i don't think it was a bad peformance from us,sure its not exciting but i watched it twice and we had more of the game than you first think,ukraine was unlucky they played well but are just not good enough,
so with goal line technology then they would have given the goal but not gone back 15 seconds to say it was offside,crazy,crazy authorities,you either have technology or you leave it to the refs and the human element,you cannot have a bit of both,just take your pick what would you rather have,
so france got well beat by the swedes,not as easy as people think sweden but we know them well in england,so glad we avoided spain and get an extra day,its anyones with england v italy and great to be back in the big games as it is what its all about,the french are the type of team that might beat spain as you just never know with the french whats going on and they prefer the less physical teams
anyway can't wait for sunday the big time has arrived now,its great to be a part of it,we look ok i think and i'd say young played alright yesterday,really tried to do his job well which is not an easy one,lescott is playing well and with gerrard,terry and cole we have real quality players there,as ajesent said cole was so close to a deserved goal he plays his heart out
the ox should have put theo in there at the end for a good chance,these two players are very useful to bring on when people are knackered as they can really shift,we finally have some options,shame lampard and wilshere aren't fit as we could really do with some back up in the middle
