The best of the Betfair football forum

The Betfair Football forum has been buzzing since England overcame Switzerland last night. Here are the best of the comments about the excellent 3-1 victory...

"Can I be the first to congratulate Frank Lampard? His contribution to England's last two games was far greater than anything he has given us in the last five years. let's hope his contribution is exactly the same all the way up to, and including, the finals. Keep doing it just like that, Frank!" - Jim Smith

"I thought Wayne Rooney played well. He linked up well with Defoe and played better than he has done for England for a very long time." - Kenners

"Rio Ferdinand was England's best player by a distance in the 2002 and 2006 World Cups, and was a big loss in Euro 2004. His back injury may now be getting the better of him, but he's still ten times the player than Terry could ever dream of being. But I was pleasantly surprised by how well Phil Jagielka played last night, especially as he's not been great for us this season." - Max and Paddy

"The thick t**** in the media seem to ignore the fact the qualifiers are a drop in class from a tournament. It's okay looking good when the pressure isn't really on, but when it is we struggle big time." - Sintonian

"To win away from Wembley is always a plus, but it was Switzerland, who are not renowned for scoring goals. Again, as in EVERY MATCH, Glen Johnson was caught out of position neglecting his role as a defender - he will get really turned over by decent opposition." - Unbiased
