Heskey 
LOL! he almost fell over for the first goal and then Kanu style misses from 2 yards out. Seriously, are people just too scared to tell him face to face he's ****?

Aaron Lennon in *not-being-able-to-cross-to-save-his-life* non-shocker. You might as well pick Dwayne Chambers on the right, he's quick as well and he might get 1 in 10 crosses right. Lennon is pointless at the moment.

Lennon impressed in the carling cup final until he had to cross, he was giving evra some problems.
He will give people problems but it means nothing if hes pushed to the line and has to cross.
Johnson has just put a perfect cross in, why can't they stick Lennon with Johnson/Beckham in training and teach the damn fool how to cross !
Soldato
As I said, you might as well have Dwayne Chambers, you get the same thing: Someone quick down the right who can't cross a football. Lennon has great, quick feet but cannot put a cross in and is ergo utterly pointless in the England setup.

Other than the fact we're unable to play a final ball, be it by Gerrard, Rooney, Lampard or especially lennon, why aren't we about 5 up here? I'd have put Burton Albion against these jokers and expected a win tbh.

Do they get paid to play internationals?
To be blunt.. yes.. lots...
Man of Honour
Thought it was free for some reason, or in the past have some players refused payment?
Soldato
Ffs Terry! Beckham does what we've only done twice previously all match and delivered a good ball and JT takes away what was a nailed on goal for Crouch
Never known of any player to refuse there pay for there country. They get paid bonus's as well for goals, cup advancement, etc.
I remember lots of stories about certain teams that if they progressed to certain rounds in the competition then they all would get a million each from the king / president, etc.
The only thing I can think of where they do spurn there fees or give them to charity is on the testimonials.

Brilliant error by boruc int he NI game - totally the same thing as paul robinson way back when. The rangers fans are going to be loving this next time the old firm play!
Personally I think these matches are just getting in the way of the Premiership - I can't understand why they can't wait until after the leagues finished.
