Brizzle Jordan Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 We don't win this and we really are in a bad position. Must win imo. I just pray we don't finish second place as we could get humiliated by Spain in the quarters as they look like winning their group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Ian M Posted June 15, 2012 Admin Share Posted June 15, 2012 A small note that I think has gone unmentioned thus far, England sides of the past have been criticised for not all singing the national anthem & I presume Roy is behind the whole team now singing the words.

Welbeck might have been an option running from deep but despite his protestations, the route to Carroll was well covered. For me, its pleasing that we have created 3 pretty decent opportunities to score so far & if Roy calms us down a little at half time I can see us running out 2 or 3 nil winners tonight.

fka dagest Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Two technically poor sides. Ibrahimovic is head and shoulders above everyone else. England (Gerrard in particular) do deliver well into the box though. Not a bad performance for me, but I'll be surprised if we get beyond the next round. I just find it tragic that the BBC commentary obviously think England's goal is a vindication of the old fashioned lump it in the box to the big no 9 method. It might beat Sweden and other average international sides, but it's the reason England will never win anything. I really hate hearing Lawrenson and his smart alec prattling.

Brizzle Jordan Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 Typical England tournament performance, just like all the other tournaments unfortunately. Ah well, I expected nothing more so only disappointed that it was so predictable - poor old Roy is no different to all the others in that he can't make a silk purse from a sows ear, but he could set the team up a bit better and not play into Swedens hands in the same way as all the other managers before him. Worst game so far and probably rivals the opening game in terms of lack of quality. Not really worth watching, so off down the pub for a bite to eat and a couple of pints.
