I love Scott Parker! He gives his all every game he gets stuck in, I had no issue hearing he was the captain. Thought it was good choice tbh.
Decent slide tackle to stop that shot as well.
So long as players give their best I am happy and you know you are always going to get that with him.
Also Sturridge, this stupid 'crisis' of strikers talk I kept hearing about from the media. It's not an issue for this game really. Sturridge has been in fine form so it makes sense to play him.
I was thinking earlier having him out on the wing, Young the other, Bent up front, Rooney playing that 1 in the middle role he is getting good at UTD and it's not a bad front 3/4.
Gerrard, can't even tell he is playing for the most part. Was pretty annonymous the other day and he had two hours to do something.

Not watched it bar the first 10-15mins when I was having dinner.
Hate watching England friendlies, worse than watching them play badly in a tournament.

LOL. Love how you are slating him and you aren't even watching. He's the best player in an England shirt and England are playing like a team, passing well and have starting going forward and had a few chances to score. We are more likely to score than Holland.
You mean the clutching at his chest like he was having a heart attack?
lol he'd been fairly heftily clattered by kuyt and de-jong and landed on a microphone. probably would've killed suarez (in an ideal world
)I didn't say he was playing bad today, it was a general criticism of his game that I have.

Well you said not acting as if he'd been shot, well regardless of whether it was that sore or not he did.

First time in many years i've actually enjoyed watching an England match, without having a nervous breakdown in the process
Feeling good

So so easy. Where was superman? No one protecting the defence.

Class from Robben 
Aye, maybe not beside Charlie Adams me thinks, or in a 2 man midfield without Lucas at best.
And Yay robben, pretty big holes in the midfield
