Surprise, Surprise... City are now to blame for England too

[banbury_blue]

So England lost last night through after being totally outclassed by what I thought was a very classy French display, so who naturally is to blame for this?

Well judging from the papers and listening to radio (loose term admittedly as it is Talksport) its is clear that 50% of the blame is Gareth Barrys, and the other 50% is Manchester City. We are at fault for England having to select from our bench to get their squad.

Conviently glossed over is the fact that Lescott was our best defender last night, Ferdinand was abysmal, and Jagielka should never be allowed anywhere near RB again, as Richards looked very assured when he came on.

Even last night on the commentary, everytime a City player was mentioned, it was thrown in how that player had been 'frozen out; by Mancini in the previous x number of games...

I know that is a rant, but it just pisses me off the way that everything is turned round so its Citys fault.. Okay Barry looked poor, accepted, but no more so than a lot of the others. The debutants were all shaky, Gibbs was awful at LB, Henderson got booked but did nothing else and Foster was at fault for the first goal

Grrrr

If they said anything else you would only be dissapointed or die from the shock.

Does it really matter for a meaningless friendly though?

Haha, how the fuck are City to blame for the total lack of quality produced by every single Academy in this country - apart from West Ham United (Ferdinand, Lampard, JCole, Defoe, GJohnson, Etc)?

The first half was Master v Pupil. Why players who get on the pitch for England seem to think they are playin' on Hough End for The Donkey's Fetlocks I just do not know!
