Bruce_Shark Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Capello had three training sessions to get England into shape, which we all know is impossible ... Hell yeah... ...when did us England fans lose our sense of humour :roll:i thought thats all we had left Until now... ...just believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 I have big belief that Capello will turn England round just like Sven Goran Eriksson, Steve McClaren , Graham Taylor, Terry Venables etc Enjoy the2008 UEFA European Football Championship, commonly referred to as Euro 2008 in Austria and Switzerland, from 7 to 29 June 2008 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jossyboy Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 had some good touches but needs work, but like we said he's only had them a few weeks, felt a lot more comfortable watching them than i did when mcclaren was in charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottf Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 they certainly TRIED to play better football and the early signs are encouraging- lets leave him to work with the players and he will come good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEKRO138 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Looked only just better than a McClaren England performance at times to be honest. But it's encouraging that he's picking the form players and he's only had a few days with them. Jenas and Bentley didn't let him down. I thought Ashley Cole and Wes Brown were shocking though.

scottf Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 agreed, jenas worked very hard and bently did too although you could tell he was carrying a knock. bridge is our best option rather than cole but i think capello will have learned that.

xircon Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Nervous first half, better second half. The 4-5-1 formation didnt suit us, back to 4-4-2 with wingers is probably the only option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottishdude Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Been watching African Nations recently so last nights game was a bit of a knock about in the local park in comparison. Fabio will do OK with the tools he has but after last night it strengthens the argument for improving youth academies. Most of last nights England players are surrounded by foreign talent when they play for their clubs and usually let them do all the "fancy" stuff. There is not one English player at the moment that you could put in the same sentence as the likes of Ronaldo, Torres, Drogba etc. Until J. Cole grabbed the game by the scruff of the neck and made the 1st goal, England looked like a pub team. even Rooney didn't show any strength in the box. As for Gerrard being voted man of the match, where did that come from? Ok he assisted SWP's goal but J Cole did more work to set up Jenas. England need to develop their own skillfull players and stop relying on the foreign ones that surround them in club level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tosh13 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Watching the match last night there were some poor individual performences,Gerrard did nothing for the first 60 mins but pass the ball into noman's land & he ran around like a headless chicken,I do not know who gave him the MOTM but they must have been watching a different game,Brown was plain awful,Cashley Cole should not have been on the pitch & I think Rooney would have made a better captain as the lad ran his heart out.Jenas played well & Cole & I would leave the 3 above out of the team and put them on the bench to show they are not the best in the country.If you took out all the foreign players out of the top 4 teams & made an England 11 out of the rest they would struggle in the PL.It is time they showed some courage when wearing the 3 lions shirt.

NEKRO138 Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Apart from maybe Bentley, not one of those England players could be considered to be the best player at their club team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
