England

Ed's - multiboard please.

I do not support England as i am not from there but i have been lucky enough to watcn their last 3 games.

Although they do not play pretty football, they have got a winning mentality.
I saying that there are a few players that are doing great and some just wasted.

Here is what i have noticed in the last 3 games:
Hart - great keeper. Young and long career ahead.

Johnson - he has been good and bad. gave away cheap balls but also provided some good balls.

Terry & Lescott - are doing a great job, maybe a few minor issues.

Cole - Same as Johnson.

Milner - I have no idea how he manages to start a match. I know people say they need him for his energy, etc. After watching him for 3 games, he cannot track back properly, cannot attack. Constantly gives the ball away.Correct me if i am wrong but he has been the worse player for England.

Gerrard - has done well as captain. Assist in each game.

Parker - he may be a defensive midfielder but he cannot do anything with the ball at his feet. I have seen him time and time again giving the ball away, cannot pass to a player even though it might be 5 metres away.

Young - he is supposed to be more offensive then Milner but he cannot go past a player. Cannot retain possesion.

Rooney, Wellbeck and Caroll - have done well.

As a neutral who watches a lot of EPL, i believe that Milner and Young need to earn their place in that team. Parker needs to be taught how to play a ball.

Do you guys agree or disagree. Please do not bring club rivalry into this. We are talking about England here.

Young has been rather awful. I can see why Milner has been chosen over Walcott to start games, although I may not agree with it.
In fact, I'd be inclined to lose Parker, and play Milner in the centre instead.

To be honest, I can't really argue with any of that!

You sounds as if you're Mick McCarthy !

If you read that out to me it'd be one constant drone ! !

They've played no worse than Spain or Italy.

Agree with Milner - awful.

Gerrard, Terry & Hart would make the team tournament XI.

They've played well enough to deserve it, anybody who tells you any different is a complete k n o b .
