Appalling game tonight

I am disappointed with the lack of attempts and the misses! However I don't think Italy have played all that brilliantly either.

England's defensive performance has been solid enough but we seem to be struggling to keep the possesion long enough for it to be meaningful

Post 516525 by Dangerous Dave on 2012-06-24 21:30:36

Even the commentator is getting miffed with the lack of teamwork

TBH I think whoever wins this will be taken apart by Germany.

[quote=stribo;516528]TBH I think whoever wins this will be taken apart by Germany.[/quote] Most definitely. Mrs Bomb was saying that it would be better if we lost to save another embarrassing match against Germany.

The amount of contact and shirt grabbing in this game is disgusting! I've seen less in a gay bar on a grab a man night!!!!

and I have come to the conclusion that Rooney is the most overrated player ever... and the officials are all Italians, or been paid off by Blatter

Post 516551 by Dangerous Dave on 2012-06-24 22:07:23

Rooney has been crap, thats for sure. Think Terry should get an award.

Post 516552 by t5 pete on 2012-06-24 22:08:35

very close

Post 516561 by Dangerous Dave on 2012-06-24 22:16:02

Our manager is a joke too hobbling around with his hands in his pockets.

Post 516579 by stribo on 2012-06-24 22:28:06

Another tournament, the same story.

Post 516581 by Pinup_gal on 2012-06-24 22:31:09

After much yelling, swearing and general sofa coaching of our lame arsed team, I will admit to sitting here and having a cry and then being relieved I ain't gotta watch any more footie for a bit!

Post 516584 by Dangerous Dave on 2012-06-24 22:33:42

CRY? Wuss :D

Post 516585 by smithy on 2012-06-24 22:35:57

England got a lot further than anybody though so good on them but I still say Germany will take the Italians apart .the only thing than done my head in is no attacking or tackling ether

[quote=smithy;516585]England got a lot further than anybody though so good on them but I still say Germany will take the Italians apart .the only thing than done my head in is no attacking or tackling ether[/quote] Agreed. England did well to get this far, manager has only been in the job 5 minutes.

Post 516590 by shepbomb on 2012-06-24 22:47:24

Germany will conquer Europe, England the rest of the world, Dare to Believe

Post 516592 by stribo on 2012-06-24 22:48:22

Unfortunately it was the wrong manager.

Post 516594 by Pinup_gal on 2012-06-24 22:50:37

I don't think the manager was the wrong choice! Certainly better than other names that were bandied about! He got them this far, he couldn't do any more other than stand in the goal with Hart maybe?!

Post 516600 by Volvostorm on 2012-06-24 23:06:15

We lost again, what a shame! :P

Considering the time that Roy had to sort the England squad out, you have to give him credit where it is due. Very difficult for a manager to come in at such a late stage. We have WC qualifiers soon so he now has more time to sort the squad out. As for Rooney, I think it would have been better getting him on the last 20 mins of the 2nd half when the other side are tiring. He may have kept up there. Passing in the Italians half was terrible however our defense, I reckon, was excellent. Still room for improvement there but we need a massive improvment up front. Maybe its time to do away with the old players (keeping Gerrard though) and start with a fresh team.
