Re: England v Portugal

from what I've seen it's the same type of england teams we've had in the past. Great individual strikers, pretty good defenders and a shit midfield that cant control a game or dictate play in anyway.
So we'll get out of the group through the individual prowess of some players and then get to a team that has a proper midfield and get slaughtered.
I can now see why Woy is deperate for Wilshire to play. He seems like the only english player that play the midfield role properly like they do on the continent. We just kick and run and are not patient and cant build properly from midfield. We will get found out as usual..
And Rooney is just the new scapegoat, before it was Becks. There are 11 players on the pitch. 1 player does not make a team great or shit. It's just a lazy blame game.

Vardy and Kane moved out of the middle to accomodate Rooney likewise Ali moved to the left where his strongest position is playing where Rooney did last night.
Spot on. Joke.

"now I have not got a fucking clue what is going on??"
You aren't the only one, mate. Woy has completely fucking confused everyone now with last nights set up. It's almost like we go into another major tournament with drawing boards still at the ready.
I think Woy is confused and now the players are confused.
Why?
Rooney is being accommodated and Woy can talk about all the loyalty he likes. There. Are. Better. Players. In. The. Position. He. Plays.
But Woy won't admit it. He knows. But he won't admit it. And to save face what does he do? Compromises our chances of winning a major tournament.
If Rooney is striker then should be ahead of Vardy or Kane? No. If he is a midfielder should he be ahead of Ali or Wilshere? No.
End of.

They was superb v a very good Dutch side Mo Mo... only a 0-0 but gave them an absolute run around... couple of goals disallowed and hit the woodwork... but granted Ireland and Egypt and Belgium games were a bit shit... actually highlight of the EIRE was when Lineker shat himself

Let's not get our cocks out too much about 1990 Soldinho. Apart from the semi England were shite.

Loved Robson in 1990... bringing in Mark Wright and playing sweeper system... can NEVER imagine Woy doing that ...

Makes the program about sir Alf even more impressive as he played people in their correct position. Greaves would have played on the wing last night

Yep WC 2014 properly dumped out. Before that can argue cheating / bad ref decsions and shit penalties have been our downfall.

I don't expect too much. But I do expect that fucking Fagan talking Owl looking twat Hodgson to play players in their right positions.
We always have fuck all luck. We always have injuries. We always end up playing the favourite. But we don't help ourselves by playing players out of position.
Vardy and Kane basically played as wingers last night. Embarrassing. Rooney virtually our central striker. Pathetic. Kane taking set free-kicks and corners. Jesus wept. Confusing everyone by introducing a new formation one game prior to the tournament. Mong.

we've had zero luck, cheating cunts pulling every trick under the sun and incompetent referees
I agree about france. easy group and a very strong midfield/attack. I still think their defence is average but it'll be hard getting the ball off them

We bottle it in big tournaments. That's a fact.
We also have had fuck all luck as well.

Not moaning Bolty just stating a fact... so perhaps with in what is on paper a far weakened squad in this championship compared to other years that maybe we should not expect too much... as we know how it always fucking ends up !!
