gordon s Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Watching Spain last night and knowing they had to win, brought memories of that night against Poland flooding back. The difference though was England played their hearts out and lost. The second memory was England in South Africa when they never even turned up. That was Spain last night. A team of brilliant individuals for their clubs who simply were not there at any time in the 90 minutes. Let's hope England learned from that. Losing is one thing, but losing without even trying is inexcusable.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Claude_Dreyfus Posted June 19, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 19, 2014 What is it we lack? Luck? Guile? Skill? Or just world class players? Phil Again...all of the above. Oddly enough, Wayne Rooney has been the player most criticised; however Gerrard seems to have been the weakest link for England in this competition. I know it is not completely fair to single out a single player, but Gerrard and Rooney are the senior players in the team. Still, it is valuable experience for players like Sterling, Barkley and Sturridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cary hill Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 More shots in total and more (powder-puff) shots on target than Uruguay and 58% possession apparently.... and more poor defending....and no world class player to make the difference..... unfortunately.

stannyblade Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 What do we lack ? That's easy CHRIS PORTER We were singing it for months.

S.A.C Martin Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 Put money on correct score lines for Group D this year. England 1 - 2 Italy England 1 - 2 Uruguay England 4 - 0 Costa Rica My accumulator is 2/3rds right and yet I think I'm going to lose my bet…! I should mention I also had England to make it to the knockout stages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
