England V Italy, Quarter Final 2012 (merged)
- Thread starter rickmcfc
- Start date
In the 1990 World Cup we only scraped through the group stages and the reason why we got through was because the players told Bobby Robson to change the system to a back 3. All through the early part of the tournament our media was putting a lot of pressure on us.

Fair enough, but I said 'remember'. You weren't even born then (WW I+II, '66), but me, I was in Italy and in England...
Fair enough but I think most people relate to things that may be outside their era. Don't take it the wrong way but I hope anyone wins it but Germany.
Rooney and Young should of been the first subs they were fucking shite it pisses me of that manager after manager pick scum players and leave them on the pitch no matter how SHITE they are!!
Problem is Rooney and young are around 26 years of age we av them in this England side no matter how shit they are, for the next 3 major tournaments while they are at the scum!!

What good does it do anyone to keep harking back to the second world war? Seems to have done countries like Germany and Japan a lot more good to consign it to the dustbin of history and move on.

Still there were more creative players in the team then, Gazza, Waddle, Lineker...
I enjoyed reading 'One night in Turin', a very good insight into the English Team during Italy 1990.

Exactly.
We need to forget this now. English people and German people have much more that unites us than divides us. We are all Europeans.
Hope the City lads around this tournament (and the world)got a real good look at just how sub-shite the cpmbined 'offensive' talents of Young, Welbeck and Rooney really are.
A lot of the English players are flattered domestically having technically gifted players around them; it was there for all to see tonight.
They're just 'bit part' players in a league whose appeal and sublime quality comes from elite international footballers.
That English side tonight would have looked right at home in the Championship.
