No one went with him and James should have done better

good goal that to be fair - great movement.

Still, i'm sure Crouchy is capable of similar....

 

[FalmerforAll!**]

Serves us right for being so cocky.

They do say you can't polish a turd.......

 

[ali jenkins]

Were looking piss poor in defence!!

Good goal again

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Super goal that - Rooney, Gerrard, bang

 

[Kylies Stunt Arse]

Nice play there.

 

[Frutos]

Much the same as the first goal, simple, well-worked, effective.

 

[Kylies Stunt Arse]

Their goal was a great finish, not sure James could really have done better with it. Brown was nowhere and Ferdinand f***ed up and let him go.

it never ceases to surprise me just how well Crouch can actually play, it looks so wrong but he can keep the ball well and makes good, simple passes.

His goals to games ratio for England tells you that he is VERY underrated!!

and in contrast, im surprised how shit Brown can be and still get to stay on the park. for a defender he doesnt even tackle, cant pass and lacks pace. just why is he there, or at ManU for that matter, what do Fergie and Capello see the rest of us dont?

 

[SNOOBS]

Booing our own players

 

[ali jenkins]

Cole-Bridge
Barry-Hargreaves

Two like for like changes.

Time for Young to come on for the shitty Gerrard and hand over the captaincy to Rio

He, like Gerrard, seems to be a different player in a club shirt.

We look good when Rooney looks good it seems - all gone a bit quiet again

 

[beorhthelm]

not sure about Gerrard as MotM, though he played well. i thought Bently did more and set himslef up well for future inclusion.

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

Steven "eeeemmmmm" Gerrard!

How he got motm was shocking! Rooney was playing far better

 

[Frutos]

Perfect example I think of what to expect from England under Capello - it won't be flashy football, but I think it will be winning football more often than not (surely that's the important thing?).

The France game next month, although only a friendly, will be an interesting barometer for Capello to measure just where we're at, what works and what doesn't.

Overall I think there was nore good than bad from tonight, but I would hope that as the players get used to the new way things work with the next match!!
