Maybe England can take comfort from WC winners Spain's 0-4 defeat against Portugal in Lisbon. Spain's worst defeat in the past 47 years

Long time I had been that impressed by Les Bleus! They defeated England 2-1 at Wembley last night. Two teams that sank at the World Cup. France looks like it is coping better in the disaster aftermath. Special satisfaction in seeing Gourcuff and Nasri really play together!

If you're talking about the JazzDoor reissue, I would not count on them to rectify this. I am pretty liberal with that kind of labels but avoid JazzDoor releases like the plague They are one of the worst label dealing with bootlegs! I stick to my FreshSound vinyl on that Miles!
