Who the feck is this Glover character
Uncle Buck said:Agains the Swiss we did what was needed and won 3-0. The Portugal game we did end up playing like a Serie A fixture, holding on to what we had. It was not helped that we lost Rooney, brough Vassell on, who is similar to Owen, when in hindsight Heskey might have been a better option as he would have offered something different up front.

Find me any reputable football journalist who agrees with your point of view and I'll find you ten who don't.
maffew said:you're spot with the Vassell/Heskey thing, though it keeps happening, Sven trys to sit on 1-0 leads, makes a bad substitution and everyone sits there waiting for the inevitable goal in the 83rd+ minute
If it wasnt so close to the World Cup I'd say hes had his time though its too close now to change. 3 of the last 4 games have been bad, Saturday was ok though brought the wrong striker off I feel. Sven is the weakest link in the best team we've had in many years

KinkyGoebels said:why is that funny?
maffew said:its funny cos I just knew you were going to say that cos Uncle Buck said it first
Uncle Buck said:Funny or not, they are the biggest problem in that side, as they both perform the same role. It will be interesting tomorrow to see how we perform with King in the holding role.
maffew said:You are absolutely right in that the Gerrard Lampard thing is a big problem for us on the pitch, we must get the best out of of those 2 to get this team playing to its potential, if it means leaving one of them on the bench, fair enough. I said before it would be suicide to lose Sven now, but Gerrard and Lamps are much more key to the squad than he is IMHO
Ex Shelton Seagull said:The friendly with Argentina in November could be a very good test for the team. It's a chance to test ourselves against one of the favourites for the tournament in a European setting. If we beat them then I think it counts towards our World Ranking which could help our seeding.
