From what I've seen, England may as well as fly home tonight. We've already lost to the Portuguese and I can't see us beating the Germans or the Czechs in the semis if we get there. They look much better teams.
Yes, I don't see what the Swede said wrong. Journos and pundits have been saying this for years even before all this home grown status stuff was created.
Re watching the highlights of England, I thought that we did dhow some ability and were not a complete washout. I still think we're short of the best teams though.
It's a much better tournament than I expected. The England game lacked atmosphere though. Actually England weren't bad, just didn't take their chances and were a little confused at the back.
Pritchard the pick of the England players. Kane hardly been in the game, had a good chance, but it was one of the rare occasions the ball had been anywhere near him. Kane again simply not being brought into the game enough.
I may have been half kidding with my comment at half time but no longer, they really do look like a side who couldn't care less if they went out in the group stage.

brilliant display from the Czechs with some really good goals.
comprehensive win for the Germans. that leaves them on 4 points, the Czechs and Danes on 3 points, and Serbia on 1 point.

Well isn't that something almost everyone agrees with?
Including Rio Ferdinand on the same page (linked in!)
A case of somebody feeling a bit precious?

Butland, Jenkinson, Moore, Gibson, Garbutt, Redmond, Hughes, Chalobah, Pritchard, Carroll, Kane.
Subs: Bond, Forster-Caskey, Stones, Ward-Prowse, Keane, Lingard, Ings, Afobe, Chambers, Targett, Loftus-Cheek, Bettinelli.
We need to be much better in controlling the midfield today and to get support to Kane. He was far too isolated at times in the opening match.
you'd think England were already through the way they've played. either that or they want to go out.
A few of them looked like they'd rather be on a beach than here.
And the referee has been even worse than England.
