Well this is the first game I have watched of this seasons internationals.
What a load of rubbish
.
How can a "team" of highly paid footballers put on such a sad show I don't know.At the moment,England are a million miles from winning the World Cup.
Playing like today,they wouldn't make the second stage.
OK my view of todays dross
Started so so and just got worse. Only one brightish thing to come out of it was the fact that Charlton's Luke Young had a pretty good game and is a worthy replacement for injured G Neville.
Other than that,the referee was hopeless.Missed a clearcut penalty when Owen was upended and carded Beckham for an innocent challenge
Poor Peter Crouch won't be an international football player while he has a hole in his a$$. Not entirely blameless though he had no support. Terry looked shaky,Owen was anonymous, Gerrard was really poor and can't show his L'pool form for England and Carragher is no left sided player.
What has become of England as a major player in the international league?
Don't blame Sven the butterfly for everything,although his substitutions baffle me. Crouch has a stinker yet Defoe is kept on the bench??.
No wonder I prefer Rugby Union
but I dont hold my breath about England this season either.
Oh the result, 1 - 0 to England
