bit great grinding harm harsh jump
I think his first booking was a little bit harsh as well. To jump over a board, and as long as you're ... going to celebrate, you've just put us 2-1 up away from home, grinding out a great result, there's no harm in that at all.
great group top win
It's very important for the knockout stages, it's important to come top psychologically and to win the group would be a great achievement.
aim boys coming few hated hungry maybe moment people popular portuguese quite rest taste team win won
We've got the Portuguese boys who have won a few things and the rest of us who are hungry for a taste of it. It's the right combination to win things. I think we are quite popular at the moment because people like to see a new team coming through, but maybe our aim is to be hated because we keep on winning.

We felt that the image wasn't exactly right for South Dakota State University rodeo.
player years names
I have played against (Michel) Platini, (Diego) Maradona, (Johan) Cruyff and played with George Best — a lot of big names, but none of them has been able to do what Messi does. Two years ago I said that the best player I played against was Maradona and the best player I have played with was Bestie. But I can now say I have never seen a player as good as Messi. He’s in a league of his own.
country retirement jobs
I love playing for my country. I see it as the biggest privilege of my career, so there's no way I'm going to volunteer to give that up. I want to go on for as long as I can. I've got 68 caps and I'd love to think I could get 100. I know there are some players who reach their 30s and announce their international retirement. I totally understand and respect their decisions. We are away a lot and for long spells. But although it's hard, we're doing one of the most privileged jobs in the world.
player careers looks
For me, Lionel Messi is quite clearly the best player ever. It’s a pleasure to put myself against him and when I finish my career it’s something I can look back on and know I’ve tested myself against the very best.
captains opinion
You don't have to be captain to have an opinion.
senior kids player
Some of the money from the senior players goes to helping out the younger kids. It is from the players' pool, the fines for being late and so on. Some will go to something like the tsunami appeal and some to helping out young players.
cheer home player
Often it feels like we are at a home match when we have so many fans there. The singing, the cheering helps the players. (on Chelsea playing on the road)
football said intervals
The manager could not even talk to us at the interval. He said we were bad.
dark littles my-own
When I was little, I didn't like being left on my own in the dark.
against bit extra fans great result retain run special
To retain it and get the result against them would be extra special and the fans would feel that too. They've been on a great run and put us under a bit of pressure.
good
We're not going to write them off, they're a good team. But if we keep winning, there's nothing they can do.
