Lab 10,979 Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 it was pish though eh mate lol Its tournament football though baw, no team in there right mind will go out and play "total football" and get punted 3-1 I'll never get that. Doesn't show much hope for the fans does it if your team are already admitting they cant beat the opposition. I'd rather have a go and get beat trying than play defensive. Guarenteed if England dont qualify there will be pundits saying "If they just pushed on against France then they might have done it?".............Its football, the aim of the game is to beat the other team, not stifle them into a draw.......

Malt 379 Posted June 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 I thought England done well against a technically superior side. If they're to get anywhere in the competition it's going to be through disciplined performances like that one, not from dominating teams and beating them 3-0 because they simply dont have the players to do that against the top sides..

baw 4,360 Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 Stewie, you got a lucky header from a guy with a head the size of a small planet. I think your confusing being happy with the result rather than the performance. As malt says, your not good enough to stand toe to toe with France like Scotland did the fact Wayne wasn't playing speaks volumes about your new managers vision. Defend, defend and if they score, bring on Rooney. It'll never work but hey ho, your manager said a goaless draw would have been a good result, you must be tickled pink Quote Link to post Share on other sites

baw 4,360 Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 Aww pmsl I did ask early on was he playing. Ok I only seen some of the game. Did wonder why he was absent lol. Still, don't think he'd have changed anything. Your even sounding like a rangers fan, all there best players are the ones suspended or injured Quote Link to post Share on other sites
