This has benefits.

Practice breaking down a defence

That tackle was hilariously bad though

And yet they've been the better team since going down to 10.

Roy has really screwed us up with his determination to shoe horn Rooney into the team. We were so good against Germany and yet in the space of a couple of months Roy has put us back 2 years.

This is the first time we've played this shape. This is the right game to try something. I doubt we will play like this against Russia.

I sincerely hope we never play like this again.

This is like Hyypia's teams with everyone playing out of position.Why is Rose not playing wide but almost CM when we are in their half?

Roy said he had stopped experimenting after the last two games. In which case we are ****ed as this is abysmal.

Spot on and why we will never succeed at international level square pegs in round holes

Square pegs in round holes perfectly describes it.

4 years ago we had too many central midfielders and now too many strikers

I disagree, this is how we're going to play. Look at the squad he picked, we've got no wide players, he has to play this formation. Not good.

Hodgson's interview after the match included him saying we need both formations for the tournament.

He's lulling everyone into a false sense of security. Wheel whin.

Or possibly not :dunce:

But we have no wingers, no width across midfield. Just a collection of goal scorers but hardly any assist between them. Nobody who will create the goals.


So who out of the world class players would you have picked?

We don't have any wingers.

I personally would have taken Townsend, but to say his the answer is just wrong
