Greece won the euros will naff players. Explain that?
Its because they played as a team unit. Until England learn a style to play TOGETHER then manking on about how good individuals are is pretty irrelevant IMO.
Maybe they should understand that football is a team game, which lets be fair, is'nt hard as there are 10 other players onyour side aswell.
They are payed enough money to do that. They are not kids anymore.
agreed. The focus of our international game is totally wrong in that we're obsessed with individuals repeating their club form and hoping they win games on their own when the focus should be trying to adapt a team game, keep the ball by not over complicating the game.
Watch Xavi and Iniesta, for all the ability they have individually, they are TEAM players. 99% of the time they are playing 2 yard passes not 30 yard cross field passes. Spain play as a team, they arent looking at the one individual to win them the game. Same with Germany.
