He was in Euro 2004. He hasn't even been close since at international level.

They did the fundamentals correctly and built from there.

England didn't even do the fundamentals correctly.

I wish they would f**k off with this "We lost to ICELAND".

That is the exact arrogance that sets us up for defeats like this. Iceland deserve to be there. Leicester City proved what you can do with a well setup team of players who work together and know their roles.

We had none of that.

FGS - they are still demeaning Iceland just after they've won. These presenters would do your head in.

Looking at those names, I refuse to believe there is a single England fan who still stands by that stupid mantra of "he must be English".

They probably don't spend hours over-analysing everything and just play

We always do, too many players belive their own hype, and believe that they are entitled to play for the national team,rather than it being a privilege.

Pointless anyway - we'd still fail further down the line as usual.

In the Euros, They qualified from a group containing Portugal Hungary and Austria

Smug boy millionaires whose pride comes from their ability to score sponsorship/ drugs/ lamborghinis/ gilfs had their asses handed to them from a side who are hungrier, prouder and better organised, and who were totally underestimated by these boy men.

Agreed Brendan shouldn't be ruled out because of nationality.

Exactly, what right do we have to think that we are any better then they are??

We have consistently failed time after time after time, we do not deserve to patronise any team.

I honestly don't think it's that. Perhaps the strikers maybe but the entire team doesn't play like that surely. I think it was simply down to Roy not having a fixed line up in his head and changing things far too much. No one knew their role or had any time to get comfortable in their role.

Because the quarter finals will now be full of paupers driving second hand cars.
