Boring, tired, uninventive, boring, predictable, lacking, boring chancers.
Right team won. Wish they had done it in 90 minutes. At least then we would not have to listen to the penalty nonsense for another........forever!
Thought Hart looked OK,
Johnson decent,
Lescott and Terry strong, although Balotelli made a few chances for himself,
Cole was his usual dependable self until the penalty,
Milner worked hard and got some decent crosses in but looks average when used as a mug,
Gerrard was our best player this tournament, but average tonight,
Parker flatters to deceive and was poor tonight,
Young's penalty summed up his entire tournament,
Welbeck had a few nice touches but did not hold the ball up for support,
Rooney was poor, especially by his high standards.
Carrol was OK when he came on but got no service for his strengths
Walcott threatens but rarely delivers,
Henderson is a joke at international level
Oxlaide-Chamberlain looks like he could develop, but we thought same about Walcott,
Baines, Jagielka, Jones, et al did not get a look in, which shows just how lacking we are in ANY depth!
TBH, I think England missed Barry as a midfield anchor and starter of forward movement. However, in Hodgson;s set-up he would have been nullified into chasing world class shadows!!
We need help......BADLY!
