I don't agree with that....they should be achieving far more than they do! They're the best players in the land, getting paid a fortune, if they can't cope with a bit of media pressure they shouldn't be playing for England or indeed in the premiership.....IMO!
The press always look for a scapegoat when the shit hits the fan and it's normally the manager as opposed to the players. How many world class player do you think are in the current England set up....and maybe being a top 4 or 5 team in the World is the best you can hope for at this point in time.
