I really cannot believe they played that poorly, lumping the ball forward again and again like a Premiership team fighting relegation. Lampard and Gerrard proved for the million billionth time they shouldn't play together. Capello needs to have the courage to drop one of them when Barry's fit, if not before. I switched over to ITV as Heskey was being taken off. Tydesley and Townsend thought he was outstanding. Anyone watching could see he was crap, including Capello who took him off. What is wrong with pundits and commentators in England? Are they told to not honestly criticize the team? It's so embarrassing to watch them. |
Actually I thought their game was decent (maybe as a german I have lower standards, lol), but their offense didn't really create good chances .. Rooney a world class stiker ? I'm not convinced.
Heskey probably doesn't have any striking skills judging by the way he missed his big chance, but I thought he played pretty well .. the most disturbing thing on the pitch in my opinion was Carragher.
BTW they really didn't nominate Hargreaves? Did he have a dreadful season or are his legs broken? I can't imagine England going anywhere without him tbh.
