If he'd have played for France or Italy and the like he'd have earned more caps.

i agree there, although when you didnt have the ball thats when he would become a liability.

TGM

Same with Hoddle.

Yeah I know what you mean. But I do think had Rooney not been injured we'd have had a great chance of winning that tournament. He was on fire until he got injured.

Brilliant

Love the way Martin Tyler says "with great irony of the head of Mick Harford".

Seriously tough thought was Harford. He had a head made of rock.

Vc,

The go to example isn't he.

Dare I say going back to Frank Worthington even if he'd sorted himself out off the pitch, England wouldn't have had a clue how to use a player of his ability.

Some players though dunc you have to give a bit of leeway.

Other very good sides have been built around such players.

its amazing when you think about utds success and how it could all have been so different.

had fergie signed Harford, Hirst not suffered a bad injury, or Dublin broke his leg at utd, we probably never would have signed cantona.

Even the great Sir Bobby Robson said he had doubts whether he could trust Gazza because he was a nut job.

Fortunately for him, he cast those doubts aside and let Gazza's feet do the talking.

I will never forgive Sven for forcing Scholes to play on the left just to play Frank and Stevie in the middle.

Yes, Scholes should've had that side built around his strengths.

Equally galling was Graham Taylor completely ignoring Beardsley amongst others. Despite the fact we were so dour and lacking in real quality, he didn't bother to use one of the most inventive players in the country.

How we regressed so much during that time was a disgrace.

Good old Turnip.

Him and that clown who was advising the FA at the time (forget his name now) put English football back twenty years.

Grass roots football is only now beginning to start addressing where it all went wrong.

Rositsky at arsenal has disappointed.

its amazing when you think about utds success and how it could all have been so different.

1 champions league win when scholes was in his prime? Hardly dominated Europe with him pulling the strings.

Indeed Vc.

By then it was all too late for Cloughie as well, he was on his own slide.

What makes it all the more funnier if it can be, is that when we created the Premier League, one of the main objectives was to improve our performances on the international stage. In other words to win something.

All the while though we had that idiot in charge.

Lets be honest, Mutu is the best shout. Cost a bomb for Chelsea, and spent most of his up his nose.

Torres is up there as well, 50m for that pile of sheit.

Torres lived up to the hype as a footballer though, he didnt live up to his pricetag at chelsea, but for 2 years at liverpool he was as good a striker as anyone in the world
