no prima donas in the Chile team, unlike England, players from Wigan, Forest, Cardiff playing out of there skin..England should hang themselves in shame
It helps to have players like Vidal and Alexis Sanchez.

we already know how to bottle penalty shootouts
Welp, it looks like trying to gain any kind of positives from this tournament is a waste of time.
ROLL ON EURO 2016!!!
It's the arrogance from TV pundits, the FA and possibly the England team itself when it defines itself as one of the major teams in world football, while at the same time dismissing the likes of Chile & Costa Rica, as "mediocre" at best.
It always makes me smile when the likes of Shearer & Lineker, ramp up England as world class prior to a World Cup, and then go into a panic when England are drawn in a so-called "group of death"; and they're then constantly back-tracking with excuses like "we could have used a friendlier draw!"
The quicker said pundits, the media & some fans get used to the idea that England is in itself just a "mediocre" team with mediocre players, the better we can raise our game and exceed these expectations in the future.
