Gerrard’s attacking capabilities are being wasted if he continues to sit in front of the back four.
All in all not a bad performance, Roy’s got the job done I think.
ribery again proves himself to be a flat track bully
nasri and Benzema did more than him but id have loved to see ben arfa from the start
England has tried by holding france 1-1 its a good result
The Ox played well in spurts, but you could see that’s he’s not yet the full package
Great talent
where is wolcott for england with his pace they would have done better
Judging by the way both Sweden and Ukraine played, neither should be much trouble for England
There’s however the small part that the Swedes go out if they don’t win agianst England…..
Come on guys, England didn’t show anything….. a bit like Chelsea against Barcelona (agree with Nasri), or looking like Italian team in the 80s; 8 players in the back!!
Lucky than France did not play too well.
Let’s be realistic, we’ll have to do much better to hope beating Sweden or Ukraine otherwise ealry holiday for the squad……….
I would strongly stress that the way certain referees are doing their job is not as professional as during the match (PORTUGAL V GERMANY). Portugal played betty at the end of the first half of the match and marked one goal which should have been validated but refused by the main referee. This kind of behavior of the referees contributes a lot in the disqualification of some good teams and benefitting some middle or bad teams.
Since when has it been acceptable for an English side to settle for a draw against France (or anyone for that matter), in a cup game? If you wear three lions on your chest, you’d better play to win. Granted the defense looked organized but with just three (3) goals in last three games now, more use should be made of midfield players to support the forwards. additionally, the forwards need to be able to run more at the defense,
As expected, draw will be a better results
We need to get gerrard to pass it short more and the sooner lamps and the roon come back the better! Need to retain poss more and use young and oxlade down the wings.
