We've just won Gold in Sailing, Rowing, Cycling, etc. Reached the Rugby World Cup Final two tournaments on the run, won the Cricket Ashes in 2005, yet we're rubbish at Football and it's still our favourite sport. No to mention English footballers are too big for their boots and get paid way too much. It's obscene isn't it.

 

how can they be rubbish ? rooney , gerrard , terry , lampard , j. cole rubbish??

 

Yes.. rubbish when you put them together in one team... I'm sorry but it's the truth...

England lacks a creative player like Sneijder, Deco or Bergkamp...  and a second striker..

and why does England don't have a decent Goalkeeper??? I mean van der Sar, Chech, Reina, Almunia, Gomes.. al foreigners! And no David James isn't decent..

because if they had one they would be the dream team ?????

u don't have to own all the good player to win

wasn't sneijder in holland team in euro 2008 ? with an excellent goal keeper? with the best -imo- striker van rod vannist?

england always play well but no luck -italy is the opposite, italy forever ;)-

England palyed very very good in 2006 cup and euro 2004 but again no luck

rubbish is very very unfair word to use -except for the goalkeeper u can call him whatever u want ;)-

Really? Did you see the game against Trinidad & Tobago? England sucked. By the way 15 golds for Britain in Olympics, our cycling team are now deemed too good, fantastic but we must keep this up.
