The Sun is really annoying at times. Big deal they had a couple of beers after crashing out.

I'm pretty sure this is the same paper that was laughing about Ricky hattons benders.

I agree. I don't see the big deal in them relaxing and having a bit of fun after being knocked out of the world cup. Do they have to look extremely depressed for the media to be satisfied?

Well the tabloids themselves are anti-social psychopaths. Go figure. :/

This is a group that gets to reunite only once every few months in which they're forced to work under a disciplinarian like Capello, and there's a good chance some of them won't get to return, and people have a problem with them sitting down, talking, and having some drinks?

It's like being a celebrity means you can't be human.

They did the same damn thing when Rooney was out with that Ankle problem. Caught him having a crafty pint watching the game and it was like the end of the world. How dare he.

Alcohol is more part of the English soccer culture than just about anything else.

Who cares? Jesus who reads, or even worse, buys this crap? Are peoples lives that boring? "Celebrity"=another opiate of the masses. Wish I was chillin' with my old team. A couple brews, some Js, a few laughs...miss you, bros
