Well, so far - who's played?
Lampard scored again for England. Maybe that'll help him find his shooting touch. Terry was back on the bench.
Cech kept a clean sheet against Romania. Carvalho and Ferreira played in that dismal draw against Lichtenstein, to whom they leaked as many goals as we have in 10 games this year!
Gallas missed a chance he probably should have buried against Ireland, who should have won, as John "didn't I use to be good?" O'Shea missed a pathetically easy chance. Ah, the ManUtd youth factory. Producing mediocrity after mediocrity. Mutu played - nothing to report. Smertin's Russia trounced Luxembourg.......I think that's about it. Oh, Eidur's Iceland couldn't score on Malta, and I'm not sure if Kezman played for S&M (what a horrible name for a country).

I think you forgot Duff. Skysports gave him an 8/10, so things are going well for him.

Good game for Gallas yesterday. Solid defense and was a bigger threat upfront than Henry.

What comment is that!!!? Gallas is a defender. He was very solid yesterday yes but to say he was a bigger threat than Henry!?

I'm actually inclined to agree with Zani here. Watched the game in Ireland and everyone seemed more worried about Gallas than Henry, especially in the last 20 minutes or so ! Gallas was constantly getting into the box & causing problems for the Irish defence.

Yeah, if you had paid less attention to O'Shea you might have remembered your own jewel... j/k... overall some good performances by the Chelsea players.

O'Shea's glaring miss was proudly played on TV. :p

Duff was very heavily marked, and didn't create very much. Still, he'll run riot against the Faroe Islands on Wednesday.

And with the exception of the miss, O'Shea was solid.

Gallas was dangerous in the second half. After Morrison went off.
