And what's worse is Alli looks lost. Move Rooney forwards for me. Alli off for Rashford or Vardy.Worthy4England wrote:Whoever said Rooney in this role was like Scholes needs their bumps feeling.

I don't watch United much, but thought they still played him further forwards.throwawayboltonian wrote:I said he looked like him for United (which he has). England...not so much...Worthy4England wrote:Whoever said Rooney in this role was like Scholes needs their bumps feeling.
His range of passing.just doesn't seem to be anywhere near Scholes level, to me.

Like Scholes though he's often been found wanting at international level. Rooney hasn't had a good tournament since Portugal 04.Worthy4England wrote:I don't watch United much, but thought they still played him further forwards.throwawayboltonian wrote:I said he looked like him for United (which he has).

We're still incredibly pedestrian but can go sideways better than anyone . Reminiscent of Freedmans sides

Re: Euro Championships 2016
Rooney is dreadful tonight.
Why we persist with the slow pedestrian sideways build up I will never know.

Re: Euro Championships 2016
We haven't learned anything from the Slovakia game. Why are we still trying to go through the middle?

Re: Euro Championships 2016
Could see this in the friendlies. We didn't have a set side of system. It has been total winging it game by game. You don't prepare for a tournament like this.
Roy is shite. It was very evident from the outset. The players aren't anywhere near as good as they think. But they're better than this.

Re: Euro Championships 2016
We can't even do the basics. Players paid a fortune who can't deliver a reasonable pass or cross time and time again. Bunch of chokers

Well, that was pathetic.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Re: Euro Championships 2016
Said it in the friendlies. You prepare the team you want to play. He just went through a variety of systems and selections.throwawayboltonian wrote:I don't know if I'd quite go that far, we looked very good in qualifiers and in most of the friendlies but his tactics, poor selections, lack of adaptability and plan B or even C for his teams in the finals are evident. Said it after the World Cup, and in the group stages regardless of how far we went - he needs to go. We need someone to develop a fairly young and promising squad.BWFC_Insane wrote:Could see this in the friendlies. We didn't have a set side of system. It has been total winging it game by game.

Worst English manager we've ever had. By a mile. Clueless. Laughable.
How would anybody be motivated by that creature?
Get him out.
Also Rooney should never play for England again. Nor half a dozen of those players.
Pay Klinnsmann whatever he wants. Whatever he wants.

You couldn't even say we were unlucky. Despite his cock up, Hart made two great saves...They had more shots on target than us.
Re: Euro Championships 2016
We are very transparent. Teams know that we have now width so they just have to pack the middle and try to hit us on the break, and we have no answer to it.

Re: Euro Championships 2016
Well done Iceland, played an absolute blinder, reminded me of us away at Arsenal undr Sam.
As for England, well thats what you get for abandoning a decent pass-and-move game for the tried and proved to be a failure same old shite. Pity, thought we were moving in the right direction.

You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.
