Who watched the England match last night, thoughts...

Post by Hatebreed »

Well even tho the score did not look too bad, for me it was still a total embarresment. Thought id never say this but I prefer to watch the other home nations instead. Both Wales and Scotland tho techically not as good put 100% into there games and deserved the results they got.

For me the England football team fell apart about 10 years ago, inflated wages, ego's and there celebrity staus have ruined it for me.

Anyone else....

I watched bits of it, I get too bored to watch a whole match. The first half was pants but they did play better in the 2nd half but they will need to inmprove against better teams. Saying that there are other teams that don't play well and still manage to do well at tournements (sorry to the German fans but Germany don't play well but get the results) and I think its netter to play badly and win than to play well and still lose.

Well Bert, England won 5-1. First goal was Kaz goalkeeping error, second was a Kaz own goal. They scored a goal due to an Ashley Cole error. Then they ran out of steam as ranked 131 in the World!!!!. It was embarrising watching £100's of millions of talent running round like headless chickens. A disgrace in my opinion, I was brought up on Stuart Pearce and Brian Robson, players that would die for their country, Lampard and Gerrard wont even mess there hair up for the cause!

Hope that helps...

well, dave, watching england play you now can easily see who is the manager (fabio capello)...his teams always play like that - not watchable, but successful ^_^ ...hope they will finally win a title in the near future.

..but it's sad to see becks play so rarely...he is still a fantastic player, but he should have never accepted that LA deal...would have been better to accept inter milan and play still some seasons in europe!! :D

Well and thats it with Beckham that is kinda an example for them all. It's all about the money and well, I guess the 'star' life in LA. Thats all they care about...not about playing some attractive and nice football for the fans.

yeah, you are definately right, too many players only think of the money...i thought becks has already enough of it :o

i think he already regrets having signed for LA galaxy as he has seen that the MLS has very low standard!!
