That's the depressing thing. Who else could have gone? It ain't like there was an outcry of 'such-a-body should have gone' like there was in past tournaments (unless I've been too stoned to notice). In fact, we spent most of the post-squad announcement debating who was the shittest rather than the best.happychappy said:He's definitely improved this season and after Rooney is arguably one of the better of a bad bunch for England
Its all worked out rather nice so far, because this is the first time I can remember we've gone into a tournament without any kind of pressure or expectation. I was saying to a mate last night after the 3-2; now that we're nearly there, will we fuck it up against the Ukraine just because we know it's in our hands to qualify?
Supporting City and England used to be similar, but now its like looking at an inferior team and tactics when I watch the national team. We are so far behind its embarrassing. It doesn't matter who is up front.
