England

[Jammy89]

I know we say this most games but. . .

They are playing crap.

I'm predicted 3 games at World Cup, maybe 4 if we're very lucky with our group.

unless we come up with a miracle and the people who choose the team open their eyes towards what they consider untouchables

I could only bear 30 minutes of watching that sh!te today.

its the same old story with England, the media darlings get picked. A lot of questionable selections over the past 15-20 years, that in turn has taken the shine off playing for England and it takes nowt to get a call up. **** me Sven picked a kid who had never kicked a ball in the first team. We wont make it out of the group stage at the world cup, the power men will persevere with their manager and the methods.
The world cup side Bobby or Venables, even Hoddle put out were exciting to watch and looked like they were trying, this bunch are useless

They have never had a proven manager since those days. We'll never get anywhere until we get a National Manager who has had experience and has vision.

I have never been a follower of the national team,as a kid nobody I knew in Wallsend seem bothered either,it was considered by many to be a team from London.When England won the World Cup the celebrations all seemed to be down south,most pubs didn't have TVs so I watched it at home,my dad was at the pub and then the bookies,when he come home he asked me what game was on the box.I went out that night and there was no celebrations whatsoever.

This is an excellent read and not only is M.M. very articulate in stating the overall approach to training and all things related to training, he actually makes the case for a full rounded individual rather than just a footballer. Maybe we should send this off to the FA along with someone that could interpret it for them into easily digestible chunks of knowledge? Better still send M.M. himself.

Wouldn't let me access the link says 404 error.

Agree it's the FA issue, don't they have something like 90% of the board members are over 70.

It'll be embarrassing in Russia, as per usual with England at a tournement.

So it does.

Good article, i like what he says about them having an eye on the playing fitting the culture of the club not just the here and now.
