Prime Time said:Absolute quality?? He may be winning the ball, but that is because the Paraguayian Forwards..heck the WHOLE Starting 11 for that matter look soooo slow. And are you watching the shots he is taking? Looks like Gerrard is trying to kill pidgeons that might be flying by..
Boomer said:Well BBC Radio had a thermometer on the pitch before kick off.
ckb2001 said:There's often a difference in temperature of the pitch to temperature of the air above it. Some parts of the Alps have a type of soil that can reach 160 or more degrees because it absorbs energy from the sun well, but the surrounding air is freezing.
Anyway, matchcast now says the tempurature is 81 degrees.
Boomer said:I'm sorry mate, but you have absolutely no clue about how to play the game of football. That's clear with the comments you continue to make. Grading a player doesn't come down to the couple of shots he has. Look at his work rate, the way he presses the ball, the way he wins the ball, gives and goes, plays the ball to feet, etc.
Boomer said:Yep, well last time I looked, they play the game on the pitch rather than in the air above it.

That is almost comical. Gerrard won balls, I said that in my previous post. But that is it. What did he do that was so amazing?? Juan Sorin does for Argentina what Gerrard did for England today. I am not saying Gerrard is bad, but he didn't have a great game...noone on England did.
ckb2001 said:The players feel the temperature of the air around them. The ball and the shoes are the only things in general that touch the pitch. So, the temperature today wasn't that hot for a soccer game.
