just something like a minimum of 5 English players for every club's starting 11 would help. minimum of 100 English layers playing every weekend

We have a good group of young talent that is the key.Now we need someone in charge who will bring them through.Dare i say it we may need to look to a foreign manager.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
O ffs. We don't have a good group of young players. Seriously you people should actually try and watch football outside of the premier league. We go into every tournament will casual football fans claiming we have frightening young players which is complete and utter BS. Remember when wilshire was the future? A mega talented superstar in the making? AT HIS PEAK, what was it Pep Guardiola said about him? He said they have players like him in their B team. And that is the reality. We don't have anyone with potential to be world class coming through. Where is England's Koke? Where is Englands Rodriguez? Where is Englands future greats? They could probably get together an under-23 team from barcelona alone which could beat our whole country.
There is more to football than the premier league. Time to face facts.

Baines offensively is good but offers nothing going back
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Same with Johnson. In fact all English full backs. More interested in attack than defence

. That's what I've been saying. Can find a Sterling or a Barkley in the streets of Brazil
regardless, we didn't have to win tonight in a likelihood.
Roy should have took the point and focused on CR especially after the Uruguay result vs CR.
He took premier league management mentality to international football.
Hodgson must go.

For me jagielka has proven he is not good enough at this level.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I've been saying this for ages, decent back up but shouldn't be starting, but who else was there to pick from?
Also said the same about Baines but was met with the "PL team of the year two years running stuff" good free kicks and crosses doesn't help when you're defending.

We'd still lose to CR is Roy stick with this two man midfield rubbish. International midfield is won in midfield. If you can't control the midfield you have no chance
It's why the Italians always do well. It's why the Spanish won three in a row.

well we're relying on them now and a lot more than we would have done if we'd have picked up a draw.
For a start a draw would have given Italy even more incentive to beat CR.
In fairness it seems to me football is just full of average players for the most part, all coached in a similar fashion to work hard and keep it no thrills.
Where are the quality defenders and strikers we used to see ten years ago?

Not at all should be go. Why is it his fault and not the fact we have bad players. Uraguay were there for the taking but the players can't keep the ball. How is that Hodgson's fault?
It is a systemic problem within the game. And one which will take a generation to fix. I think the ground work is currently being laid but either way the premier league having so many foreign players will shackle even the good things we do.
England has made 1 final EVER. 1 final in a world cup or a euro championship. That is horrendus. All the other big european countries, spain, italy, germany. They all have made about 10 times that many finals. Even the like of Holland, underachievers, have made more finals than we have (4 times as many)

On form yes, but he was never going to be picked because he's seen as being divisive, according to the media reports from 2010, and 2012 anyway.
On form he was the best English cb last season though
