I must be watching a different England game from the rest of you, because I'm still seeing the same mistakes as the last 2 games.
yep. Sooner see Jones than Johnson
He really doesn't...Johnsons biggest issue is his lack of concentration... Funnily enough the issue Jones has. Jones is not a better right back then Johnson, if anyone comes in for Johnson it's Flanagan.
Given the circumstances and the fact the Hondurans want blood I'm letting a few bad touches etc go. Need to sort it out in the second half though.
England England, I can honestly say watching paint dry is more enjoyable. Really excited to watch real teams play, hopefully one day England can play football to a standard that is acceptable of a countrys main sport.
Sorry if it seems like I am been a troll but what a boor fest, the team, coach and staff are dire. We have no hope, hope we get knocked out quick to save the nation from this humiliation.

Surely we could find that Jones gurning at players like Suarez would put them off when shooting? I feel we're missing a trick not playing Jones.
Johnson has his own trick, thinks he's a magician, one second he's there, the next he's gone... unfortunately opposition players don't get put off by the huge gaping whole at right back and run right through it. he also needs to go back to hiding a rabbit in his hat rather than his talent.
Flanagan isn't in the squad is he?
Christ you're a misery. This is the best England team to watch for as long as I can remember. Are we brilliant? No. But we're improving significantly, have some exciting young players, have some pace and movement, and are not a bad team to watch.
Yeah, mistakes are still there, but it is refreshing to see an England team with some technically good players going forward, with good movement etc. Sturridge, Llalana, even Welbeck playing alongside Rooney and Gerrard is pretty solid. Plus Wilshere, Sterling, Ox(when fit) and Barkley to come in. An exciting young team imo, and I never thought I would be saying that about England!...We look a lot more dynamic than I have ever seen.

Stand by list. I'd bring him in for Chamberlain.
He seemed to go into stand up comedian mode as soon as they had to fill time, I thought that stadium football manager might punch him at some stage especially when he was taking the **** for them not having a roof.
Leaving a LOT of gaps!
