In Smallings defence, I think he was supposed to marking for the goal, but Cleverley got in his way

Plus Mertesacker is a beast, the best in Europe have had trouble against him.

Would rather the youngsters get a chance than take dinosaurs like Terry to the World Cup

But even when Hart was making that big save at the start of the second half Smalling was ballwatching. He doesn't have that sense of urgency and awareness that you need.

Hardly a shot at goal.They look much more like scoring than we do.

Expect the worst in Brazil then we wont be disappointed!Part of the time watching Sweden Portugal. Where are our goal scorers compared to Ronaldo or Ibramovich?

This will probably be considered negative. Sorry!

I tell you what though, at least we look like we're trying to play some decent football. Tournament after tournament we've gone there looking like we can't pass, and just dig in to get results. I'd rather us go with a bit of adventure and playing some nice stuff and go out, then the absolute dirge we've had at tournament finals for the last decade.

we look ok....except for at the back with crosses.

and with a flat 4 in midfield we will get turned over next summer easily. flat 4 in midfield stopped in the late 90's I thought.

Unpopular opinion, but:

What is the point of Sturridge? Not yet seen him be convincing in an England shirt.

Sturridge isn't good enough.

Nor is Rooney against top teams but at least Sturridge has pace so there's more hope for him than Rooney long term playing against the best.

Boring game. England lack fluidity.
