1. Not so much over rated...
...as over exposed.

Any thoughts on Wayne Rooney or the game between Holland and the Czech Republic last night BTW?

4. Czech republic
best game I've seen for ages, second best if you were the French last sunday.

Nedved's shot in the 85th(?) minute was stunning and were it not for the crossbar would have been goal of the tournament.

5. Yes, he is.
Fabio Cannavaro and Nedved are just as good, and Fabio is MAD good-looking, to boot! ;)

7. Good at best.
Take away his right foot, and he has nothing. He cannot create space off the dribble, his fitness is often questionable and his midfield marking is not really up to the standard that either La Liga or the Premiership demands...

Yes Man United finished 3rd in the Premiership this season. Do you think that David Beckham would have made a difference? I think not. It was Arsenal's year this year. To not lose a match in the Premiership is an impressive feat.
