['poolfan]We need Gerrard out there['poolfan]

On a serious note, England were always gonna be crap with a weak manager, no matter what people say Mclaren is just another Sven, but English.
I think if Big Sam had got the job he wouldn't take none of this ****

McBain · 11 Oct 2006 at 19:46

The problem is we're fielding far too many players who simply aren't performing at club level.

our biggest problem tonight... lack of passion.

Not one person out there has shown a lot of passion. Terry was at fault for first goal, second goal was just one of those things.

Where's the leader out there ? Is there one person out there prepared to grab the game by the scruff of the neck ? Parker started well... but just not good enough.

Nail. Head.

The England team is full of stars who seem to rely on each other to create that spark that you need to win a game with confidence. They should all be doing it, not waiting for the next guy to create something out of nothing.

If we had big Sam it would be long ball even more than we're playing now!

Should have been O'Neil end of.

But the FA didn't have the balls for that!

Its why crouch should be dropped, the lack of pace upfront causes us problems all over the park. The coats just pushed up knowing crouch couldnt get behind them.

For years we have pumped the ball up and given the ball right back to them. Inviting pressure. Yet no england manager stops that.

Oh well.

Steedie · 11 Oct 2006 at 19:47

OMG what is Shev doing? Thats twice hes blatantly dived now

Martin O'Neill was the man for the job but he was never gonna be a big enough yes man to suit the FA.

No one wanted Mclaren as boss and now his honeymoons over he's gonna get a right caning in the press tomorrow.

2 - 0 Ukraine

Shevchenko - 2 dives = 1 red card, 1 penalty

Sem · 11 Oct 2006 at 19:50

its over

was hoping for a last min Defoe hat-trick

KennyBhoy · 11 Oct 2006 at 19:50

Was never a penalty and never sending off.......Ref's a complete ****** and should go back to his day job of being a fireman and stay 500 yards away from any football pitch....Period!

That'll be why he's worth 30 million, for his ability to change a game. No through scoring but through cheating :mad:

agreed never a sending off or a penalty but ukraine did deserve their win...
smith set out to defend again and it didnt work.
we should be defending like that against france but not this mob.
ukraine havent shown anything like the class of the french

Agreed, was never a penalty and in no way a sending off. Ref's having a shocker but no real surprise after we beat France. Ukraine a top quality side so 2-0 not that bad a result for us.
