Im not allowed to resort to personal attacks so i wont.....
But thats the biggest load of shit ive read, only accurate things was the Lampard comment.
So i'll start....
Hargreaves, did well up until Portugal where for the last hour he was phenominal, complete example, never gave up, nearly helped us score a few times and never let the portugese do much, gave 110% until the whistle went.
Beckham s the only reason we got as far as we did, apart form joe coles goal played a part in pretty much all of them. Theres alot he does that doesnt get recognised and people slate him because he isnt as good as he was and he used to be one of the best midfielders ont he planet, give the guy a break he had so much passion, just watch him when he was off inujured in portugal match, he was like another manager.
Joe cole was th eonly player who tried anything which England so desperatley need, which brings me to Lennon, he did OK??? OK?? For a 17 yr old, inexperienced in both cluba nd international football i tip my hat to the lad, hes younger than me (by like 7 months or summit) and most of you lot and he was the only one who took people on with confidence - GREAT prospect, he brought life into our game.
Gerrard, OK he was average but hes hampered by Lampard, he didnt look his confident self, i want him to be captain, drop Lamps for Carrick, Gerrard will be supreme.
Robbo, against Portugal was great, kept us in the game, played well all tournie, perhaps was at fault against sweden for their second goal but the defence should have got their first.
The defence was avaerage, except against portugal, they didnt allow them anything untl closer to the end, when in the heat and 10 men you cant blame them, Ashley Cole carried on though, was still trying to make things and knock the ball forward, carried on running, didnt give up.
Crocuh, proved me wrong....especially against Portugal, the guys shite in the air but he was ver good with te ball in that game, not world class but he did well.
What you just said took away the best 120 mins our boys played and thats wrong cos they gave everything in that match against portugal, it took us the tournament to get going but i was so proud of them for that game!
2008 well be stronger, Lennon and rooney will be more experienced, hpefully with a different manager the tactics will be different, and Lampard will be dropped, not sure if Lennon will rpelace Becks just yet, but we need becks as he is always a danger at set pieces.
theres my 2 pence woth, i dont care if you like it, but im proud to be an england supporter as i am a United one.
