forall those years he drew a wage prentending he wasn't very good I can come up with more but I'm bored and that's pretty much scuppered your chances already We are already in the process of constructing a cell big enough for Fat Frank
we as South Africans of course have such huge faith in our Bafana we'd probably celebrate like we've won the world cup if we manage to score a goal or perhaps "in Parreira we trust"
well after that miserable attempt at humour I think it's time for cocoa and an early night

Get back to Moby Dick mate, that will wipe the smile off your face! You watch, we are going to win the World Cup. Australia will knock out Brazil!
I hope we don't play Gerrard, he isn't worthy of the England shirt in my opinion, only the boring red one.
