We were leaking goals when Defoe was on. We were much tighter when Heskey came on.

adam johnson was a much much worse admission. deffo.

100% agreed

gerrard playing on the left was never a good idea

[Hertford Hoop]

Countless reasons why we were poor

Clueless
Talentless
Rooney mania
Lamps and Gerrard in same team
Gerrard on the left
Johnson not an international
Defensively pish poor
No width
No passion
Hype
Unfit players
Gutless
Wealthy players who couldn't give a damn
Naive
Heskey on for Defoe
Wright Phillips on
Pish poor


Positives
Great fans
Many will end their international careers

Me
Surprisingly OK, easier to take when you are sh!te and not so easy when you know you were the better side (Italia 90 and Euro 96)

Sorry Facto, absolut tosh.
Walcott couldn't win us a corner, let alone a game.
Like Bent, he had chances (plural) to prove his worth, but failed dismally.
Never beat his man, never delivered a cross.
Johnson or Young a much better shout.

Like Heskey, If he can't a get a regular start for his club, why should England select him ?

Forget the peripherals, our main men were found wanting for 4 games, 70 mins.
Rooney, Lampard, Gerrard, Terry are our spine and none of them can take any credit over the last 3 weeks.

I agree.

Walcott would have been better than that mug wright-phillips though.

[QPR1976]

I meant bar 70 mins......sorry! 70 mins was good out of 280.

[QPR1976]

Walcott or Wright Phillips ? Neither ! Not at a World Cup.

[G.T.P]

We were leaking goals when Defoe was on. We were much tighter when Heskey came on.

the germans stopped trying to score at 4-1. they were happy with the scoreline and nearly everytime they went forward they just ran it into the corners and held it there. nothing to do with the aston villa reserve who capello wouldnt play cos he was out of form and not playing for his club

[Nik29]

What is Walcott actually good at?

He is insanely quick but has NO end product, NO crossing ability.

SWP was a mistake as well.

The biggest mistake was not taking ADAM JOHNSON. Why not include a player that has been keeping SWP out of a City side whilst not even playing in the position he grew up playing????

[QPR1976]

Sorry again. For 280 read 360 !
Bleedin alcohol & maths, they don't mix well.
