TheInspiration 1 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Souness for England! 27696[/snapback] You could only seriously want that if you were Scottish (for various reasons). Umm, when was the last time England scored in the first half? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheInspiration 1 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Oh well I am quarter Scottish, effectively making me as much a Scot as an Englishman. But I do care for English and Scottish football, I'd support any British team in the World Cup, and Rep of Ireland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34138 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Another dull match. Is there really any point in watching England other than at the World Cup/Euro Championship? And yes, I know they need to play the qualifiers to get there, but they don't need to televise the fuckers. Just tell me whether they got there or not so I know whether to bother watching the finals. Don't even get me started on the friendlies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheInspiration 1 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Has Lampard even done anything good for England since Euro 2004? And has Hargeaves even done anything good for England since... wait... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34138 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 I really don't get Sven. He plays 4-4-2 in all the friendlies and then makes a mockery of them by all the substitutions that he makes, then when it comes to an actual qualifier, that's when he decides to experiment with 4-5-1.

LeazesMag 0 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 completely against Eriksson ever since the world cup match against Brazil - 30 minutes from going out of the world cup, 2-1 down and he took a forward off for a forward, or took a defender off for another defender [can't remember which] and didnt' get a single shot on goal. He then repeated it in the last euro, 9 men behind the ball all the time. So much for the tactical genius that the cockney journos all said we needed after Keegan......

crawford01 0 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 what annoys me is that any other manager would have been sacked after the brazil match never mind the endless affairs and crap perfromance in euro 2004! This guy is so incompetent! it is absolutly unbelieveable how he is still in work! Speechless! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheInspiration 1 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 It's partly the players though. It's an embarassment a team like Poland can beat Azerbaijan 8-0 when we can't even score for the first 50 or so minutes, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crawford01 0 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 there is nothing wrong with the players! Why can't anyone c that sven has not concept of shaping a team and using different players the only person keeping that incompetant so called coach in the job is the ability of the players we could do so much better with someone else in charge!

TheInspiration 1 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Okay but the fact we scrap 1-0 or 2-0 wins against weak opponents is what keeps him in - because we win. We should be winning these anyway, just far more convinvingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crawford01 0 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 i agree i was reading on the other message board someone saying look at his record! and i say look at the teams we have played! also y wait till the qualifier to try the new formation! y not experiment in friendlies! so clueless!

chip2388 0 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 This team is good enough to win the world cup make no mistake, thats the main reason why Sven is keeping his job the team is making him look up. His tactics are as bad as Souness and hes losing it. If we had a tactical genius someone like Morinho i reckon we'll be up there with Brazil.

TheInspiration 1 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 The friendlies just end up being a joke, because the first half doesn't go to well, so he makes a wodge of changes every few minutes in the second half, and players end up playing our of position. Now that's not experimenting to see if it will work, that's jsut giving people a chance and they don't have much to prove with the amount of time they get. And yeah, look at our opposition, we have easy groups (Poland the only threat now and I think we'll deal with them). Look at other groups, like the one that has Ukraine, Denmark, Turkey and Greece for example - an arguably the weakest team or underdog of the four has already won and qualified. Plus I also happen to think Ashley Cole is extremely overrated... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
