    He has a brilliant goal kick in him as well..... :o

    Hahaha we say that and his defence lets him down and Team Sir Les score.

    Fingers cross for a penalty shoot out !

    Merse has a better pass and cross on him than most of the modern Arsenal team...and he did eat a black forest gateaux on the touchline for charity first half,that was so funny..did you miss that ?

    A lot of troubles too...i saw him on his debut against Man City ,in a 3-0 win..i was at Highbury.

    By coincidence im reading his autobiography at the moment,'How NOT to be a professional footballer' ,which is sooo Merse,but he has beaten his demons,which is a credit to him.

    Yeah, regular at Charlton and does well enough for them.

    They have done so well over the last few years, it's great to see. One point against Czech Republic should see them get 2nd place in their group behind Germany. Be a tough playoff game to get to the World Cup, but you never know.

    Wouldn't be surprised if they make it to the World Cup. The Czech Republic can be a challenge, though. Several great players in that team, including Bořek Dočkal, who is always capable to create chances.

    Wouldn't mind seeing Northern Ireland in the World Cup, seeing the way they've played in the matches I've seen. Norway simply lack the collective quality to compete with teams like Northern Ireland and The Czech Republic.

    Not looking forward to watching Norway away against Germany next week. Mesut Özil even makes defensive runs and slide tackles for the national side!

    At least clueless Sterling binned for Rashford.

    But Slovakia love a 0-0 and given how turgid we are the smart money is on a dismal drudge of game.

    About to see Norway play away against Germany now. Saying this will be a difficult game is an understatement.

    Belgium has qualified as the first team from the European zone, still think Martinez has no clue however.

    England's midfield is poor hopefully our attackers will bail us out

    ...and Draxler scores! Özil with a wonderful pass inside the box to Draxler, who easily shoots the ball inside the net.

    Draxler would have been something for Arsenal.

    3-0. Werner.

    The Hun with the cigars out, the jocks winning and England a shambles.

    Just need the greasy Argies to win 6-0 and that's the complete set.
