i reckon he'll play crouch on his own, and Gerrard as the 'support striker' 5 in midfield boring or what Can't see it. Trying a new formation against Croatia didn't work out too well last time, he's at home in front of a newly-expectant audience, we need to win (although a draw would do, playing fo...

You need a culture of the good getting through for the excellent to emerge. And for the good to get through you need a culture of developing the promising. There is a real difficulty in England-qualified players getting through. There is a higher proportion of home-grown players in the italian and ...

There are no serious British contenders for the next manager, and that is a really serious comment on the domestic game. There are only about 50 England-qualified players playing in the Prem most weekends - and none of any note playing abroad. That is an even more serious comment on the domestic ga...

And they asked Jol aswell. Say what you like about Gartside ambition, despite having approaches turned down left, right and centre, our search for a new boss looks practically dignified in comparison. In what way? If you're going to get snubbed, you might as well get snubbed by someone decent. Aye ...

Even Mourinho can only pick from a squad of shite though. Look how well Ericksson has done now he doesn't have to pick England players. Oh for goodness sake. England have an absolutely quality squad, but the manager doesn't know how to use them. He's scared to drop one of Lampard/Gerrard who simply...

Ian Wright talks like he's got a pair. I like him because he's honest. Alright he has a vested interest in having his (step)son in the team, but who would act differently if it were them? What I couldn't stand was Mary f*cking Poppins shit- :evil: eating grin when he realised he had an opportunity ...

There's so many reasons not to like England, and barring a quirk of Geography little reason to actively support them. Only a scouser could say that. So convinced our their own superiority, so self based ... yet always craving admiration & approval ... whilst not wanting ever to join in with anythin...

We need a manager with the presence and stature to drop players who simply don't perform. No matter how well they do for their clubs if they don't perform for England, drop and leave out.

Well played Croatia Bilic for ENGLAND. Croatia were excellent. England were awful. Completely outplayed. Technically inferior. How many games do we need to realise Gerrard isn't international class. He isn't fit to lace Modric's boots which actually he couldn't have done tonight because he got nowh...

not going through would see the back of old redface and probably give the team a well deserved kick up the arse too. Sadly I doubt it, my equine chum. If they win it's their glory, if they lose it's the manager's fault. This is the kind of blame-free cosseted head-in-clouds existence which is encou...

Or pehaps when a certain Scouse midfielder who has in my opinion had about 15 good minutes on a pitch whilst playing for England and the rest of the time been anonymous at best is described as a "world class player" and we build a midfield to let him "play" . Hahaha, get a hold of yourself. How man...

Re: England at the Euros

Y'know, maybe we shouldn't bother. We're almost always utter wank at the Euros, because we don't have an Egypt or summat to warm up against and justify o'ervaulting ambition. France 60 did not enter Spain 64 knocked out in preliminary qualifying round by France Italy 68 qualified; knocked out in fi...

Cherry picking some of Europes best players with a virtually open ended chequebook for me does not make you a great manager!

Oh I don't doubt that he's building a good young foundation. In fact I don't doubt it so much that I said it about four posts ago. :wink: Instructive comparison with Citeh there, though. Yon mon at the Council House looks like a good manager. I reckon he could regularly take England to the quarter-...
