World Cup Second Round - England v Ecuador SPOILERS

i hope neville is fit for sunday. the main problem with england is the wing attacks. beckham doesn't/can't run past players. i don't think ive seen him take on a fullback since the tournament started, it makes it easier for their fullbacks to get forward instead. neville will atleast get forward and make the fullback work before getting a cross in. carragher doesn't get forward enough and from our last 2 matches there has been no attack from the right. joe cole cuts inside to much..turn the fullbacks inside out and get a dangerous cross in from the byline.

imo this is our main problem. when lennon came on vs trinindad+tobago the team looked totally different and more dangerous because we weren't just attacking from the middle but from the wings as well...we just need balance, beckham doesn't give us anything other than a cross from the halfway line...

I usually hate ballistic's england bashing but those pics are just so funny

As for the score? 3-3

Doohickey · 23 Jun 2006 at 21:20

Carrick to start, Hargreaves at right back?

I'd rather see Lennon for Beckham.

I think it a early exit for england to much media hype and pressure to win the world cup

Pigeon_Killer · 23 Jun 2006 at 22:37

I think it'll be a very close game. Maybe 1-0 or 2-1 after extra time. I think that's as far as we'll get given our injury concerns and the tactical prowess of swede head. It's heart breaking to know we have the players both in the squad and at home who could've delivered the trophy if we had a decent manager.
